Big Laurel is a working cattle farm on land that has been in our family for 4 generations. The farm consists of 370 acres of bottomland pasture along the creek and quiet woodlands where you can explore jagged rock cliffs and beautiful vistas. The woodlands are undergoing transformation as we continue an ongoing forest rehabilitation project to return our land to its natural
state as a deciduous hardwood forest. Spotted on the farm is an amazing abundance of wildlife including wild turkeys, white tailed deer, pileated woodpeckers, bobcats, coyotes, foxes, bear, and red tailed hawks.

Eco Transforming A-Frame Cabin Near Cave Run Lake & Red River Gorge
Experience a unique off-grid micro A-frame camping cabin designed for nature lovers, hikers, and eco-conscious travelers. Located just minutes from Cave Run Lake and a scenic drive from Red River Gorge, Trace Space KY offers a peaceful basecamp to explore eastern Kentucky while treading lightly on the land.
The property is proudly certified by the National Wildlife Federation as a Wildlife Habitat and recognized as a Certified Garden and Monarch Waystation through Monarch Watch. Native plant gardens, pollinator habitats, and wildlife-friendly landscaping support butterflies, birds, and local ecosystems. Guests can enjoy a stay that prioritizes sustainability and respect for nature. Intentionally building dead hedges, leaving hollow stems, stumps, and wood piles creates vital habitat for native bees, pollinators, and wildlife. It's not a manicured yard, it's designed to support diversity, and, too, we are designing foodscapes. Always a work in progress. When available and in season, guests can pick their own fruit and/or herbs.
This 80 sq. ft. A-frame embraces a minimal footprint and off-grid mindset, encouraging guests to unplug, slow down, and reconnect with the outdoors.
Adventure is close by:
• 3 miles to Long Bow Boat Dock on Cave Run Lake
• 10 minutes to the Sheltowee Trace National Recreation Trail
• 18 miles to Red River Gorge and Daniel Boone National Forest
Within a 20-minute drive, short hikes lead to natural arches, scenic overlooks, a cave, a state fish hatchery, and a beautiful 60-foot waterfall in a small canyon.
Whether you’re kayaking, hiking, birdwatching, or simply relaxing among native gardens and wildlife habitat, Trace Space KY invites you to slow down and Embrace Nature’s Pace. 🌿🦋🌲

We put a horse farm on the land in 2000. The horses here are my family and I want to expand and offer more opportunities on the land. That's when I came across Hipcamp!

West Virginia’s Coolest, Newest, Vacation Cabin Rental and Hip Camping Resort!
The idea for creating a cabin rental/camping vacation getaway in the Allegheny Mountain Range came to life over several meetings at a Bob Evans restaurant in Columbus, Ohio, between co-owners Paul Liimatta and Joe Boffo. Joe had been accumulating land in the Genoa, West Virginia, area for several years and had dreamed of building cabins, tree houses and uniquely designed vacation rentals and campsites on a beautiful area called Hampton Ridge. Come and judge for yourself ;)

We had an incredible time staying on this property on the Peachtree lot. Liz is an amazing host! She couldn't have been more accommodating and kind.
She has the cleanest and homeiest feeling bath houses we've ever used at a campsite. There is even a little community hangout area with vending machines, a microwave, coffee, ice bags, a foosball table, and some other little conveniences.
As for getting to the ranch, it was straightforward. Google brought us right to her road and following her directions took us right to our lot with no issues. They have nice signs guiding you all along the way and everything's easy to make out.
The drive itself is absolutely gorgeous out to her place and the ranch itself is peaceful and full of unexpected surprises. Liz told us about lots of places and things we could explore on the ranch and she also mentioned Hell's hole.
If you are up to the challenge, take the hike down hell's hole and see if you can make it down to the river. It's unbelievable what some people have right in their backyard, and the fact that Liz shares it with us is such an awesome gift.
I brought my 8-month-old puppy along and he had the time of his life chasing and sniffing everything he could out on her property. We will definitely be back sometime to check out more of the Red River gorge area and more of the possum ridge ranch itself. Plus it's just beautiful driving through that area. Thanks Liz!!

This was a beautiful little farm to camp for the night. It would also be perfect for someone to make it their base camp to get away from everything then go explore during the day.
We spoke with the sweet couple who own the farm when we arrived. They are amazing 💗.
We camped next to the barns which housed horses. They were quiet and friendly.
It’s a perfect spot if you want privacy away from a campground. It’s considered a single sight so you have all the privacy.
Keep in mind, you are on someone’s farm and pretty much in their back yard, and will hear roosters crowing in the morning. However, it is still a private space for you/your group. We still had a fire, stayed up late, and played music 😊

Tent
Loved tent camping at Oak Ridge! Entire property was beautiful and well maintained, with great hosts. Hosts came to the plot to greet us and gave very helpful information about trails and how to get around! Bathrooms were super clean and stocked and trails were great! Definitely would come back.
