This little piece of paradise was so perfect for a weekend getaway. Great food all around us, and probably on of the cleanest places ever. Had everything we needed plus more. Hot tub was a plus and the kitchen and bathroom was top notch. Hope to stay in all the other rentals this host has

We had a great one-night stay at this shipping container cabin. The place was spotless and had everything we needed. The hot tub was definitely the highlight and a perfect way to wind down after exploring the area. The wooded setting near Red River Gorge makes it feel like a true getaway. Would absolutely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for something unique and well-kept in the area.

This is the cutest, cleanest, unique, private, and accommodating shipping container ever! We celebrated my husbands 50th birthday here and had the most amazing time. The hot tub was perfect after a day of hiking. And the mattress was so comfortable for a great nights sleep! We ate at Toad’s nearby and used the grill on site. We hiked the gorge and enjoyed the peace and serenity at the shipping container. Thank you for a wonderful and relaxing stay!

Why they chose this property

I chose this property in Red River Gorge all the way back in 2012. It’s in the perfect location for everything RRG. It’s secluded but the road is paved and we have city water instead of well water.
