Upon arrival, there were several dishes we had to wash in order to be able to cook what we were making for dinner that evening. Other than that, and a few other cleanliness issues, we had a great time. The view was nice. The kids loved the hot tub and the Red River Gorge/Natural Bridge area is great for hiking.

From the Hot tub to Mountain View’ has everything you might want or need. Very clean. Only thing I could think of is having a pitcher for tea and recommendation for where to get fire wood. Would definitely recommend or come back.

You are in the woods so there will be some bugs. The beds and couch are comfortable. Note everything is left when you leave the house. GPS is spotty.

We loved our getaway weekend at this beautiful home. The home was clean and had everything one would need. The kitchen was beautiful and good size and was completely stocked. The home had nice views from inside the house and great views outside. It had a nice area for the fire pit and there was a hot tub right outside. We had a very nice relaxing trip at this home. We definitely will be back.
