A little too rustic for us

The cabin is cute and cozy. Mrs Judy was so kind and hospitable. We wish it had a real toilet and sink. The bathroom is a lean-to and had a few spaces bugs could enter. (Be sure to turn off the light at night.). It is basically camping- lots of nature all around.

Our cabin experience

The owner/manager was very kind and pleasant to work with. The cabin is adorable and well stocked. The view is very pretty. It was close to our destination, which was the ark encounter. All in all it was a wonderful stay, and we would like to do it again, thank you Judy

Peaceful getaway

On our way through Kentucky to visit the Arc and Creation Museum we stayed at this fun rustic cabin. It was a real visit to a humble historic cabin in the rolling hills. We saw deer and humming birds every morning while sipping coffee as the sun wakes up the black walnut trees around you. I would definitely revisit this cabin.

Don't Miss Mullin's Cabin

Everything was wonderful! The quite cabin brings rustic charm to an otherwise busy world 10 min off the highway. Due to the amount of rain, our kids weren't able to play in the creek during our stay or build a campfire, we enjoyed our stay and they were still able to enjoy the open space. Judy had everything ready and prepared for us when we got there and was there to greet us, even though we arrived later than we expected.

Awesome!

Where to start? Mullin’s Cabin is exactly as pictured. It’s beautiful, cozy, relaxing and just perfect! Judy was a wonderful hostess and we enjoyed chatting and getting to know her. Listening to the birds chirping away and sitting out on the porch was very relaxing. If you have an opportunity to stay at Mullin’s Cabin do not pass it up! We are already planning next year’s trip.

Most Excellent

We were most pleased. Judy the Hostess was so gracious and met us on our arrival. We enjoyed her hospitality and appreciated her attention to all the little things that a traveler would want. In addition, we enjoyed spending time in a cabin with such rich history and found our time at the cabin to be a time of peaceful reset. We would definitely stay at the cabin again if in the area.

If you’re looking for a very rustic place, this is for you. We were used to not having running water for a couple years, so it didn’t bother us. Very peaceful

Little cabin in paradise!

What a great find! If you want to relax and unplug then this is the place to go. Very quiet and relaxing. The host is wonderful and offers a lot of amenities, many more than what we are used to. She met us there and showed us around. It’s just wonderful there. We enjoyed the front porch a lot just sitting, relaxing, or playing board games. We hope to make it back there at some point. Close to the Ark!
