Cabins in Red River Gorge

·

Tucked in Eastern Kentucky's Daniel Boone National Forest, near Campton and Slade an hour outside Lexington, the Red River Gorge (RRG) is a popular getaway for families, couples, and large groups alike. Red River Gorge cabin rentals range from treehouses to multi-bedroom luxury cabins perfect for family reunions. Many area vacation rentals are pet-friendly and come with perks such as air-conditioning, wifi, pool tables, hot tubs, and fire pits. The area is full of things to see and do during a weekend getaway, from kayaking and exploring area hiking trails to challenging yourself to rock climbing or a zipline course. The sandstone arches of Natural Bridge State Park are just next door and the Muir Valley Nature Preserve, popular with rock climbers, is just a short drive away. Make sure to pay a visit to the nearby Nada Tunnel, an eerie 900-foot expanse created at the turn of the 20th century as a railway tunnel.

Welcome to Red River Gorge Glamping Resort, a boutique woodland retreat tucked into 13 acres of forest, meadows, and starlit sky in the Appalachian foothills. Designed for slow mornings, campfire nights, and meaningful connection, our property blends rustic charm with thoughtful comforts across canvas bell tents, cozy cabins, and RV-friendly sites. Wake up to birdsong drifting through the trees, sip coffee while mist rises from the hills, and wander the network of footpaths that connect each lodging to the communal fire pit, outdoor gathering meadow, and our modern bathhouse with hot showers and clean restrooms. A brand-new shared hot tub sits in the center of the meadow—perfect for warming up after a winter hike or unwinding under a canopy of stars. Every space is crafted to feel inviting and soulful: warm lighting, soft bedding, rugs underfoot, heaters and electric blankets in the tents, and special touches like complimentary s’mores kits for campfire nights.

Located just 25 minutes from Natural Bridge State Park and minutes from iconic Red River Gorge trails, climbing crags, and scenic overlooks, this is an ideal basecamp for adventure—whether you’re here to hike, climb, explore, meditate, write, or simply breathe.

New features, artistic touches, and community spaces are always unfolding as we slowly shape this land into a woodland sanctuary for travelers, dreamers, families, and nature lovers alike.
