The only issue is there really is no room for more than one car at a time and no place to move over to let anyone pass.

Great Getaway!

Loved the Box Car Cabin! It was the perfect location to visit many different trails for hiking, kayaking adventures, and much more! The hot tub was the perfect way to relax after a day of discovering the Red River Gorge trails.

Fathers Day Trip

This little cabin was perfect for our small family fathers day celebration. The space was comfy and well stocked with everything we needed. The host was very responsive with any questions or concerns we had. The lights out back created a wonderful atmosphere at night and the hot tub was very relaxing! We would definetly consider staying here again.

Nice place!

We were very happy with our stay overall. It was just as advertised. The only improvement I would consider would be the mattress. It was too soft for us, but that is just an individual preference. Very clean, especially for a pet friendly cabin. Would recommend to others.

Box Car Cabin

The Box Car Cabin was cozy, clean, and spacious. The lights, chairs, and picnic table in the back were a nice touch. The kitchen was missing a few items (toaster, wine opener), but besides that was well stocked with cooking equipment and utensils. There is a lot of construction going on in the area, but didn't bother us too much. The private hiking trails within walking distance were a huge bonus!

Safety Concern

The stay was amazing until the last night. We were outside in the back when two men walked in on us at 9pm AND THEY USED OUR CODE to get in. They claimed it was a double book. We then called the host to get clarification and to have our code changed due to safety concerns. They said they were going to send someone out to change the code. Nobody ever came. After 2 hours we just left because we didn’t feel safe as women staying there by ourselves with men out there who had our code. This was a safety concern and an absolute killjoy to our whole booking. It was a bachelorette party with the last night (same night as incident) being the main night. Wouldn’t stay here again personally.

Incredible retreat

We loved being able to hike all day, and have a cozy place to return to in the evening. All items needed for a hearty breakfast and a grilled dinner! Kitchen is well equipped and we were grateful for the dish soap, laundry detergent for our hiking clothes and the three rolls of toilet paper! Beds were comfortable and cozy, everything was incredibly clean. Neighborhood is quiet and relaxing while being close to all the activities. Enjoyed the fire pit and the hot tub after a long day of hiking! Can’t say enough great things about this place!
