Saltbox Cabin at Nolin Lake, near the boarder of Mammoth Cave National Park!
Escape to the coveted Green Acres Neighborhood on a peninsula of Nolin! Our "Saltbox" cabin, nestled near the shores of Nolin Lake, offers a delightful blend of rustic allure and modern comfort. Enjoy time on the lake, explore Mammoth Cave National Park, or go off-roading at Blue Holler Park. Relax on the wrap-around deck with panoramic views. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom haven features a full kitchen, washer& dryer, Wi-Fi, firepit, and more. Utilize access to our shared ramp and boat dock.
We've completely restored our cabin inside and out. Much of the furniture and décor have been custom built by your host from local reclaimed cedars and barn wood. Rustic charm, with all of the modern amenities of your home in the city, minus the city noise.
MAMMOTH CAVE VISITORS! Check out our welcome binder at the cabin. It has our shortcut to Mammoth Cave (25 minutes). It "cheats" google maps into taking you over the Green River Ferry! Mapping apps only like bridges. Be sure to let us know if you're taking that route so we can check the ferry status.
