The Container Den - Shipping Container Cabin with Hot Tub - WiFi - Great View!

Summary:
The Shipping Container Den in Red River Gorge is a modern, innovative retreat crafted from repurposed containers. Nestled in nature, it combines a new design with contemporary comforts, offering a unique and cozy escape for adventurers.

The Space:
This cabin is cleaned and maintained by Amanda, the owner! She, together with her husband, has built and maintained the shipping container cabins for 9 years.
This is the latest shipping container cabin on this property in Red River Gorge! The designer has transformed this shipping container into a really unique and comfortable place to stay while you visit the Red River Gorge. The cozy space sits on the side of a hill with a spectacular view across the valley to the cliff line on the other side. While it is secluded, it is easy to get to. The road is paved all the way to the driveway of the cabin, which is flat and easy accessible.

The cabin is completely climate controlled (Air Conditioning and Heat), has Dish Network TV, Hughesnet WIFI, and city water. The outside of the shipping container was left as it was while being in use. All of the dents and dings give it the character that was desired. The inside is completely modern. It has maple walls, barn metal ceiling, hardwood flooring, designer cabinets and a 50 inch flat screen TV. The full bathroom has a spacious shower, toilet, vanity, and washer/dryer.

Enjoy the outside by sitting by the stainless steel fire pit or soaking in the hot tub while watching the cliff line be illuminated by the setting sun. Wake up to the sunrise through the trees and the birds chirping in the woods. Go on a hike in Red River Gorge and come back to the cabin and relax in the hot tub. All linens, towels, wash rags, toilet paper, and soap is provided. This cabin is the perfect place for two people to enjoy and be super close to Red River Gorge. It’s only ten minutes to Natural Bridge State Park, La Cabana Mexican Restaurant, Miguel’s Pizza, and the NADA Tunnel! Toad’s BARn and Grill is new and is only thee miles from the cabin.

Conveniently located, the cabin is just: • 10 to 15 minutes from Natural Bridge State Park, Miguel’s Pizza, La Cabana Mexican Restaurant, and the iconic Nada Tunnel. • 5 minutes from Toad’s BARn and Grill, a local favorite. Whether you’re seeking outdoor adventure or a quiet retreat, this modern, cozy cabin offers the perfect place to relax and recharge.

Good size for the two of us. Everything we needed despite rainy and snowy conditions that kept us inside more than we would have liked.

What a delightful abode! This cozy, clean, and modern spot is perfect for a secluded weekend getaway. With a hot tub, grill, fire pit, and a breathtaking view, you would be perfectly content staying put for the duration of the stay. But local spots (Daniel Boone Coffee Shop, for example) & a quick drive to the gorge & walking trails make it worth it to venture out. Cannot recommend this spot enough!

My wife and I loved staying here! Location was close enough to hiking spots, food, and more but was far enough away to feel secluded. Extremely clean.

Perfect size for two people, beautiful view, quiet and peaceful, super clean (like brand new), hot tub was fantastic, easy to find using the great directions from the host, close to everywhere you’d want to explore plus great restaurants nearby. We were so at peace we didn’t want to leave! Hats off to the host this place is a gem, we left feeling relaxed and happy exactly what we needed!

The Container Den Cabin was EXACTLY what/where we needed. The view from the patio area was GORGEOUS!! Amanda was a very easy host to deal with. Very prompt answering any questions. The cabin was immaculately clean and very well stocked with everything you could need. We can’t wait to visit again.

We chose this cabin for our honeymoon stay at red river gorge. It was very clean and just a cute little spot for just us two. We mainly just slept there because we hiked all day but it was great to come back to at the end of the day, sit in the hot tube and enjoy the outdoors!! Would 100% stay again!!
