A recent addition to our already spacious and secluded bed and breakfast.&nbsp; A tremendous wooded area with trails, woods, water and an awesome camping/fire pit area!&nbsp; If you enjoy watching the stars after a delicious, over the campfire cooked meal, you'll love the sights, sounds and smells of backwoods Kentucky. The land is bordered by a winding, twisting river that is ample enough for bathing, boating and/or fishing that seems to go on for days. Idea for overnight stays, weekend getaways or family or group gatherings.Learn more about this land:A long flowing log trail that travels through gorgeous woods and time then&nbsp;temporarily halts at the centerpiece campsite for fire, food and laughs.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Space around a stone framed fire pit for up to 5 tents to enjoy peace or family at the same time.&nbsp; Off you continue along a groomed 4 wheel trail that guides you past our deer plot, beaver workings, stretches of wild low lands and a refreshing creek for swimming, fishing, boating, you name it!&nbsp; The main camp site is about a :15 minute hike off the main road but close enough to receive support if required.

Family cookout next to one of the Twisted River sites.  

I'm focused on the kayak and savory water, what about you?

Our main site that would manage a couple of vehicles, tents  and/or campers.  This site is the hub where our trail splits and takes hikers through our woods or down to the creek, could be traffic as other campers/hikers pass by.  Awesome fire pit!

Another great site close to the creek, may get visitors since the creek is a welcome spot for all of our guests.  (**This site does flood after several days of rain and will require 4x4 for access.)
