Best place to stay!

This has been the best cabin we have ever stayed in. It’s peaceful, super clean, and just remote enough. We have already made plans to visit again! The host went above and beyond to ensure our stay was amazing. Thank you Hickory Cabins!

Cozy, Secluded Retreat Near Mammoth Cave

We loved our stay! The cabin was remote, quiet, and surrounded by nature—exactly what we were looking for. It was cozy and comfortable, and we really enjoyed spending our evenings grilling, sitting by the fire pit, and then relaxing in the hot tub under the stars. The location was also perfect—just a short drive to the mountain bike loops at Mammoth Cave National Park. Highly recommend for anyone looking to unwind and explore the outdoors!

Beautiful property

This is a beautiful place. Quiet and serene. Communication was good. The inside of the cabin was clean and well maintained. It was relaxing and really nice. However the hot tub was very dirty and smelled of heavy chemicals. Really wish we could have used it since it was a big draw for us

Great spot

It’s a nice little cabin in the woods. It’s pretty tiny. If you are a larger person, you probably will not fit in the shower. It is the tiniest shower I’ve ever seen. Otherwise it was great. It’s very close to Mammoth Cave, and there are a couple areas that have some nice restaurants, but you have to drive. Highly recommended.
