30 years ago this was a pay lake it has been shut down for years. I got it a few years ago for a family getaway. So there is some really nice fish in the lakes. We have a outside kitchen with a gas grill, gas griddle and sink.we also have a sink for your use. There is also a toilet with a flushing toilet.

Weekend Trip to Cedar Ridge Cabin
It was fun even in the winter. Ain't nothing like a wood stove. There was a little mouse around but its winter and they like to be warm too. Made a fire outside, it fell real nice.

I cat say enough about how awesome this place was and what an incredible value for the price! Chuck and Van were gracious and kind hosts and we enjoyed getting to know them while we were there too! The photos don’t do this place justice. The kitchen had everything we needed, the bathroooms were immaculate. Our kids loved fishing, playing with the dogs and exploring. Also Jeffrey’s cliff hike is a MUST!

1 night at Mollys Ridge Glamping and Camping
The stay was really nice! We enjoyed the fire in the evening and went in to the tent as the night went on. After it got cold enough, we used the gas heater and it was more than enough to keep us warm.
The potable water is limited, so if you need lots (cooking, cleaning) be sure to bring it in.
It was extremely private and lovely, but it looks like there may be a new cabin being built at the top of a very nearby hill which would make the place much less private. We prefer solo private spots, so we might need to check on this for future stays.

The A Frame glamping was excellent! The space was cozy and comfy and so close to the bathroom/shower spaces. Speaking of - the bath/shower spaces were very clean and well appointed. The property is sp close to the National Park that it was easy to make my 9 am tour time. Thank you for sharing!

We had such an awesome and unique experience. The farm animals were so special. Despite the 100+ degree heat wave during our visit, our glamping tent was cold and extremely comfortable to sleep in. The hosts were wonderful! Our family loved everything!

Weekend Trip to Noble Pine Campground
This is hands down one of my top Hip Camps Ive been to! Not far from Mammoth Cave at all, plus the surrounding countryside is gorgeous. We had a lovely, peaceful stay in the glamping tent which felt like a hotel after tent camping! Boots, the cat concierge, checked on us several times to make sure we were enjoying our stay, which we loved! Overall, this was an amazing stay and I wish we had planned to stay longer. We will definitely be back! Also being able to shower on a five day camping trip was a dream.

The Cedar Ridge Cabin was impeccably clean and had the coolest off-grid gadgets! I maintained a similar cabin for several years and know how much work goes into such a spot. The craftsmanship and attention to detail at this cabin was inspiring to say the least! My son and I enjoyed the adventure hike down to the river and watching the nighttime critters in the field. Thank you for opening up this lovely spot to guests!
