Relaxing journey

We had a great time relaxing, cooking, and spelunking in Kentucky. The cabin was clean, with beautiful views, and comfortable with plenty of amenities. The neighborhood cave was closed but we had many adventures at Mammoth!

Home away from home!!

The pictures do not do this place enough justice! It's absolutely gorgeous! They have it stocked with everything that you would need other than your groceries! Its so peaceful. Just a short walk to the lake! Or short drive to many other things to do. You can grill out or have a campfire and everything is already there for you! Or if your like us and just need a relaxing weekend or week this is definitely your place! I will definitely be coming back! Also they stayed in contact and let us know they were there for any questions and concerns. Great people!!

Peaceful Haven

My husband and I loved staying at this sweet cabin. I loved waking up each morning and having coffee on that glorious porch. It was a fantastic place to come back to each day after exploring the Mammoth Cave National Park. I highly recommend this property if you're planning on visiting this beautiful area.

They thought of everything….

Our stay was wonderful! The owner seemed to have thought of everything to make for a perfect stay. We especially loved the porch. I wish we would’ve used the grill area which was nicely laid out for family to spend time together.

Cabin Oasis

We loved this property! It was gorgeous, with a well stocked kitchen. The cabin and furnishings were comfy. The decor was fantastic and we felt at home. We wnjoyed meals on the front porch and watching deer around the house. It was convenient to Mammoth Cave National Pork, Hidden River Cave in Horse Cave. The kitchen was well stocked for folks that like to cook. We would stay here again!

Spacious & Well-Equipped Home

This stay was part of a sisters road trip. This spacious home was as represented. We especially enjoyed the front porch/balcony & well-equipped kitchen. LR was large enough for the two of us to do online yoga classes together!

Quick stay at the lake

We stayed at Whipsaw while visiting Mammoth Cave (part of our trip to Nashville area). The cottage was clean, comfortable, peaceful (with the exception of the heavy thunderstorms that rolled thru our first night). Nice place to stay…just make sure you have some groceries, because it’s a few miles back to Brownsville
