About this property
Appalachian Lookout RRG | Hot Tub | Wifi
Summary: Come experience the tranquility of Red River Gorge. Relax to peaceful sounds of gentle streams, morning birds, and the rustle of wind through the trees as you soak in the surroundings of Appalachian Lookout. This cabin has been curated to balance the refined with the rustic and is enhanced by artwork showcasing the flora, fauna, and history of this unique region. You’ll feel worlds away, but the cabin is close to all the area has to offer. Only 10 minutes from Slade!
The Space: Whether you enjoy outdoor adventures like climbing and hiking or are just in need of a peaceful place to unwind, Appalachian Lookout is your perfect home base amidst nature’s splendor. Located within the Cabins of Birch Hollow development, this newly renovated cabin offers serenity and privacy but sacrifices nothing of convenience. Restaurants, gas stations, a coffee shop, an art gallery, and a spa are all within about a fifteen minute drive.
Every detail of this space has been carefully considered to provide you an aesthetic which is luxurious while also reminiscent of the simplicity of life here in Appalachia. We hope that you will love the blend of modern comfort and rustic yet elegant charm!
Start your day enjoying the specialty soaps in the shower. Then brew a cup of coffee from the Keurig (K-cups provided), and take in the peacefulness of the porch overlooking the woods below or the coziness of the couches with the glow from the fireplace and the warmth of one of several blankets in the living room.
Meals are an event, not just a necessity! The kitchen is stocked with everything you should need to prepare a wonderful meal: pots and pans (including cast iron skillets), crock pot, toaster, blender, mixer, a variety of utensils, and glassware for every choice of drink. If you’re craving a steak or some salmon, then the gas grill on the porch is just what you’re looking for. Once you have whatever it is you’re going to eat, set a nice spot either at the table in the kitchen or at the table on the porch. In either case, use the decanter to pour a fine bottle of wine! If you’re not in the mood to make something involved, then several restaurants are a short drive away.
At the end of the day, stream a movie on the smart TV, cozy up in the chairs on the porch, stay warm and roast some marshmallows at the firepit, or soak away your troubles in the hot tub. Then turn in for a comfortable night’s sleep on one of the two queen beds with their luxury bedding, and enjoy the day again tomorrow!
Whatever brings you to the Gorge, we hope that here at Appalachian Lookout you find a little bit of peace, a lot of nature, and a reason to come back again!

Beautiful home. The driveway was a bit scary because it's steep, but we had a 4x4, so it was easy. The host communicated promptly. A lovely place to relax.
This cabin was beautiful. It was in a beautiful setting and close to trails, conveniently located. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. It was a treat to stay there!

The cabin was beautiful and comfortable and the location extremely peaceful, yet not far away from hiking and activities. The hosts responded quickly. We really enjoyed our stay and would absolutely recommend.

A beautiful property in an ideal location for RRG activities.Perhaps one of the cleanest rentals I have ever stayed in. One slight negative is that we could have used a few more kitchen towels and wash rags.

The cabin was everything it was presented to be and the privacy is exactly what the hubby and I needed. The touch of the ready available snacks was great to grab heading out the door to go hiking. Believe the comments about having an SUV to get up the road and in the driveway. They are steep!!! Our rental car was a small KIA and anything but dry conditions, we would not have gotten up the road to the cabin nor all the way in the driveway. Though we did laugh hysterically each time we came in and had to punch the gas to make the climbs. We grilled, used the hot tub every night and the fire pit. We enjoyed the property and the area so much, we never turned the TV on.

Carrie, thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re so glad Appalachian Lookout provided the peaceful, private getaway you and your husband were looking for, and it sounds like you made great use of the hot tub, grill, fire pit, and nearby hiking!
We also appreciate you sharing your experience with the drive. For future guests, the neighborhood is accessed by a well-maintained gravel road with a few inclines as it loops around toward Appalachian Lookout. There is one steeper section, but it is relatively short. Guests who are comfortable and confident driving on gravel roads should have no problem reaching the cabin, though we always recommend taking your time and being mindful of changing weather and road conditions.
It was a pleasure hosting you, and we truly appreciate you choosing RRG Getaways. We hope to welcome you both back for another unforgettable getaway in the Red River Gorge!
Great !The cleaning staff needs a raise ‘ it was the most clean of any place we have stayed and better stocked than any other

Good internet, clean, and comfortable. The drive up to the cabin is rough and steep. We managed to get up to it with our front wheel drive suv. Would not recommend a low clearance vehicle

Hey Nathan, thanks so much for leaving us a review. We appreciate your feedback on the road. After this winter. We recently made some improvements and paved portions of the road up there to make a smoother drive for our guests. We'd welcome you back to any of our RRG getaway properties anytime.
The cabin was stocked with everything we needed. The beds were comfortable, it was well kept. The porch was so relaxing to spend time on. The area itself has a lot to offer any outdoor enthusiasts. We will be back!

Hey Katie, Thanks so much for the wonderful review! Welcome back to any of our RRG Getaway cabins anytime!
Excellent property. We enjoyed our stay immensely. Loved the small extras. The games, coffee bar, snackies, and the baby toothpaste. (Sooo cute.) We cook and were thrilled with how equipped the kitchen was, and the pantry space to store. Great front porch nice, felt private with a table. We enjoyed watching the rain, or just sitting quietly reading. Also enjoyed the fire pit with the Adirondack chairs. Bathroom clean, shower nice with good water pressure. Beds comfy and happy to have a ceiling fan. Very happy with this property already looking for dates to come back. Thank you. Denise

Thanks so much for your honest review! We enjoyed hosting you!
The cabin was beautiful inside and out! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you would need to cook with. The coffee, tea, and snacks was such a nice touch. The cabin was secluded with no neighbors right on top or next to you. We were truly surrounded by woods. The cabin really felt like home and we didn’t want to leave! Thank you for a great stay, we will be back!

We had a wonderful girls trip. The cabin was so cute and cozy and made us feel right at home. The hot tub was clean and easy to use. The kitchen was stocked with everything we could need. Our only suggestion would be to have WiFi password posted somewhere as we had a hard time getting the internet to work to look up WiFi password from the website once we arrived.
