Cabin vacation rentals in Barren County

We loved this place, we only wish we could have stayed longer. It far exceeded our expectations and was absolutely what we needed. Peaceful, clean, comfortable, well stocked, with plenty of places nearby to go and adventure! We appreciated Greg and Judy’s attentiveness and our boys loved the little arrival gift they left for us. Thanks Greg and Judy! We plan on coming back, hopefully before too long!

Our family loved our stay at the tiny cabin for our trip to Mammoth Cave NP. We would adventure in the mornings and then back to the cabin for late afternoons on the front porch and hot tub. The cabin was secluded and was so comfortable and cozy!!!

This was a great place for a big group. If you plan to make your own food, the kitchen has all the tools, dishes, pan, etc. - everything you need. The saloon was fun and the beds comfortable. Free firewood and a nice fire ring. Be aware that while it was close to the lake it was about a 40 minute drive to Diamond Cave and about 1 hour to Mammoth Cave visitors center. Scenic drive. Also, no restaurants, Walmart or large grocery store nearby that we could find. Some groceries at I65, about 1/2 hour away. We brought our own food and loved to quiet ambiance. I would definitely come back again.

The cabin is spacious and well decorated, so it feels like home from the very first step, and was an excellent place to unwind and reconnect.

We've stayed at a lot of cabins for fall and spring breaks with our kids & this is one of our absolute favorites! Everything was clean & comfortable, the hot tub is fantastic, and the layout of the house worked well for our family (kids in the basement, mom + dad in the upstairs master). There's an incredible amount of deck space (three levels!), and having coffee outside each morning was a highlight for me. The 18-hole disc golf course is a unique feature! My 7-year-old is just getting into disc golf, and we liked that we could just take him out to play a couple of holes at a time after spending the day doing other activities. A couple of things to know: (1) Grocery stores are few & far between in the area, so plan to bring most of what you need with you or to eat at local restaurants while you're out and about, (2) If you're visiting Mammoth Cave, look up information about the Green River Ferry -- not only is it a fun experience but it will save you a ton of driving time.

This was our first trip as a family with our infant granddaughter and it was wonderful! Peaceful, serene with lovely views in a country setting. Rocking chairs on the porch to rock the little one asleep. Stunning shrub rose bushes. A hot tub where the kids could take a moment to catch up while we watched the little one. Visits included Mammoth Cave and Jim Beam distillery. With seven of us, the home never felt cramped. The mattresses were all very comfortable and we were able to cook meals inside and grill outside. My daughter-in-law loved the back porch swing! Brian was excellent with communication and he has the honor of being the first host of our tradition of a yearly family trip to different destinations. Start your own tradition at Smith's Grove, you won't be disappointed. P.S. Buccee's is right up the road!

Jamie’s place was exactly what we needed for our visit to Bowling Green. We were traveling with family, and the home was spacious enough for everyone in our group! The kitchen was well-stocked, which was important to us. Jamie was so helpful and responsive to messages and questions.

Great stay in Cub run with Hari! this cabin is seriously one of the most beautiful we've ever stayed in. worked for our little group. while we wish there was better lake access, you can't deny how beautiful the surrounding area is and once everything gets cleaned up from the floods I'm sure the closest lake access points will be back in action. really enjoyed easy connection to Mammoth cave, on both sides of the park, and several of the local restaurants.

Another great stay at Bette’s place! Great accommodations….super convenient to Dale Hollow Marina’s and the lake. Thanks Bette!!

We only stayed one night but really enjoyed the cabin and sitting out on the back deck watching the fireflies and listening to nature. It was about 20 minutes away from Mammoth Cave. The beds were comfortable and the cabin smelled new. Much nicer than a hotel stay!

This place was amazing. We had such a wonderful time with our two dogs. The cabin was easy to find and check in was easy as well. It was very clean and we had such an awesome stay. Will definitely be coming back!

The cabin at Cub Run was a perfect get away for our family! It is a beautiful, clean cabin with everything we needed and more! Kevin was great with communication and we had all of our check in and check out information in a timely manner. It was about a 45 minute drive to the Mammoth Cave visitor center and we loved sitting around the campfire in the evening. There are neighbors nearby but it was very peaceful and quiet. If we head back to the area we would definitely stay there again!

Cabin was very nice and secluded even though it was just a couple miles from town. Everything was convenient to get to. The cabin had everything we needed to cook. Loved being able to sit on the back deck with our morning coffee and also played games in the evening with the kids. Would highly recommend this place if you’re in the area looking for a quiet place to stay in the woods.

This cabin is in a quiet and peaceful setting. There is plenty of space for walking and exercising the dog. The pavilion down the hill looks like it’s for the 3-4 homes on the street and has a television, grills, chairs, and a fridge. The porch overlooking the river is nice and always cool. There was a cute bird who had built a nest there. The kitchen is well-stocked with plates, bowls, and pots and pans. The host was always very responsive and friendly. We really enjoyed our visit here.

The only problem we had was being willing to leave! This was by far the most amazing and perfect place we’ve ever stayed. All our needs were anticipated and met. House and location was perfect!

This is a cottage that backs up to a ridge full of trees and on a pristine creek that beckons you to get your feet wet. Richard, the host, matches the lovely energy of this space and is responsive to questions. The cottage is on the same property with the host but it feels completely private. The bed is so comfortable and the huge walk-in shower is big enough for two. I only wish he had more rental spaces on the property so that I could share this space with some of my favorite people! Already planning a trip back!

Lost Cove was amazing. Our family of 9 had plenty of space. The home is clean - inside, porches, and yard. The kitchen is super well stocked. The home has so many toys for different ages, along with games for all ages. We had an amazing stay. Oh and the s’mores ingredients was the final perfect touch. I would highly recommend! We enjoyed the state park as well as Mammoth Cave.

We enjoyed staying at this historic home. The host was quick to respond and even kept us updated on severe weather that was headed to the area. We would definitely love to stay there again.

The Fox Den was so lovely and we can not wait to stay again! So so clean and comfortable stocked with everything we needed or a week’s stay. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful with lots of wildlife. This is a must-stay property!

This was a beautiful and private cabin. It's very close to Mammoth Cave National Park!

This is a beautiful, clean, and well appointed cabin. Lora was so kind to check in and make sure we had all we needed after our arrival, but the place was already perfect and we felt right at home. We stayed during the summer which was great for easy access to Barren River Lake, but this would also be an amazing winter rental with the cozy look of the cabin and the two fireplaces. Thank you Lora for hosting us!

We had a wonderful stay at Peggy’s cabin! From the moment we arrived, Peggy made us feel right at home with her warm welcome , she even brought us farm fresh eggs and homemade bread, which was such a lovely touch. The cabin itself was clean, cozy, and perfect for a relaxing getaway. The camp-style community added to the charm and made the experience feel unique and peaceful. Peggy and her husband were incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay, always available if we needed anything. We couldn’t have asked for better hosts ,highly recommend staying here!

We really enjoyed our stay! We loved the cabin, perfect size for the 2 of us. It was so clean and neat and so peaceful! Great location, close to all the caves and other attractions and also other nearby towns.

This is a very cute place! There was games and corn hole available. Very nice place. Hosts were amazing and made sure our experience was personal.
