Newly renovated 2 bedroom cabin near Cave Run Lake & Red River Gorge

The Bear’s Den is located in the beautiful Daniel Boone National Forest only minutes away from Cave Run Lake and only a short drive to the Red River Gorge. The cabin is located on a private, wooded lot with a partial fenced in yard with room for the kids or pets to play. The property has a large loop driveway with lots of room for parking and easy turn around for guests pulling boat trailers, jet skis, etc. While the cabin gives a secluded feel with all the beautiful trees and wooded areas, you’re conveniently located just minutes from a Dollar General, 12 miles to the small town of Frenchburg, and 17 miles to the larger town of Morehead.

The master bedroom has one queen bed with linens/pillows. There is also a large dresser, two nightstands, and a wall shelf for storing clothing/personal items during your visit. The secondary bedroom also has a queen bed with linens/pillows and a large dresser and nightstand for storage of personal belonging and clothing for guests.

The Bear’s Den has one full bath with tub/shower, toilet, and a large sink vanity. Several towels, wash cloths, and hand towels are stocked for your stay however, if you need more there’s a washer/dryer located in the laundry closet just off the kitchen.
Here you can also find extra trash bags and cleaning supplies that you may need during your stay.

The kitchen has modern appliances - oven with range, refrigerator/freezer, microwave - and smaller appliances as well, including a toaster, blender, George Foreman Grill, crock pot, and hand mixer. On the kitchen counter there is also a small “coffee bar” equipped with a Keurig and stocked with complimentary coffee pods, creamer, and sweetener. There is a large supply of dishes - plates, bowls, cups - and silverware stocked as well. You’ll also find basic cooking needs such as oil, non-stick spray, and salt and pepper. The dining table is located just outside the kitchen with a beautiful dining table for four, extra bar stool seating for additional guests is located in the kitchen.

The common area has a leather sofa with bed (linens/pillows provided) and a loveseat. There is a 55 inch smart tv so you can enjoy all your favorite streaming apps. There is also a beautiful electric fireplace that you can use with or without the heating option.

Outside on the front porch area you’ll find a relaxing porch swing with lots of seating for guests as well. The side porch has additional seating and a grilling area with a propane grill and utensils. There are citronella candles and tiki torches all around the porches as well to keep unwanted pests away. In the fenced in yard area you’ll find one of two fire pit areas with a table with chairs and an umbrella for evenings spent relaxing making s’mores or roasting hot dogs or just enjoying the sounds of the fire. In the back side of the cabin there is another fire pit area with a seating area as well.

The Bear’s Den is set up perfectly for enjoying time “in” with your family with lots of outdoor space to enjoy quiet time just relaxing on the porch swing or hanging out by the fire pits. If you visit the area to enjoy Cave Run Lake for fishing, swimming, or skiing you are just moments away. The Red River Gorge also has several wonderful restaurants, hiking, mini golf, a reptile zoo, underground kayaking, and zip lining. It also makes for just a gorgeous drive, with all the beautiful trees, mountains, cliffs, and the famous Nada Tunnel.

We enjoyed our stay. Had everything we needed and more. Check-in was smooth once we connect back to cellular and picked up the instructions. Wifi access was simple as was the tv streaming. One of the best cabins we've ever stayed in.

Great Stay - Accurate Listing

My buddy and I stayed 4 nights to do some fishing at Cave Run Lake. The cabin was close to many boat launches. The owner was super friendly with great communication. The cabin listing was very accurate with no surprises. I would highly recommend this cabin to friends.
