Tranquil & peaceful ... Beautiful property. Cabins, restroom and showers were clean and well maintained. The Hosts were AMAZING!!! Felt like I was on a high priced tour guided vacation. Extremely nice, fun and enjoyable. Would highly recommend for a clean, safe family get a way in a beautiful serene setting.
Great this is our second time at Summer Shoals and it was better than ever!James and Lora are fantastic host! Love the new cabins they were wonderful and our girls loved playing in the creek.Cant wait to return!
It was nice to see you all again. I guess now you are like family. Glad everyone enjoyed themselves.
Summer Shoals has it all!
Charming Hosts, easy check in and access and beautiful views.
The Cabin was comfy and clean.
The area had all you need from picnic table to grill. Bathrooms are nice to have, but a little hike up a hill which is a bit difficult in the heat of summer, however you can drive up to them so no worries there.
We enjoyed the quiet surroundings and the lovely flow of the river. There are several hikes, but being a one night stay we didn't partake this time. We do plan on a revisit.
Thank you Jim and Lora!
Cabins Lock
Shower with cold water
purchase wood and ice on site
Waterfall 1 mile hike 1 way
Bring proper equipment for grille, it's over the firepit so a bit hot. Not a prob for us we had Ov Glove Mitts and tongs that worked just fine. Bring chairs, but can sit at picnic table.
Bedding is covered in plastic, so easy to clean, bring your own bedding.
Cabin can sleep 4 or 5 comfortably (a few adults and kids)

Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful!
Thank you for your through review! That's exactly what we were hoping for as it will be very helpful for campers that follow. Thank you for visiting and we hope the sounds of the Shoals will remain in your memory for some time.
Beautiful location, hosts were friendly and helpful. Great fresh eggs. Close to Cumberland Falls and Daniel Boone National Forest. Great for Dog Slaughter Falls. If you could add a hot water shower it would be perfect.
Thank you wasnt that shower refreshing? Your wish is our command the news bathhouse will be complete this summer.
This spot is a gem. It one of those post card get away spots that exceeded expectations. We will be back. Thank you Jim and Lora for hosting your property.
We stayed in one of Jim and Lora's minimalist cabins, and it was perfect. Right on the Cumberland River and secluded, with great swimming, hiking and fishing. Jim and Lora even secured our cabin and camping gear when a surprise storm blew up while we were canoeing. Terrific hosts and terrific experience!
Happy we could help. We are glad you enjoyed your visit.
This was our second trip Shoals Retreat. It was as remembered. Relaxing and tranquil are only a couple of words that help describe the camping location. A must go!!!! Thanks again!
Thank you Tom it was nice to meet your family. Have a great summer. Oh btw you left all your rain here. Please come get it, lol...you are welcome back anytime.
What a beautiful niche of paradise! Hosts are warm and welcoming, friendly and helpful. Great little hikes on their land. Short drive to Cumberland Falls and even more hiking. Coming back to a cozy cabin to rest and eat. Relaxing in the Cumberland River literally steps from the cabin. I sat for hours reading and relaxing in this beautiful place.
This was our second trip. We loved it so much we had to come back. Loved it even more the second time and must go back again. Words are not found in human language to describe the peace in your heart and mind. The surrounding beautiful. The sound of the river. The clean and up kept grounds and the warmth and hospitality of the hosts. You have to experience it to understand the awe, wonder and serenity at Summer Shoals Retreat. From begining to end... You wont want it to end.
