Relax by The River

This stay was absolutely phenomenal! Susan was so plesant and accomadating. We had a wonderful time taking advantage of the beautiful wildreness. We rode our razors at the nearby Offroad Park. Hiked a small hike in the mountains and had the weather been warmer you would have found us kayaking the river. We had an amazing time and will definitely be back to visit. Thank you again Susan!

Short trip to ride KAT

It was exactly as described and had everything you needed. Bed was comfortable. Coffee supplies were great. TV worked great and remote was simple to use. Location was right on KAT. Electronic lock did act up on us and made check-in difficult. We were able to use actual keys for the remainder of time.

Best Weekend Ever

My daughter and I planned a weekend trip to Wildcat Off-road to ride our RZR for the weekend. This cabin popped up and looked perfect and it did not disappoint! Great location just a few miles from the Conveinance store and the park! Communication with Susan was great and my daughter loved the animals, the lights, and the games!!

Wonderful place, remote but convenient

Actually, we ended up staying at the Green Cabin, which is a delightfully eclectic spot with retro appliances and lots of fun decorations. The farm on the Rockcastle River features various barnyard critters, and seems secluded but is only 10 minutes from I-75. It was the perfect halfway location for us. Susan is a great host. We will certainly stay there again!

Motorcycle getaway with my son

My teenage son and I had a short getaway to do some dirt biking in the Daniel Boone area and Wildcat park. The cabin was the perfect base camp for us. The host was welcoming, helped us with directions to local trails, and generally made us feel at home. We loved that the cabin is secluded. Fire pit at night for hot dogs and s’mores. The inside of the cabin is spotless and has everything you will need (bring your own shampoo and soap;)).

Amazing!

Perfect spot to unwind after our long drive. Gorgeous property with a calm riverview out the back of the cabin. The cabin had everything you could have asked for. Susan was amazing and the farm fresh eggs were so perfect for breakfast! Will definitely be staying there again! Tucked away, but not far from gorgeous trails and waterfalls! Absolutely loved our time there!

Taste of Home in the midst of nature

Gorgeous cabin with all the right amenities! Susan is a wonderful host and even provided us with fresh eggs and plenty of tips of places to check out nearby. The stars at night here are breathtaking! Mornings and afternoons are filled with the sounds of the nearby river, birds, and wildlife scurrying about. My husband and I are already trying to figure out when we will be able to come back and stay even longer. Definitely recommend staying here!

Cute, Cozy and Clean

My sister and I had a wonderful stay at the Blue Cabin on the river. Susan was a wonderful host, very friendly, helpful and great to converse with. The cabin was clean and cute with all the matching linens and eclectic decor. The coffee bar was a welcome treat, as we love our coffee and it was nice to come in to a hot beverage after being out exploring or sitting around the campfire. The property was serene, located right on the river with plenty of trees and wildlife- we even saw two bald eagles flying over the river- must be nest nearby. Overall, we had a great time and felt right at home. Thank you for everything, Susan!

About the host

Hosted by Susan Jones

Host profile image
I enjoy people, social gatherings, working outdoors, building furniture, live music, art shows, pot lucks, home made desserts, gathering around campfires, and I love animals, outdoor adventure and wildlife. I relocated here Oct 2020 with my 12 pet chickens, kitkats & pup, pursuing my dream to combine all these things into a campground starting with cabin rentals on one side of the property, and working toward building a small campground on the other side of our ravine/creek, with goals to some day (2023? 2024?) host art shows, small live music events, cook-offs, outdoor movie nights, DIY classes, celebration gatherings, hiking & bicycling event gatherings (Red Bud Ride & Sheltowee Trace hike starts up the road!), and I'd love to host large-scale art installations such as the amazing metal and light sculptures seen at Burning Man. We went through a historic flood in 2021 so that was a set back (time consuming, mud clean up, rebuilding, restoring, $draining), so time was lost but we're back on track :) We've started building 4 additional small cabins on our higher ground, and a central shower/bathroom house (on the opposite side of the ravine from the rental cabins) to enable us to some day have such gatherings. The rental cabins will still have their own grassy areas & river view or mountain/grass & trees views.

Why they chose this property

I went on two 30-day land-hunt road trips in several states. I fell in love with this property because it's nestled within a national forest down a paved tree-lined road and right above a river! Yet our campground is very conveniently located just a few miles off interstate 75 freeway, centrally located within northern & southern states, tons of outdoor adventure, hiking, off-road trails, lakes, marinas. London & Corbin KY are nearby for shopping, movies, restaurants, cocktails. Renfro Valley Music Museum & concert pavilion, Berea art museums, numerous beautiful waterfall hikes, Levi Jackson Tree Top & Zipline adventure. We're on private land, private river front, within a national forest, on rolling grassy lawn. I live on the opposite side of the property in a house on 14ft stilts above the river. On this side of the property I have 3 pet donkeys, and sometimes host mini horse and other pasture pets for traveling nurse friends. Once your booking is confirmed, you'll have my contact info.

Feel free to reach out any time with as many questions you may have!
