The combination of modern design, pond views, private hot tub and firepit makes Sunrise Cabin suitable for romantic getaways and family vacations alike.

FISHING, PONDS AND 25 WOODED ACRES

Step outside and enjoy catch-and-release fishing in the nearby ponds, watch for deer and other wildlife, or take a peaceful walk through our Kentucky holler and woodlands.

Guests are welcome to explore winding trails, two seasonal creeks and three ponds across the 25-acre property. Fishing is catch and release, and guests should bring their own equipment.

Two other cabins share the property, but they are positioned far enough away that they are not visible from Sunrise Cabin. This gives the cabin its own private setting and outdoor experience.

Up to two dogs are welcome at Sunrise Cabin.

Friendly neighborhood dogs sometimes visit the property and may bark at unfamiliar dogs. These dogs are not our pets, and we cannot control their visits. Please supervise visiting pets outdoors.

Children also require close adult supervision around the ponds, seasonal creeks, loft and wooded areas.
