ATTENTION: NORMALLY, I CLOSE MY CABIN THE END OF OCTOBER. HOWEVER, SINCE OUR LONG RANGE FORCAST CALLS FOR TEMPS IN 60S. I AM OFFERING THE DATES, November 8th through November the 16th as open for bookings. My cabin is an 1850s structure, so normally it's too cold in Winter months. After these dates, I will reopen in mid April.
My cabin rents for $90 per night, plus taxes.
Attention: PLEASE READ!!! Recently, Guest did not stay, after realizing i have a CHEMICAL COMMODE. These are found on RVs and big boats. I keep it sanitary, cleaning with Lysol and other sanitary products. The majority of my guests have no problem, especially guests that are campers, and sleep in tents. My 1850s log cabin sits on 5 acres with small shallow creek. has fireplace and outdoor furniture. and firepit Great place for children to run and play. My cabin has new AC and 2 large fans. Has a kitchenette, 2 burner hotplate, pots and pans, refrigerator, microwave. I'm 15 minutes from the ARK. Guests love the country atmosphere. Please read ALL!! descriptions and look at all pictures. My cabin has ONE bed in loft and ONE SOFABED downstairs. Please note!! Stairs are STEEP going to loft bedroom, but has a sturdy hand rail.
Sleeps comfortably 4 people, but room for 2 sleeping bags if you have a large family.

A step back in time!
Amazing! Surrounded by nature- a small creek right outside the back door. Cabin is charmingly rustic & authentic. The smell of the logs, antique furnishings & decor, authentic lean to bath house with clawfoot tub and propane heated water. You will fall in love with the nostalgia and charm. Judy was a wonderful host quick to recommend local places to eat explore and shop. This is a place to relax and reconnect. Judy hooked me up with some of her wonderful Ivy oatmeal soap for my terrible poison oak rash. So soothing. Highly recommend a stay at Judy's place!! We had an amazing stay!🙂😊😁 thfurnishisurroundings.

Judy was simply precious. She met us at the cabin where she went over the property. She provided the history of the property which was incredible. The cabin is primitive with a modern accommodations. There is a functional bathroom a step out of the back door. The kitchen area has a two burner hotplate, microwave, dorm size fridge, toaster and coffee pot. There isn't a TV but the cabin does have Wi-Fi. We brought a small smart TV for the morning news. The sounds at sundown are a reminder that you are in nature. The mornings were perfect for watching the humming birds eat. We did cook hotdogs on a campfire for the first night. The property is beautifully groomed and would be a great place for a game of cornhole or croquette. We forgot our cornhole. The cabin is close to the Ark Encounter and The Creation Museum.. If you have ever camped and love peace and quiet, this is the place to be. The property is almost like a museum , there is something to see at every turn. Many items are for sell. We plan on returning.

Rustic Cabin
Wonderful property to relax and unwind. We loved sitting on the front porch in the rocking chairs and reading. The host is a wonderful lady!! Make sure you look at all the pictures of this cabin. The stairs going to the bedroom are very steep and you have to utilize a “bathhouse” which is attached to the back of the cabin. But you do have to go outside to enter. There is an RV portable toilet and pump sink, along with a clawfoot tub and shower. Cabin was very clean and decorated according to the time period. The history of the cabin is interesting.

Awesome!
Where to start? Mullin’s Cabin is exactly as pictured. It’s beautiful, cozy, relaxing and just perfect! Judy was a wonderful hostess and we enjoyed chatting and getting to know her. Listening to the birds chirping away and sitting out on the porch was very relaxing. If you have an opportunity to stay at Mullin’s Cabin do not pass it up! We are already planning next year’s trip.

Rustic, quaint cabin
Where to begin... This cabin is very rustic. It is not for the faint of heart. But oh the feeling of home you get when you walk in!!! Ms. Judy is an AMAZING host and woman. She met me at the property, gave me the tour, then said good bye. She did check in to ensure i had what i needed! And was quick to suggest the best places for "local" cuisine!! If you need a place and space to refresh your soul, THIS IS THE PLACE!! The porch was as cozy as the rest of the cabin; a great place to enjoy coffee and the morning! The cabin was a little closer to civilization than I had hoped, but the locals didnt seem to mind the "outsider" looming on the porch ☺️; they just waved and went on. Thank you again, Ms. Judy!!!

Don't Miss Mullin's Cabin
Everything was wonderful! The quite cabin brings rustic charm to an otherwise busy world 10 min off the highway. Due to the amount of rain, our kids weren't able to play in the creek during our stay or build a campfire, we enjoyed our stay and they were still able to enjoy the open space. Judy had everything ready and prepared for us when we got there and was there to greet us, even though we arrived later than we expected.

I enjoyed staying there-although it took a little time to adjust. It’s very rustic. A step up from camping. I’m not a camper anymore but we had a wonderful time and if I ever get another chance I will do it again.

1850 cabin newbie
We enjoyed the peace and seclusion of the cabin, a beautiful hollow. It did take us some time to adjust to no wifi, phone, television, radio and modern plumbing. But, we reminded ourselves of what our accommodations were. We wondered about life during the 1800s having much fewer conveniences. The lighting was very low.

Peaceful getaway
On our way through Kentucky to visit the Arc and Creation Museum we stayed at this fun rustic cabin. It was a real visit to a humble historic cabin in the rolling hills. We saw deer and humming birds every morning while sipping coffee as the sun wakes up the black walnut trees around you. I would definitely revisit this cabin.

Miss Judy met us at 3 pm. She showed us how everything worked in the cabin. She had water for us in the small refrigerator, awesome milk. She left a bowl of fruit and cereal for breakfast. The cabin was clean and comfortable. We slept on the sofa bed, which are traditionally not very comfortable, this bed was comfortable we slept very well. Surprisingly the air conditioner that is located in the loft cooled the whole cabin.
