Great short trip to cave country

We booked a last minute stay during our kids' spring break and were very happy with the home. There was plenty of space for our family of 4 and 2 small dogs, and it was well furnished with everything needed for cooking a couple meals at home. Quiet neighborhood with a private feel, an easy base for day trips to Cave City and Bowling Green.

Great cabin close to Mammoth Cave National Park.

This is a great rental located within a short driving distance of Mammoth Cave National Park. We would definitely stay here again. Our only issue was we couldn't find pot holders to use to take stuff out of the oven but we made due.

Perfect getaway for a group of friends

We stayed two nights with another family for a low key getaway for my husband’s 40th birthday. We grilled out, hung out by the fire and just enjoyed the downtime. There were lots of things to entertain the kids, from games to tinker toys; and the property was just beautiful. We will definitely keep this one in our list of places to revisit!!

Great location

A group of friends stayed here because we had a fishing tournament on Barren River over the weekend. We enjoy this location because there is plenty of space for our boats and there is a lot of peace and quiet. The place is very nice and offers a great place to relax. Plenty of sleeping options and plenty of options to hang out.

We decided to stay here as it was in between Louisville and Nashville on our Bourbon and Whiskey tours with the relaxing atmosphere with a fire pit, pool table and space to relax. The property was very nice and clean, only issue was were not able to use the outdoor deck as the flies were overwhelming. Overall a nice property.

Wonderful family getaway

My family ages 21 to 70+ had a nice long weekend at the cabin. Everything was spotless and the property was very quiet and relaxing. We really enjoyed the fire pit and screened porch. The cabin had all the amenities we needed. I especially liked that one of the bedrooms was on the main floor as my parents are elderly. The host was very responsive. Cabin location was also great and within less than a 40 minute drive of activities for all interests and ages.

We enjoyed our stay at Barren River very much. The kitchen had everything we needed as we like to cook our own meals. The rooms were cozy and comfortable.
