Perfect place to stay for hikers :)

We came down from Ohio to do a few days of backpacking in the gorge, and this place was the perfect place to get a good night’s sleep before the hike and such a great place to rest and reflect on the hike afterwards. Amanda was wonderful with communication and incredibly friendly. Would recommend for backpackers as a home base and also for anyone doing day hikes! Will be back 100% :)

Exploring Red River Gorge

On our way back from Ohio, we thought it would be fun to explore this area and go hiking. The cabin was a perfect location, and we loved the cabin. It was clean and comfortable with wonderful views. The hot tub was perfect in the evening after a long day of hiking.

Inside was excellent. Stayed in July so using outside was weather dependent… had thunderstorm and/or high humidity. Loved our stay. Only downside was the road leading up to the container cabin. It was narrow and meeting another vehicle on the road to pass was sketchy at times.

Cute, clean and conveniently located!

Shipping container cabin was the perfect retreat and landing place for our girls getaway. Comfy beds, pretty views and located nearby so many great hikes and activities! Visit the farmers market at the Natural Bridge State park, ride the sky lift and hike back down. Eat at Toads BarN and Girll and most definitely visit underground Gorge for a unique kayak tour!!

This has been by far, the nicest place we’ve stayed. Amazing spot. Great hosts. The porch is excellent for sitting and watch it rain. We were impressed to say the least. If you get the chance. Book it!
