About this property

Farmhouse by the Lake with FAST Fiber Internet + Washer/Dryer!

Welcome to our Red River Farmhouse, right next to Wolf/Campton Lake, with easy access to Red River Gorge! The sound of goats baaa-ing will greet you as you pull into the driveway (Seasonal - March through Nov). They're a little spoiled, and love to be hand-fed! FAST fiber internet with GIG speeds! Stream away on all our TVs and enjoy Disney+, HBO Max, Showtime, YouTube TV, Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu, Peacock premium, and Paramount, and all your local TV stations with unlimited DVR. When you're not hiking, enjoy fishing or boating at the lake across the street from our farmhouse! Washer/Dryer included! Kayaks are available to use at no extra charge during your stay.

Never miss a sunrise or sunset from any side of our house on our wrap-around deck on 4 acres of land. Enjoys smores and a hot dog over our firepit, or just relax with a glass of wine or Corona in the rocking chairs on the front porch. The possibilities are endless! Did the trails get your clothes dirty? Don't worry, we have TWO sets of washers and dryers, one upstairs and one on the main level. The master is on the main with an en suite bath. There's an additional master upstairs with a queen bed and a full over full bunk bed as well as an en suite bath. The half bath is upstairs along with 2 other bedroom, each with one queen bed. All bedroom mattresses are memory foam, and they are comfy! The common area/TV room upstairs has a sleeper sofa that can accommodate more guests. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to cook, bake, blend, and make coffee to make yourself at home. We have 3 smart TVs: Upstairs common area, main level living room, and main level master bedroom. You can cast content from your phone to any of our TVs or you can enjoy the services that we subscribe to. YouTube TV is what we use for cable TV. It has all the local channels, live sports, and on-demand programming.

You're not obligated to feed the goats, but if you want to, you can cut up fresh apples and carrots for them. Feed them on the RIGHT side of our barn. DO NOT touch the fence on the left side or the far right side where the electric fence says "Danger, High Voltage."

Goats are seasonal. Due to extremely cold temperatures in the months of December, January, and February, the goats will not be on site.

We love animals, but please keep muddy paws off the beds. A separate $50 pet fee per stay will be charged during the week of check-in. Unauthorized pets will be charged $250 per stay.

We're just a couple minute drive from the Sav-A-Lot grocery store, Subway, gas stations and Mountain Parkway. We're also walking distance to the beautiful Campton Lake.

This is the wilderness, so don't be alarmed if you see some critters here and there, but if anything becomes a nuisance, or if there's an infestation, please alert me ASAP.

DO NOT flush anything other than our septic-safe toilet paper. Houses/cabins around Red River Gorge are all on septic. These systems cannot drain like city sewer and will easily clog if paper towels, tampons, fruit peels, etc. get in there. Once clogged, any use of water, including from the toilets, sinks, and showers, will flood the home and result in a very unpleasant vacation. Whether you stay with us or at another house/cabin, please keep this in mind.

Base price of home is set at a flat fee for 6 guests. We can allow up to 12 guests. Each guest beyond the base 6 people will be charged $20/person/night. These fees will be automatically calculated by VRBO during the checkout process.

Hilltop Hacienda

Great location for the family. The lower floor was perfect for our elderly parents since everything they needed was on one floor. The walk-in shower was a true bonus. The family really enjoyed the place and all the things to do in the area. Feeding the goats was really cool. Would recommend the place to anyone for a relaxing getaway.

Family Kentucky vacation

Our family ages 2 to 60 enjoyed the Red River Farmhouse for 5 nights. It was big enough for all of us. The yard was perfect for games and kids loved the goats. Most activities were within 20 minutes. The hostess was quick to answer our questions.

Beautiful Property

Great house! Lots of space for kiddos, well stocked with basics, beds comfortable, and the goats are just fun! Only caveat is that sound seems to travel throughout the house—bring white noise if you have people sleeping at odd times!

Cozy, cute, and clean

My kids were obsessed with the goats. They were sweet and gentle. The place is clean and cozy. Our family was able to relax. Great kitchen to cook with everything you need. There’s a lake 1 minute away where we kayaked and fished. You can cook s’mores by the fire. The hiking was 15 minutes away and amazing views. The host responded to all my questions so fast! When we left my family was asking when we could come back.

Summertime in RRG

This home is so peaceful and quiet! We spent so much time on the front porch rocking away while my grandchildren played in the lovely front yard and feeding the goats💕. I have never stayed in a rented home that was as well stocked in the kitchen as this one. The beds were comfy and the master shower felt wonderful. We had fires every evening and roasted smores. Lovely!

Easter with Family

The Red River Farmhouse was a perfect getaway/meeting place for our family. The grandkids loved the sheep and the upper deck. The cool temps and rain limited outside time so they played on the upper deck all day long. The location is close to The Gorge Underground and the family had a great experience. In fact, the family all said they would come here again!

Great Communication

Overall our group had a great stay at the farmhouse. The house was clean and all needed supplies were provided as the listing said. There were plenty of games inside as well as lots of outdoor space around the property. Traveling to and from Red River Gorge and surrounding trials was easy as the parkway was easily accessible from the house.

Family Fun Vacation

Stayed here with our kids and grandchildren and had a good time. The grandchildren were a little disappointed at first when they found out the sheep would not be there, but they had fun with all the activities. We went hiking, fishing, kayaking and one day drove over to Cave Run to enjoy the lake on a pontoon boat. The kids enjoyed making their hotdogs and smores over the firepit. We stayed up late playing games, talking and laughing. It was a fun family vacation!

Fun at the Farm !

We very much enjoyed our stay at the farmhouse! There was plenty of space for the “full time” 5 adults and 2 kids, plus an extra 2 adults and 3 kids at meals and playtime. The kitchen is spacious and well stocked; we used it to prepare all of our family meals. The fire pit was large enough to accommodate our whole family with space to spare and the kids enjoyed making some tasty s’mores over the campfire. The location is convenient to any number of hiking spots and other attractions. The friendly goats, always looking for a handout, were a ‘hit’ with both kids and adults.

Cute place

Very Cute place - we had plenty of room for 10 adults. It was very clean - a couple of things: * outdoor furniture could be updated - the home has great outdoor space that could be used more if a little more comfortable. to be fair - it rained the whole time we were there so we were not able to use the fire pit - so the deck would have been a great option for us to use. * beds were very firm! not sure if good or bad - no tvs in the room - this would be a nice option. * we had no idea that the dishwasher was clean when we arrived - it was full - we basically hand washed our cups, ( we did not really cook in the house) therefore we did not open the dishwasher until we were leaving - so we had no idea until the last day - so we thought that the kitchen was not equiped. Overall, cute, comfortable, clean home - the goats were fun to feed!

conveniently located quaint farmhouse

We had a great time climbing at the Red and using this house as our home base. The host is super responsive and easy to communicate with and we found the location extremely convenient. One word of caution for light sleepers in the master bedroom - the floorboards above are very creaky. Creaks from the footsteps of family in the room above woke me up every time and it was my bad luck that they were frequent middle of the night bathroom users and extreme early risers! The furnace is also housed in a closet in the bedroom and it’s pretty loud when it’s fired up. Not a big issue at night since we kept the temp down.

Red River Farmhouse

This was our first family vacation. Overall we enjoyed staying here. There were a couple issues. First two drawer handles in the kitchen and diningroom fell apart into pieces when we tried to open them. Second, the upstairs washer and dryer didn’t work. Third, the butcher block island had a sticky film to it. And fourth the lake was not across from the road. You needed to drive the kayaks down the road and up a steep hill so we didn’t use them. However, the bedrooms were nice and comfortable and there was lots of outdoor sitting all around the balcony and out by the fire. Our young grandchildren loved feeding the goats at least more than once a day. I would give this rental an 8 out of 10. Thanks to the owner for answering all my questions along the way.

Fabulous Family Christmas!

We searched for a property that 3 families (Florida, Michigan, and New York) could reasonably drive to for Christmas. And we found the perfect place! House was big enough for us to be comfortable together and have separate spaces too. We loved feeding the sheep, finding short hikes for exploring, and the general beauty of the area even in winter. With Covid rampant, we loved being remote and feeling safe. We planned for at-home meals and were pleasantly surprised with the kitchen amenities. Be aware there are not many restaurants or grocery stores nearby so plan accordingly. Tracy was an excellent communicator and even allowed us to put up a small Christmas tree for the kids. A most memorable holiday!

Home away from home

We were looking to stay near Red River Gorge to spend a few days away for my husband’s 45th birthday. The property is very well kept, clean, and very thoughtfully decorated. The dual wrap around deck provides plenty of outdoor shelter and even has one side enclosed with outdoor furniture to enjoy the outside while avoiding the bugs at night or eating dinner. If you are traveling with children or a herd of elephants, you may consider choosing an upstairs bedroom. Otherwise you will hear everything going on above you from the downstairs bedroom. Other than the internal acoustics, we were very pleased with Tracy and her husband who were both extremely helpful and accommodating. Would stay with them again, very well recommended.

Great property for a family with young kids, but needs some updates

The property itself has plenty of open space outside and the 2 covered decks were wonderful when it rained! Kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook every night! I was disappointed with the cleanliness of the home though. Bedrooms and bathrooms were spotless, but the ceiling fans were covered in dust and the outdoor screened in porch was untouched and in disarray which was disappointing when it rained. Also, it seems that the property is mid remodel? There were random cabinets laying around on the upstairs deck and no seating out there either. The master bedroom and on-suite was really nice, very spacious shower and incredibly comfy bed. The upstairs washing machine didn’t always work and would shut off randomly mid cycle. We ended up just not using it and only using the one downstairs. Overall, not a bad stay for the location, but could use some TLC to make for a better stay.

Family trip

When we pulled up to the property we were all pretty upset. The lawn had not been mowed and there was tons of weeds growing up in the flower beds which looked like have been growing for months and months. The outside deck would needed a lot of treatment. However when we entered the home it was very well decorated and had plenty of room for all of us. The owner was very helpful with an issue we had with wasp nest and a family member getting stung a few times. She had someone come out to spray and take down about 12 nests that were up in the deck. There was plenty of room outside to Rome and I was very excited about the goats. However all of them were limping pretty bad and would not come towards us. The last night we did notice mold down in the downstairs bedroom and a lot of cobwebs up in the corners of the room. It just needs to be taken more care of since you're renting a home. However I must say just being with family was enough. Again the owner was very helpful I just don't know if they realized that the property is not being kept up like it should to rent it out.

About the host

Hosted by Tracy Zhang

Host profile image
Hi, my name is Tracy Zhang. I have a small family of 3, and we are avid outdoor climbers. Actually, I'm an avid outdoor belayer. My son is the climber. We live in Chattanooga, but we visit the Red River Gorge all the time. We first rented cabins or stayed in motels, but 2 essentials were always missing from every place we stayed at: 1. Reliable WiFi and 2. Washer and Dryer (for our extended trips). So we went on the hunt for a house that could keep us connected and clean when we vacationed, and we found the perfect place. The internet speed here is faster than we have at home! If you've never experienced gigabit fiber before, you're in for a real treat!

Why they chose this property

Just 1 word: Sheep! Okay, maybe 2: Lambs too!!! Where else can you stay in the gorge and feed these beautiful creatures in your backyard pasture? The lambs are seasonal and aren't guaranteed to be in the pasture during your stay

What makes this property unique

Our house is one of the very few in the Gorge area that has reliable WiFi. If you've ever stayed in the Gorge, you know what I'm talking about. If you haven't before, ask the other hosts what their internet speeds are on the speed test. Cell phone reception is pretty bad in the Gorge, so good WiFi is a must. And washer/dryer is often overlooked as an essential amenity for longer stays. Most places around here don't have those.
