Mammoth Cave trip

Cabin is secluded and nicely decorated. Has beds for 5, but unless I had elementary to middle school children it is better suited to 2 adults. It has 1 bath and the door has a slight gap upon closure so you would need to be careful with privacy for 2 couples. It is about 30 minutes from Mammoth Cave, but not a bad drive. Nolin Lake is pretty but not much to do on it if you don’t bring.your own boat, canoe, etc. It was a good place for us to stay for a quick 3 day trip. It had the basic items to cook a meal. Do know that this property requires you purchase insurance for damage so add that to the cost of the stay. This was the first time I was required to do that. We had a nice time and the hosts were responsive. The fire pit area was nice but we did not take advantage of it. The porch on the cabin is lovely. Thanks for allowing us to stay in your cabin.

Heavenly

Everything about the cabin was beautiful from the large porch to the fire pit. Very comfortable and relaxing at all times of the day even with some occasional golf carts going by. Driveway is very steep so an suv is a must. Once fixed (owner is in process) should be great. 8 days and would go back anytime.

Family getaway

This property is beautiful! Its was very home like vibes. My kids loved the loft bedroom! It wasnt too close to neighbors! We enjoyed sitting out on the porch, building a fire. There was really everything here that you needed. We stopped for groceries on the way, and realized we forgot a few things. But they had it!!! A very comfortable stay!

Weekend getaway to Mammoth Caves!

Very cute cabin nestled in the hills surrounding Mammoth Caves! This cabin is a little off the beaten path, super close to water features, and about 45 minutes from Mammoth Caves (and the closest Bucee's.....).The porch was our favorite part, we made all of our meals and ate outside for our three day stay. It's not an enclosed porch, but it's definitely covered and well laid out! Inside the cabin is a very nice layout, pretty sliding barn doors for the bathroom and master bedroom. Driveway could be a pain for lower cars, reasonable for jeeps or trucks. Note of warning though, locals drive through this area on ATV's and golf carts, so keep an eye out when driving to or from at night!

Beautiful and convenient

Loved the Robins Nest. Lovely inside and out. The porch was relaxing, Bed (we only slept in the downstairs one) was super comfortable, beautifully decorated, clean, comfortable. We were there to go to Mammoth Cave, and it was about 30 minutes away, so convenient and yet not overrun with other tourists. The neighborhood was peaceful. There are not a lot of food options or even grocery stores nearby, so plan ahead with that. Otherwise, we'd gladly book this again.

Adorable cabin in the woods!

Such a beautiful Amish built home in the woods close to Mammoth cave. Very clean and plenty of room for our family of 4. Check in was easy, and the home was equipped with a full kitchen, washing machine and board games! The porch was amazing to sit out and have coffee in the morning. Very quiet and peaceful. Would stay again!

Perfect!

A great base for exploring Mammoth Cave. After seeing the lackluster hotel options in the area, we decided to find a rental instead, and luckily we found The Robins Nest. The cabin is immaculate and comfortable. Kids thought the loft room was really special. Enjoyed our home cooked meals at the lovely dining table, and the porch was my favorite spot for morning coffee!

Great place near Mammoth Cave!

We love staying here! We have two kids, ages 9 and 13, and they loved it here, too! We were able to visit Mammoth Cave easily. We stopped at the nearby Dollar General (DG) for food one night to make dinner, and the cabin was stocked with everything we needed to make dinner easily. The beds were comfortable. The cabin was clean. We had a lovely stay!

Home away from home

We LOVED our stay here… we only wish we booked it for a longer timeframe. We also had the pleasure of meeting Nancy, the owner, who was staying in her other VRBO down the road. The pictures online do not do this place justice… it’s homey, comfortable, VERY clean, and so very inviting. The towels, pillows, bed linens, and beds were well taken care of. If we make it back to Kentucky, we know where we’re staying! Thank you Nancy and Ken for opening up your place for others to enjoy.

Great cozy retreat in a friendly neighborhood

We had a great experience at the Robin’s Nest. It was very cute and very well-kept. The outside was comfortable - we were able to sit outside even in the rain. The inside was cozy and beautifully decorated and SO CLEAN!!!
