Quick Getaway

My wife and I took advantage of this container/cabin for a short getaway. The communication was great, and helpful with directions. Container was very neat and well put together. We utilized the grill which was clean and ready to go when we got there. The 2 person hot-tub was perfect for us, and much needed after a day of hiking at the Red River Gorge.Overall great experience we highly recommend anyone staying in The Gorge to check these containers out!

Great Couples Getaway

We had a great week exploring Red River Gorge for the first time and had a great first staying in a container cabin! Amanda provided a clean, comfortable, quiet retreat for us. She has thought of everything. The hot tub was a great way to unwind after a day of hiking. We had cooler than normal temps this week so the hot tub was a great warm up as well as the little bathroom heater to take the chill off in the evening. So glad we brought an extra blanket at Amanda's suggestion. This felt like a great location for everything we did in the Gorge. We will likely be back again.

Red river Gorge Trip

I loved staying at Amanda’s cabin. It was clean, cozy, and the perfect location. It was hidden away from other cabins and had great privacy. I could hear traffic from the road, and occasionally voices carried in the quiet from other homes in the area but I couldn’t see the cars/road, and road traffic was infrequent. 10/19 plan to stay here again!

Camping with Conveniences

This is the ONLY way I’ll “camp!” My campsite was already set-up and stocked when I got there! My husband and I were in the Red River Gorge area for exploring and hiking. I’d heard about container lodging before and was glad to get to try it out when we were in the area. So many comforts and conveniences in one little box! Very clean and close to everything!

Great Container Cabin

I’ve always wanted to stay in a container cabin. What a wonderful first experience. Working with Amanda was so easy. The container is very clean. All the instructions were easy to follow. Would love to experience the other containers on my next visit.
