This is the cutest, cleanest, unique, private, and accommodating shipping container ever! We celebrated my husbands 50th birthday here and had the most amazing time. The hot tub was perfect after a day of hiking. And the mattress was so comfortable for a great nights sleep! We ate at Toad’s nearby and used the grill on site. We hiked the gorge and enjoyed the peace and serenity at the shipping container. Thank you for a wonderful and relaxing stay!
This place was different than any other place I’ve stayed at; so cool! It was very comfortable and super clean. The setting is perfect for a quiet getaway, but the location is close to everything. We had a great stay!
Clean, lovely, expertly-furnished cabin. Loved the novelty of the container cabin and the secluded yet easily accessible location. Hot tub nice and easy to use. Host extremely helpful. Highly recommend!
Loved using the hot tub in the mornings! Great hiking, loved the sky lift. Enjoyed Toad's, Miguel's and Thatcher's for meals. The container had everything we needed! Thanks for a wonderful anniversary trip!

This is a great property we used for a long weekend. Quiet and private yet not a long drive to hiking trails and restaurants. Owner is easy to work with and very kind. Appreciate the use of your property.
Very nice little cabin. Super clean and has everything you and your significant other would need. The hot tub is perfect for 2 and it’s super peaceful out in the woods. 100% would recommend. Great communication with the owner.
Perfect cabin for two. Very clean. Everything perfect as pictured. WiFi excellent. Love the container to cabin conversion - definitely completed by a craftsman. Location was convenient to both state and national parks. Hiking, activities, and restaurants within a few minutes commute. Enjoyed the hot tub after hiking. Would stay again!
Secluded and cozy getaway in the woods. Check-in was very easy, the place was very clean. Water pressure and heat were phenomenal. Internet service was surprisingly stable and fast. Our only minor complaint is that the final road to the place is a little tight/steep, so careful if you're in a smaller vehicle!
Absolutely the coziest little vacation spot we could’ve dreamed of! Perfect spot to celebrate and relax for our babymoon. Everything was so beautifully furnished and felt brand new. Very clean, with everything we needed. We enjoyed the hot tub, grill, and outdoor firepit. Also loved the minimal clean up expected of us. Would love to stay here again!
My husband and I wanted to get a long weekend away in the Red River Gorge area. We were celebrating our anniversary and looking for somewhere peaceful and cozy to stay. This place was as great as it could get. Amanda is a wonderful host and there was plenty of attention to detail put into the container homes. We were very impressed and would highly recommend her as a host and the container home we stayed in. Keep helping make amazing memories for people, Amanda. You’re great at it!

Nice cozy container cabin. The location was excellent.
My fiancé and I had a wonderful time! The cabin was so cozy and clean. A great secluded spot for a weekend trip. The place has everything you need for a trip. It was a cool experience to stay in a shipping container. The outside area was perfect. The host was easy to connect with. I definitely recommend staying here!
I chose this property in Red River Gorge all the way back in 2012. It’s in the perfect location for everything RRG. It’s secluded but the road is paved and we have city water instead of well water.
