Property was beautiful! Family loved the animals and hospitality. Met the owner who was extremely nice and knowledgeable about outings. Had a great stay!
Our family loved the generous outdoor space, the interaction with farm animals, the playground, the friendly farm dogs and the private porch and fire pit space at the back of the house.
Having a petting zoo in the backyard is an absolute dream come true for kids! One goat got out and followed us around. My daughter fell in love with the goat, and spent so much time outside! We had so much fun here!
We absolutely loved our stay here! The cabin was perfect for our family of 4. The animals are so fun and our kids enjoyed fishing and kayaking in the pond. So peaceful! Close to Mammoth Park and surrounding attractions. 10 out of 10!
Almost Heaven is a beautiful, fully equipped cabin on an amazing property. So comfortable and the setting is lovely. Wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the property's pond and hiking trails. We absolutely loved the animals near the cabin, enjoyed being able to feed them, and the greeting from the resident pup. It would be paradise for children!
The animals are so sweet and friendly we really enjoyed our stay. The house was adorable and inviting. The privacy was peaceful and rejuvenating.

So peaceful!!!
We loved our stay here at the cutest cabin. My kids loved feeding the animals daily, fishing, riding kayaks, and roasting s’mores by the fire every night. Very clean and convenient to Bowling Green and Mammoth Cave. Would stay again!
We truly enjoyed our stay! The cabin was clean and there’s plenty to keep a 10 year old boy busy. Loved the bear theme through out the cabin! Amazing place and we hope to return one day!
Such a darling little cabin - so well kept and everything has been thought of. Perfect spot to visit Mammoth - but have total peace and quiet.
My kids loved greeting the goats, mules, donkeys and dogs in the morning. not hesitate to stay again!!
Our family absolutely LOVED our time here. The cabin was very clean and was the perfect space for our family of 5. We enjoyed fishing, kayaking and feeding the animals. It was a short drive to both Mammoth Cave National Park and Nolin State park. We hope to make it back someday!
It was clean, comfortable, and plenty of room for all 6 of us! It was centrally located to all the places we wanted to visit; Mammoth Cave, Cave City, Glasgo, and Bowling Green.
Our family really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. My older kids enjoyed sitting on the swings late at night counting the stars. My little kid loved playing on the playground and feeding the animals carrots!
This property was awesome! Our kids (9 years old and 18 months) absolutely loved the animals. The pond was great to kayak. The cabin has everything needed including visits from the 3 adorable dogs. The property is quiet and the owners are on site for any questions. This cabin is a short drive to Mammoth Cave and to the local grocery for any items needed for your stay. Really enjoyed our time here and would stay again!
A great place to stay for the weekend. We loved feeding the animals next to the cabin and kayaking. We loved the dogs visiting (Lola, Charlie, and Bo). Everything you could need to cook was available. We made use of the fire pit in the back and made our dinner over it using the grill.

Wonderful home with lovely decor, comfortable beds, and most everything you would need for your stay. We enjoyed feeding the cows and goats right next to our cabin along with visiting the baby goats, sheep, and minature pony at the funny farm by the owner's house. We especially enjoyed Charlie the dog's visits and walking with us as we explored the trail behind the cabin.
Very nice, clean, quiet, relaxing place to go just for a little downtime. Jeff and his family are great people to deal with and get to know. Highly recommend them.
The location was amazing. Very relaxing and beautiful area. The cabin was very clean and nicely decorated. We had farm animals right outside that we enjoyed feeding and watching them interact. There was a nice fire pit area with horse shoes and lots of seating. The owners were super friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend this place. Also it was close to lots of fun things to do.
What an incredible experience we had at the Almost Heaven cabin. The cabin was beautiful and perfect. The atmosphere was remarkably peaceful. Staying at the farm provided a great well-needed change of pace for the family. The only recommendation I would make for the owners or managers is to update the listing in VRBO concerning the availability of meals since they were not available at this time.

Perfect Christmas cabin
This was our first time being away from home on for Christmas. When we walked into the cabin decorated for Christmas I was thrilled. This is the perfect cabin for my family of four. The owners were right there if we needed anything and we absolutely loved the animals. The cabin was clean and had everything we could possibly need. We would love to visit again. Thank you.
This property is beautiful! The cabin feels like home as soon as you walk in. My daughter loved the animals being right next to the cabin! We walked the walking trail behind the cabin and was a nice short morning hike. It's about 25-30 minutes drive to the Mammoth Cave visitors center. It was too cold to fish or kayak but the pond was beautiful. The screened in porch and fire pit area are great!! We would definitely stay again if in the area!
What a beautiful and peaceful area. The cabin was well maintained and very clean. We love the setup, very spacious and relaxing. The time we spent there was just what we needed. It was an amazing stay and what made it even better was the greeting dog. This dog would greet us every morning and when ever we came back from town. She was an amazing companion on our walks. She was the highlight of the area. We also had fun feeding the farm animals. We highly recommend this cabin. Mammoth caves are near so we explored them too. Overall great place to stay.
Great stay for our family (me, hubby, kids 6 and 8 years, my mid-70s parents). Murphy bed was more comfy than expected, kitchen well-stocked, and outside space had lots to explore. Kids caught fish in the pond, fed the animals, and we all enjoyed the swing overlooking the pond. Cabin was clean and drive to mammoth cave visitor center was scenic. Grocery store about 10 min away. Very relaxing place to unplug, though Wi-Fi worked well if you need to stay connected. Almost heaven, indeed!

Wish we could have stayed longer
We had an incredible time! Jeff and Laura made us feel so welcomed! From fishing to holding and feeding the farm animals, we absolutely hated we only booked our stay for 2 nights. We ordered breakfast from the meal package. The muffins were divine and the fruit was so fresh. Amish built cabins looked brand new, inside and out, even though they are 3 and 4 years old. Very clean and stocked with everything we needed to make our stay perfect! I definitely see why they decided on the name Almost Heaven! Kentucky did not disappoint!
This is a storybook Kentucky farm unfolded upon arrival! The cabin is spotless and pristine...the land is beautiful with its landscape and scenery...and the farm animals right next door is that extra touch! We made sure we ended everyday with carrots to feed the friendly goats, sheep and cows...loved the sheep...she had a whimsical personality. Our hearts were forever touched by one of their amazing doggies which we nicknamed her "Duke"...she was our first greeter and our companion...the bond with our family and her is truly a blessing to have...and we foresee a future visit soon...to revisit the beautiful cabin and country farm but even more so to see that sweet soul!

This is Heaven
We absolutely loved our stay. We were greeted by the goats and donkeys when we arrived. We all loved feeding them every day and the daily visits from the dog who was so gentle. The playground structure was a pleasant surprise for the kids. We kayaked, fished and swam every day and had everything we needed. Even caught a fish with the kayak paddle! Everything is well maintained inside and out. Had a campfire with the goats and donkeys watching. There was games and puzzles if we wanted something to do inside. Located close to Mammoth Cave if you are visiting the National Park. Would not hesitate to stay here again! Did not need to leave the property to find things to do. The kids came away with many good memories.
