About this property

The Cave Run Lake Cabin

Minutes from Cave Run Lake in Daniel Boone National Forest this 1200 square foot cabin sits on a quiet street in a nice cabin community.

The cabin sleeps up to 7 and has all the modern amenities. It has a large living room that can be used as a sleeping area and a large loft upstairs. This is one main room upstairs but split into two sleeping areas.

The driveway is big enough for your boat with the closest ramp less than 3 miles away. Extra boat parking behind the shed.

It is a short drive from Red River Gorge which has long been a favorite attraction to people in Kentucky so if you are looking for some fun, and peace and quiet, look no further and book today!

Perfect for Weekend Getaway

The directions provided by the host were excellent, and needed since we lost service about 15 minutes out! It's a cute neighborhood, neighbors didn't bother us at all. Hikes required a bit of a drive, but the place itself was very clean, warm (wood burning stove!). Bring your own firewood or be prepared to go find it!

Nice cabin

Enjoyed our stay. Cabin had more than enough room for us. Cabin was supplied with almost everything we needed. We forgot a lighter for the fire pit & grill & did not find one in cabin. There was a Dollar General store close which was convenient.

Beautiful area and great accommodation

My family spent a long weekend away before we move yet again with the military. The area was absolutely breathtaking. The cabin was all we needed and more. There was nothing we needed as everything was provided. Thanks for a great stay.

Beautiful property!

The cabin is beautiful and in a lovely location. The screened-in porches were especially nice. It is not a 2-bedroom, however. That's explained in the description, but it really should be listed as a 1-bedroom property.

Great little place!

We absolutely loved our stay! The screened in porch was a huge hit for my two year old! It was nice for him to be able to play and get some fresh air without have to worry about him running off. Overall a nice and cozy cabin! Would def recommend!!

Great time

The entire process from rental to checkout was wonderful. Owner/caretaker even checked the trash after we left because I thought we had accidentally put a bag of laundry in the trash can. Very accommodating and peaceful stay!

Stay at the cozy cabin

The stay was good, i only have two suggestions and that would be to have a fan or some kind of cooling source in the living room to help cool the down stairs a little quicker, second thing would be to clean a little better in the shower..Overall our stay was great there were lots of extra amenities thats definitely made the experience very at home like, we would definitely rent this cabin again

Amazing highly recommended

I want to start off by saying the owners are truly amazing! They gave us lots of advice on things around the area. Very friendly got back with me quickly super good to us! Home was very nice and clean! Love the location and neighborhood! Everything you would want in a little getaway, very nice screened in porch to relax on nice fire pit to sit at and have family time, close to the lake couldn’t ask for much more! My family really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely recommend! Gets five stars from us!

Great Hiking

I went with my roommates on our spring break and we all agreed to find somewhere relatively close to good hiking. This place delivered. The only struggle was that the nearest grocery store is 20 mins away. Besides that the check-in and everything else was easy and as advertised. I would offer my recommendation for anyone interested in hiking.

Worked well for fsmily

There were 5 adults and 2 kids for our stay and it worked out well. Although the property lists 2 bedrooms, it is really just one large room that takes up the entire second floor. So make sure you’re comfortable sleeping near who you’re staying with. We loved hanging out on the large screened in porch, especially since it rained a lot. Not too far from The Gorge Underground and Natural Bridge Park (little less than an hour.) Overall, we had a good time.

Comfy cabin

This cabin was perfect for our trip. Very clean upon check in and had everything you could need while away from home. Daniel the owner was available for questions, a short phone call away. We only had 2 concerns. 1 was the cell phone reception. But being in the mountain it was expected. And 2 we saw a handful of wasps inside the cabin. They were only inside and always came out during the day while we were gone. Previous guests have mentioned the wasps as well.

Absolutely breathtaking!!

Very cozy & family oriented. Could not of had a better place to wake up to & cook Thanksgiving dinner for my family. I absolutely loved cooking in the kitchen & sitting at the table with the fire going. Funniest time was our last night. The neighbor decided to blow his leaves at midnight as we just layed down for bed. And we all just laughed & laughed trying to figure out "who blows their leaves at midnight " instead of getting upset we all laughed. I even took a video of the noise of the blower just so i could share. I have family in Morehead so this will be perfect when i visit again. Thank you again for the hospitality. Absolutely a great family time & i will be comming back in the future!

A few issues.

The kitchen wasn’t furnished. No firewood for the fireplace outside. Grill was only one that was like at park. Many light bulbs were out…and didn’t furnish any to replace them. And you can’t comfortably sleep 7. You only have a bunk bed and a queen size bed. So maybe 2 couples and one child. And that pushing it. The location was nice and enjoyed the porch.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
We are the Farlow Family out of Cincinnati, Ohio. We purchased the cabin to use personally as well as to allow others to enjoy it. We will often come down and enjoy the quiet time away as well as the exciting time at the lake.

Please feel free to send me any questions you have about our Cabin and I encourage you to stay there, you will enjoy it!

Why they chose this property

After years of searching, we choose this property because of its secluded location, and how close it is to the lake. 5 minutes to the closest ramp, with fishing close by makes having a cabin in Daniel Boone National Forest a real treat!

What makes this property unique

Enough space to sleep 7 people with all the amenities of home. Large enough area to turn around and park your boat.
