The Willow: Secluded, Affordable Family Friendly Cabin, close to Red River Gorge

Perched perfectly on a small knob overlooking a 70+ acre private land. The Willow cabin is nothing short of “homey”. Come snuggle up with a blanket, grab a cup of hot chocolate and experience what it’s like to watch the snow fall from the comforts of a warm and cozy cabin. Time seems to be slower, noise is nonexistent, air is cleaner, and peace is in abundance! The Willow has the best seat in the house for viewing natures artwork! If you are more of an adventurous type, take a short scenic drive to Red River Gorge and view the numerous arches that are best seen during the winter months when the trees foliage is gone. Or bring your SXS and enter Hollerwood ATV Park in under 2.5 miles. The WIllow cabin is a true hidden gem, enjoyed by all. Bring your family, your friends or enjoy a nice retreat for two.

Secluded sanctuary
This was a quiet, inspiring week to get away for a personal writing/composing retreat, along with our Siberian Husky, Nadia. Erica was such a fantastic, helpful host--always promptly responding to any questions I had. From the stellar reviews, I knew the cabin would be terrific, but it exceeded all expectations. It was cozy (but quite spacious) and comfortable, with lots of thoughtful touches throughout--and with modern tech available. I prepared all meals there during my stay, and the kitchen was well-equipped. It took a while to get used to driving on the essentially one-lane, winding roads for several miles to access the cabin, but it contributed to the experience! The husky and I daily hiked various trails in and around the Red River Gorge, and seeing and driving through the Nada Tunnel was a highlight! Many thanks to Erica for creating such a lovely retreat space!

Awesome family friendly cabin!
We had a great weekend at Red River Gorge. This was the perfect spot for me and my 2 kids. We had never been here before so did not know what to expect. We got a little confused about the directions but our host was very quick to respond and helped us get there safely. The cabin itself was clean, scenic and comfortable. Only about a 25 minute drive to the state park and attractions. Games and ping pong table were an added bonus for the kids. I HIGHLY recommend staying here. 👍👍

Secluded cabin
We stayed four nights at this cabin in the Red River Gorge area. The pictures accurately depict the property and the host was helpful with anything we needed. The cabin was well equipped and decorated nicely. Pick up groceries before your arrival as the winding roads make for a longer trip to the store.

Peaceful Cabin in the Woods
My daughter and I stayed at this very clean and super cute property while visiting RRG. It was such a peaceful setting and had everything you need to feel right at home. The cabin is off the beaten path, which is something we were looking for, so prepare to drive a bit if you are planning on visiting Natural Bridge and the other local attractions. We had a great stay and hope to return!

Secluded get away... worth the trek!
This cabin is a retreat! Hammocks in the trees and on the porch... so peaceful! It is secluded, so nowhere is quick to get to, so plan accordingly! Lots of things to do & eat, but lots of things are closed on Tuesdays & Wednesdays, so check that out ahead of time. The owners are super quick to respond to any questions, so helpful. We would definitely stay again!

Great cabin stay
We had a lovely time in the cabin! It was cute, clean, and well-maintained. Our host was friendly and responsive to any questions we had. It’s tucked in the woods, away from distractions, but includes reliable wi-fi and streaming options. There’s a fire pit as well. It was the perfect mix of relaxing with the technology to do a little work if you are so inclined!

Peace and Serenity
If you’re looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, this is the place for you. Very well equipped property with every amenity and B&B type touches in a gorgeous remote location with rolling hills and beautiful scenery. The place is impeccably clean with all the comforts of home. We stayed for two nights in late March. Unprecedented high winds caused an area-wide outage a few hours before our arrival and throughout our stay. This was no fault of the owner/property manager. Erica was in constant communication with us on power company updates, and even offered to bring over a generator to power a few things. The cabin is so well equipped, a generator was not needed. A little conservation made the hot water last, battery powered lanterns were already on site, charcoal grill and fire pit allowed us to cook using the cast iron skillets provided. We used our cooler for refrigeration. Cabin retained most of the heat and bedding was warm and comfy - we didn’t even need to wear extra layers. Erica is an excellent host and I highly recommend this property. If we are ever in the area again, we will definitely book again.

We liked the cabin very much. It is located in a remote area and was little hard to find but worth it. If you're looking for a get-away from everything, this is the place for you. The only things you will hear are birds and frogs. No traffic, trains or planes. And it is located near Natural Bridge and Gorge Underground which we recommend.
