The log cabin on the Horse ranch was fantastic. Jade the host was great to work with. She was very communicative from a week before the trip. We got all the required info to check in and plenty of options for visiting around the area. We took her advice and went for an attraction which we were not aware of. Just 25 min from Mammoth caves and Corvette museum makes it a top spot to reserve. Our kids got to view the horses early in the morning and they were thrilled 😁. The rooms were clean and plenty of towels were provided for our stay. This place can house a party of 3 families comfortably. Would recommend to anyone who is visiting Mammoth caves national park .

This place was in the country, but not so far out that you could not get to the interstate and get to places (so close to Buc-ees!) It was quite, and off the highway. When pulling up, you don't really get a feel of how big the house is until you are inside. Seeing horses and cows around was really nice to drink your morning coffee to! Jade was a fantastic host, constantly in touch to see if we needed anything, offering places to go or see, she even offered a horse feeding experience with my 6 year old, who just loved it there! The house was roomy and clean. With clear instructions on what was where, and what to do for checkout. I could not have asked for a better place to stay!

Great place to stay in Southern Kentucky

We had a great time at this location. The property was beautiful, and the house was perfect for our reunion. The host stayed in contact throughout the entire process, and we were well-informed and confident she would meet all of our needs. We will stay here again if we get the opportunity. I would recommend it to your family as well.

We absolutely loved the home and property! The home was so clean and stocked beyond our expectations. The owner Jade was incredible with communication and helpfulness. She even let our 16 mo old granddaughter help feed the horses. I would recommened this stay for anyone looking for a peaceful relaxing time. Close enough to all the attractions. My boys favorite was Buc-ees LOL Thanks again to Jade for helping make our family vacation enjoyable!

Beautiful, Peaceful Cabin with Great Location – Highly Recommend!

Our stay at this cabin was fantastic! The property was beautifully maintained, spacious, and perfect for our family. One of our favorite moments was enjoying morning coffee on the porch while watching the horses—it was such a peaceful experience. The location was excellent, offering easy access to Mammoth Cave and some great local restaurants. We highly recommend this cabin for a relaxing and memorable getaway!

Beautiful area

This property is beautiful, we all wished we could stay longer and just enjoy the deck and fire pit a little more. House is very clean. Beds were comfortable. Be aware the bunk beds are not in a room, they're under the stairs, so not a lot of privacy. There were 8 of us in the house and it was snug-I don't think having the 16 it says it can accommodate would be comfortable. The owner is extra communicative. The lock on the door took a hot minute to figure out but once we did we had no issues the rest of the trip. (The owner did send a video on how to work the door). Kitchen is pretty well stocked with pots and pans, etc. I would definitely consider this property again in my future travels.
