Great getaway!
We loved how secluded it was, but close to the park and restaurants. The hot tub and fire pit were a nice addition. It was well decorated and felt upscale. I liked that it had k-cups. Love the travel pics on the wall. We had a great time and enjoyed the accommodations. Overall a wonderful get away. We will definitely be back!

Peaceful, super clean!
What a wonderful location! My husband and I thought it was likely a new property given the condition and cleanliness but the guest book shows notes back to 2022. Incredibly clean! Definitely bring a blanket for the couch staying in warmer months. It’s right under the heating/cooling unit and gets cold. The driveway is SUPER steep so be prepared. lol

Thank you for the great written review! It sounds like you enjoyed your stay! I wish you would have let me how I could have made it better before you rated it 4 out of 5 stars. In the instructions and info that I sent out before your stay I did mention bringing a blanket. I also did notice that the air conditioner vent was angle straight down and blowing on the couch. This could have been changed with the air conditioner remote that is mounted on the wall by the light switch. About the driveway...for future guests...there is a short section that is fairly steep. It is about 50 feet (four car lengths) long and is concrete. Two-wheel drive vehicles go up and down it all the time without a problem. There are definitely steeper roads and driveways in Red River Gorge. It's a common thing in RRG.

Comfort in nature
Not only is this rental well stocked with amenities, so cute and comfortable, but it is also sitting in the midst of trees so you feel surrounded by nature. We stayed for a birthday celebration weekend and enjoyed the nearby hiking spots in red river gorge! The coffe shop in Stanton was awesome and the bourbon balls at the candy shop were delicious! The host is very responsive and has ensured that you will have everything you need to enjoy your stay!

The property was very clean and the owner had everything you needed! One tip, just be careful when walking between the hot tub and the edge, if not careful you can take a tumble down the hill.

Hi Nadean! Thank you for the five star review! Glad you enjoyed the cabin. I just want to make a note for future guests.....the walk way and patio around the cabin and hot tub is at least six feet wide, level, and the “edge” is lined with rocks. I guess you could fall but there is also a possibility of falling anywhere. If you are a potential future guest, please look at the pictures in the listing.

We had a lovely time. It was easy to check in. Hot tub was really nice after hiking. Host left some K-cups so we were well caffienated. Shipping container concept is really cool and this particular one was well laid out. Washing machine was definitely nice to have. Thanks for a great stay!

Sweet Getaway
Looks exactly as pictured except new outdoor chairs even more comfortable than ones pictured. Driveway has a bit of a steep part but my Camry did fine with it so no worries in good weather. Convenient to Red River Gorge and Natural Bridge made it a great place to stay for a solo retreat. Bed so comfy I didn’t want to get out in the mornings but the couch is really comfy too! The portable cooktop and microwave and kerig made eating in easy and nice deep sink made washing dishes a breeze too. Great views from inside made me feel like I was staying in a tree house. Loved it!!!

A Perfect Romantic Getaway!
My husband and I stayed here for a couple of nights to get away from everything and focus on each other, and we both absolutely loved it. It was so clean and cozy and just what we were looking for. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. We will definitely be coming back in the future! The bed was so comfortable and the hot tub was great as well! Our only issue was that we should have booked it for a longer stay! We were bummed to have to leave!

This container was amazing and the hosts were so so nice. The space was clean, cozy, secluded, romantic. The hot tub was the perfect temperature and the lights at night, there are no words really for how wonderful this place and the hosts were. 100 stars and more I am going to recommend this to all of our family and friends. ❤️

Little slice of heaven
This rental was very clean and comfortable with all that we needed. Our days were full of activities in the Gorge and with a few bourbon tours, and our nights were spent relaxing here. We had to spend the first few nights inside due to rain and storms, and we were very comfortable doing so. Would definitely recommend to others that are heading to the area.

Can’t wait to go back
Property is accurately depicted on the site. Experienced absolutely no problems during our 3-day stay. Location is close to many attractions in the RRG. The cabin is priced fairly, was very clean and well-provisioned with all a couple needs to be comfortable. Directions to the property were spot on as were the helpful instructions provided once there. WI-FI is a little slow and we only had the tv on for a few minutes during our stay so can’t comment on that. We went to the RRG to get away from all that anyway. Had a lovely time exploring a wonderful area. Only problem we have is deciding upon a date this fall to return!
