    We had such a relaxing stay in this cabin and were sad that we had only booked one night. We hope to go back at some point to stay again. One of my favorite things was the book about waterfalls in KY that guided us to venture out to Cumberland Falls, which was stunning.

    Susan’s cabins are not only some of the most well curated and furnished get-aways, she is also an incredibly kind host. You enter the place like a new peaceful realm and you leave feeling like you found another home. The surrounding land is quite scenic, our pup had a lot of fun running free and we enjoyed the serene privacy of the Riverside Blue Cabin. Susan was available at any given moment we reached out to her and she was most accommodating with our dog. She and the space invite you to totally unplug and tap into what relaxes you.

    We had such a comfortable stay in this adorable cabin! Conveniently located just off the highway, and easy to get to, this spot is perfect for a long weekend visit. With enough beds for a large family, full kitchen, and bath, it has everything you need for your stay. There was a litter of adorable puppies running around and if you visit soon enough you may even be able to take one home!
