Make memories at this unique farm stay. A charming, rustic get away for the end of the trail.
You'll enjoy 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, kitchen, and a cozy wood stove or pellet stove for the extra cold days. Mini split a/c + heat in main area. . Friendly farm animals include goats, chickens, horses, & cats. We are happy to arrange a tour during your stay where you can feed treats and interact with the horses, goats, and maybe even chickens. Located about 800 feet from Mammoth Cave's Lincoln Trailhead, you're able to bring your own horses to keep at our barn.
Despite thorough cleanings, there is a possibility for bugs, because we currently use natural pest solutions in order for our farm to support pollinators. Also, being a farm, sightings of arachnids, insects, and pests may occur. No refunds or cancellation will be issued as such.
***This cabin shares a roof with the campground’s bathrooms. They have exterior only entrances, but there are shared walls just as you’d find at a hotel etc. Local favorites:
The obvious thing to do is visit Mammoth Cave National Park! Lots of hiking in park as close as 800 feet from the campground. Horses are welcome at our campground, we provide stalls and the MCNP trail across the road is horse friendly. There are several tours to choose from if you’re, you may want to choose a couple. We recommend getting tickets in advance as they do sell out. (Visitor center 20-25 minutes via Green River Ferry route, 40 minutes without ferry)
Trail rides are provided at Double J Stables. (5 minutes) Advance reservation recommended.
Nearby there is Hickory Cabins, it’s more fast food type, and only couple couple minutes away. Open for the season April -November, The Blue Holler Restaurant serves up German and American fare. Bee spring has KY Rock grill. Bouys at Wax Marina is a fun lake view experience
The Feedmill in Leitchfield (35 min) has good breakfast & lunch & there’s a Mexican restaurant, mi Camino Real, that’s good in that area too. There’s also a Peddler’s Mall in Leitchfield if that interests you.
In Bowling Green (50-55 min) there’s the corvette museum & lost river cave tour if you’re looking for more to do.
Cave city (across the ferry 25 min) has tourist friendly activities including various caves that have been open since the early 1900s. Kayaking tours available down Green River. There are attractions such as Dinosaur World, Kentucky Down Under, & Mammoth Cave Adventure. A favorite stop for me is Leo’s woodworking as you exit the park toward cave city.
I recently went to a cave tour in Horse Cave called hidden river cave (40 min) which was kinda neat. They have antique shops nearby in the little downtown.
10-15 minutes away is an Amish town called Cub Run. They have a couple shops, the Variety Shoppe & Detweilers, which has a small bakery and deli and everything from gardening to furniture. There is a separate hunting & fishing store.
