"A beautifully redesigned cabin nestled on a cliffside in the heart of Slade." After completion in the fall of 2020 it was dubbed "Hygge" due to the cozy vibe and Scandinavian feel that the cabin evokes. (What is Hygge? "hoog-uh")
It serves as a well appointed, modern, and comfy place to call home while visiting the Red River Gorge. It exists fluidly with the forest and rockfaces. The unique views from the inside tempt guests to leave its confines to explore the natural surroundings but also guests get to look forwad to delighting in its comforts upon return!
The space:
It is a great place for families or multiple couples. The communal space promotes togetherness and is all about being comfortable and enjoying each other’s company.
Other things to note:
There is another cabin adjacent. The parking and driveway is shared with this cabin. The driveway is steep so parking at the bottom is recommended unless you have a 4WD vehicle. Otherwise it is a 50 foot walk up the driveway. It is the expectation of our guests to respect the parking needs of the guests at the other cabin and vice versa. Although perched on a hillside, Hygge is located high above the parkway. You WILL hear road noise from the parkway. In the wintertime, the parkway is visible.
