We look forward to sharing our personal retreat cabin with you and your friends and family. There are coon dogs at a neighbors house over the mountain. They can bark for an extended period. You can't hear them inside however if you are on the porch, you will hear them. For most of our guests they aren't noticable but for a few, they can be annoying. Also you can park a boat or trailer up to 24 feet. 40 foot will be to long to get up the road to the cabin.
Book with confidence. Sacred Winds and our other cabin Heaven's Porch has become a refuge annually for so many. It really is high quality, peaceful and an incredible value.

We absolutely loved hosting the Olson family at Sacred Winds ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
They had the greatest things to stay about their stay at the cabin including the most comfortable beds you'll ever sleep in. The upscale amenities are included in the best value you'll find!
What would cost $400 a night in the Smoky Mountains, we take great pride in sharing our home with quality people. For couples looking for a romantic getaway or time to breath. For families looking for a vacation and time to reconnect. For small groups looking for a retreat.
We love serving you.
Check-in/check-out was great. Cabin located in convenient location - easy to get in and out.

We really enjoyed hosting this couple at our private vacation home at Yatesville Lake State Park. We take great pride in sharing our cabin with guests like this. 5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We look forward to having them back.
Loved the cabin, location and hot tub. Mostly clean (except for some previous guests tooth brush, toothpaste, deodorant etc left in the bedroom side table, and mop/wash clothes left in the washer). Good communication with host, except that 3 outdoor security cameras on the property are not mentioned in the listing. Would have been better if some closets were accessible to guests to hang clothes. All the Amish furniture in the cabin were cool. We were okay, but if your group isn't just family, having just one shower could be a bummer. Overall, we were happy with our stay at Sacred Winds

We enjoyed hosting the Kazhamathil family at our private vacation home in Eastern KY. We take great pride in sharing our home with quality guests.
The security cameras are decoys and don't record. Over the last 10 years and being ranked the #1 cabin rental in Kentucky, we work to communicate instantly with our guests on any questions they may have.
So thankful that this family had a great time and we look forward to having them back for years to come.

How amazing is this story. We've had weddings, lots of Honeymoon's, and everyone always comes back to stay. This is so great. We look forward to being a part of your family for years to come. What's ours is yours.
It was a beautiful weekend to enjoy the fall weather. Sitting in the rocking chairs on the porch enjoying the amazing view was the high light of the trip.

Jacki and her family are the best! They keep coming back, year after year. This is such a great testament to the value and quality of our cabin. I know its never going to please everyone, but the Elam's make it worth sharing.
Highly recommended! This was a perfect peaceful getaway. The house is beautiful and private. We have stayed in Kentucky 3 times and this is our favorite. Can’t wait to go back!
Great location, accommodating host, beautiful home with amazing amenities. We came here for trout fishing and this home is within a hour away from Yatesville, Paintsville and Grayson. Aaron was very helpful and flexible when we decided at the last minute to stay another day. Thanks for the use of your home.
Cabin was clean. Hot tub was clean and big. We had a great time.

Denise and her family were great guests at our private vacation rental in Eastern KY at Yatesville Lake State Park. We take great pride in sharing our home with guests like this.
Stayed 7 nights with our son and his wife. Was perfect for relaxation away from the tussles of work and be with family. The hot tub and fire pit with its secluded surrounding made the best atmosphere at night to joke, laugh and make memories. The property Host, Aaron quickly responded to questions and gave my son and I some of his favorite fishing spots that were great and allowed us to see some amazing sites. With a Barbecue grill for a outside cookout and all the amenities needed I recommend Sacred Winds Cabin to anybody who's looking to get away for a few days.
Wanted something a few hours from home. Very quiet and secluded just what we needed. Romantic time for just us without the hustle and bustle of Gatlinburg.
This is the private cabin of the Boggs family from Columbus, OH.
