The Space -
Full Moon, our newly restored tiny home, is situated alongside a perennial creek in the heart of the Red River Gorge. This unique stay offers beautiful nature views through its large window wall or from the shaded deck. This cabin is perfect for 1-4 people looking to spend time outdoors.

This tiny home is 175 square feet of efficient design. The main floor is furnished with a queen-size mattress and a full-size bed in the sleeping loft, accessible via a retractable ladder.

Inside the kitchenette, you will find silverware, pots, pans, plates, bowls, cups, and mugs. We have also provided extra items you might need during your stay, including salt, pepper, olive oil, a coffee maker with coffee, a kettle (the sink in the cabin is cold water only), an induction plate, and of course, a bottle opener. There is also a mini-fridge to keep any food and beverages nice and cold during your stay.

Guests may access a private fire pit behind the cabin if they need to cook anything too big for the induction plate or want to cozy up and catch a fantastic view of the stars.

(PLEASE NOTE guests should be cautious when using the fire pit. If it is too windy or you do not trust yourself to light AND extinguish a fire safely...please don't make one).

We haven't forgotten about the "bear" necessities! A private bathroom contains a toilet and an open-air heated shower. Guests must access the bathroom from the deck.

[BE ADVISED - during the winter, the bathroom is equipped with a camp toilet and is not heated. If you're like us and occasionally need to take a midnight trip to the restroom, please plan for the weather during your stay. ALSO, the shower water heater is unavailable on days below freezing due to potential damage to the heater. During warmer months, there will be a hot shower and a standard flushable toilet.]

While this cabin may be small, the adventure is anything but! Guests have access to the cabins' land, including a private trail that runs behind the glamping site and goes upstream to a woodland clearing where the creek turns and boasts a secluded waterfall. The entire property is yours to explore and enjoy.

If you like wandering under the canopy of pines, spruce, and oak, and waking up to the sound of the babbling brook, then this is the place for you. If you are the type to shy from a bug, turtle, or sasquatch, this may not be the perfect stay.

There is free parking on-site. Guests also can hike down a private trail along the creek to a clearing complete with a waterfall. Please be respectful of the land and don't leave any trash or personal items. Thank you!

NOTE: We have an additional cabin (Half Moon Cabin) that guests can book to accompany Full Moon. Half Moon is located on the same site, around 100 feet from the other. While the cabins and decks are private and entirely your own while staying, be aware that if another party is booking Half Moon, they will also have access to the creek, trails, and parking area. Please be courteous during their stay; we hope you make some friends!

We have loved transforming this small but mighty cabin and hope you enjoy your stay at Cave Creek!

Absolutely Amazing!
My stay here was BEYOND amazing. The entire property is just gorgeous and serene. As a solo female traveler I am always looking for a safe, clean place to stay-- this place checked all of the boxes. To be able to wake up in the morning and sit on the deck sipping on coffee listening to the creek to showering under the stars after a long day of hiking was just blissful. Sam was beyond amazing with communicating and answering my questions before I even arrived. As someone mentioned previously in a review, the cell service can be spotty (I have Verizon)-- but Sam did address this with me and provided the wifi code and I had no issues streaming music/Netflix. To be fair, most of that region the cell service was quite spotty so it wasn't just related to the cabin location. I was also there to escape the world, so I did not mind not having access to service. I would highly recommend staying here. I definitely will be looking to stay again in the future.

Weekend Getaway
We enjoyed the cabin, a little hot the first night, but what can you expect the end of July in Kentucky. The property overall was excellent and located close to all attractions. Will visit again. Fall may be best for these cabins due to the AC situation! Overall great stay! Thanks for sharing your property!

Awesome Getaway
My husband and I stayed for a weekend get-a-away. We have 4 kids so this was much needed. We initially reserved and paid for a larger cabin, however it ended up being booked, so we stayed in the smallest cabin out of 3. The host provided a refund and apologized. The cabin we stayed in was wonderful. Small as described in the listing, but very nice. The open air shower was amazing, and we had hot water all weekend Only 1 complaint (which is no ones fault), there was a copperhead snake in our fire pit the entire time. I did contact the host and a reptile wrangler was sent to get the snake (after we left). The creek next to the cabin (almost underneath) is amazing and great to sleep to the sound of the water. I would definitely recommend this place to any couple who just needs to get away. There is no service for any provider, so download your music before you get here.

Extremely peaceful and refreshing
This is the place if you're wanting to isolate yourself from reality and have the beautiful scenery of nature. Close to other nature preserves, and other attractions as well!
