We're in Lexington. Who needs to drive all the way to Gatlinburg to stay in a chalet when this is 45 minutes away?

Short trip for a relaxing weekend before the Holiday Craziness happens this week. It was exactly what the Dr. ordered. Unplug purposely from most of the world, hiked a little, watched football all weekend and hung out in the hot tub. We loved this location and will be staying again.

This was our second trip to this property. It's in a perfect location for access to all that Natural Bridge/RRG has to offer. The cabin was very clean, beds are comfy, and the option to purchase firewood was really nice. Would highly recommend staying here!

We had a great stay, and my only complaint is that I wish we could stay there longer. The property is exactly as described, very cute and clean. The views were amazing and the hot tub was a treat. We would give it 15 out of 10 stars if we could.

We loved this cabin. The location felt isolated but was 5 minutes from everything. Cabin felt new and very clean. You can stargaze and even see the Milky Way. Host was responsive and accommodating. Be sure to check out Toad's Bar and Grill just a couple of minutes away.

This was one of the coolest VRBO’s I’ve stayed in. It had plenty of space inside and outside. Everything was very clean and easily accessible. The beds were extremely comfortable and it was in a quiet, peaceful location. I would definitely recommend this property!

The shipping container cabin was unique and beautiful but the view out the window was amazing. The cabin had everything that you need. I’m not big on hiking but the hike to the natural rock bridge is a must. Breathtaking!!

Fantastic property and location to all of the activities in the RRG. Highly recommend this property. We had a great time kayaking the Gorge Underground and riding at Cable’s Stables. Plus great eats at 145 Roadhouse, Redpoint BBQ, and Toads BARn.
