Family-friendly vacation rentals in Estill County

Nice rental, perfect for 4 people. Hot tub was excellent after a day of climbing.

We loved this cabin!! It was exactly what we were looking for in a long weekend getaway, and we would definitely return to this cabin!!

We loved our stay! House was clean and matched the description. Enjoyed the changing leaves while sitting on the back porch and we were close to hiking. Would go back!

This is my second time staying at one of Amy’s cabins. They are beautifully crafted and super cozy. We loved sitting in the new hot tub and listening to the creek. I couldn’t get the hot water to come on the first night but I stopped by the main house and the maintenance man greeted me and said he would fix it up. It was fixed within the next hour or two before we got back from our hike. I didn’t catch his name but he was very friendly. A couple small additions that would be helpful: An extra towel per person so you can have one for bathing and one for the hot tub. A bedside lamp. Overall, I am very satisfied with my stay and plan to stay at the Red River Gorgeous cabins again in the future!

Beautiful cabin that fit our needs and had all the amenities we were looking for. It was surrounded by trees and felt fairly secluded. Easy to get to and so close to everything we wanted to do. The bedrooms were laid out slightly differently than in the pictures but there were still the same amount of sleeping spots so it wasn’t a problem. Overall it was a great stay!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Perfect Getaway at The Aldo! My stay at The Aldo in Stanton, Kentucky, was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the comfort and attention to detail in this beautiful contemporary cabin. It offers the perfect blend of modern amenities and cozy charm, making it an ideal place to unwind. One of the highlights of our stay was the hike to Sunset Point—an incredible added bonus (We loved the ropes!)! The trail was beautiful, and the views at the top were absolutely breathtaking. After a day of exploring, relaxing in the hot tub under the stars was pure bliss. The time spent by the fire, enjoying the peaceful surroundings, was the perfect way to end each evening. The location is fantastic—peaceful and secluded, yet close to Red River Gorge and other outdoor adventures. The hosts were incredibly responsive and ensured everything was perfect for our stay. We highly recommend The Aldo to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable getawa

Overall, this cabin was a great getaway! Very private and relaxing. The built in hiking trails on site were such a great perk! Hot tub was well maintained and the views were incredible. Our only complaint was it wasn’t as clean as we’d hoped. The sheets on both beds were either not entirely clean (found hair on one bed) or just needed to be replaced (stains, pilling etc.) Many of dishes weren’t entirely clean when we arrived either.

We had a large group stay here for one of the members Bachelor Party. Sadly for us it rained pretty much the entire weekend, but nonetheless the house worked out perfectly. Beautiful woodwork, lots of natural light, and plenty of beds/space for all eight of us. We spent lots of time in the large kitchen and family room areas for food, games, and socializing. The covered porch with the hanging swings was perfect for guitar sessions in the rain as we watched the storms roll through our second night. The bathroom situation was perfectly fine for us as we showered in shifts; never had any issues running out of hot water. None of us minded the spotty cell service either, and rather enjoyed gathering around the small TV and figuring out which DVD to watch. A weekend to hang out and unplug was exactly what we were after. Plenty of parking for our three cars and didn't mind getting our steps in to get inside. Would definitely come back again in the future!

Our family had a great stay! We enjoyed coming back to the cabin after hiking and sitting on the porch by the stream. We would happily be back!

I had a great experience here! The cabin was beautiful and cozy inside. There were lots of windows with screens that I could keep open at night or during the day without the worry of critters getting in. On your way to the location, you also drive through the incredible Nada Tunnel. The Gorge was an amazing experience and the cabin was a great place to return to for some rest and relaxation. Great stay and would definitely return.

We had a fantastic time at Laura's cabin! Our son had so much fun exploring the farm, and watching the cows and goats. We also enjoyed drinking our coffee while watching the birds at the bird feeder each morning. The cabin itself was beautiful with many touches referencing the history of the cabin. We really enjoyed being able to use the farm store by the cabin as well. It was very centrally located, allowing us to easily do day-trips to Red River Gorge, Lexington, and Winchester. Overall, we had a great time and would highly recommend this stay!

We had a fantastic stay at this secluded cabin! It was cozy and comfortable, especially with the fireplace, and provided the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle. The location was great—just a 30-minute drive to everything the Gorge has to offer! We loved fishing at the pond during the day and ending each night by the fire. The cabin was well-stocked with everything we needed, making our stay even more enjoyable. We’d definitely stay here again!

We wanted to backcountry camp, but the weather was looking bad. This was the next best thing, the good parts of a tent (being close to a fire pit, feeling the open air, surrounded by trees) but with a roof over your head. We really enjoyed our time, and the location is also great. It is right at Martin's Fork trailhead which takes you up to the ridge trails.

Quaint little cabin that was perfect for our KAT riding.

Such a cute place to stay with a great kitchen! I would definitely recommend this space for your next vacation.

There are three things I am looking for when I choose a place to stay on vacation and this place checked every box! 1. LOCATION! This place is in a perfect location. It is close to a highway, but I never heard any traffic noise. What I absolutely loved about the location is that we were not more than 20-30 minutes from any hikes wanted to do or restaurants we wanted to visit, but it still feels quiet and set apart. Also loved the coffee/ice cream shop 1 minute down the road. Visited it every day! 2. Easy parking - Several years back I rented a place that was nearly impossible to get to so this was important to me. There are no steep hills or narrow roads in or out of the apartment. Parking is right by the front door. Super easy in and super easy out. Perfect. 3. As described - I have also been burned in the past by finding a place much different than pictured. Not here. This was exactly as expected if not better. I would 100% rent again. Hoping to return someday with my sister!

This cabin was a great getaway! I loved the open but cozy feel of the space. We only had two people staying, so there was plenty of space for sitting by the fire, around the table etc. Might be a bit cramped for more than 4 though. It wasn't clear from the pix, but one BR and one BA are upstairs, which is really nice to give people their own space. The roads are a bit of a challenge, so do heed that warning about 4WD if there is any sort of inclement weather predicted! Even the "paved" road is extremely steep and gravelly, and we had to take two runs to get up the driveway! On the other hand, the location is great if you want to just explore the Gorge. So many great hikes are just a few minutes away, and every drive is quite scenic. Really loved the experience here and would highly recommend.

Amy was a great host and very accommodating. Her cottage is cozy and a great place to stay away from home. The home was immaculate. She has a great housekeeper. The beds are very comfortable and there is an ample supply of extra linens, pillows, blankets and towels. The off street parking is convenient. Had a great stay!

Extremely clean and welcoming, great central location to major hiking/kayaking locations. Few things I would bring attention to. Lack of cleaning supplies, made a spill and no kind of cleaner to use, maybe add an extra blanket. Only blanket was the bed comforter (note I was there in dec/jan) a throw blanket would have been nice. Would prefer a window covering for the doors, especially the back door. All those things are extremely minor and the place was otherwise absolutely amazing. Would still book there again if in the area. Many positives about this place!

This is our third time staying in one of these two cabins. They are so cozy and just what we needed. The setting is beautiful and it is so calming to step out on the back porch and listen to the creek waters flowing. Just a lovely place!

Omgggg the inside was *absolutely beautiful* .. the view was amazing! We got in later than expected and the owners had a charcuterie board w/chocolate covered strawberries and drinks waiting for us and that definitely hit the spot after our long drive. SoOoOo thankful for the hospitality… Now I could barely get to sleep because I ended up getting numerous times to walk around the inside of the house and gaze in amazement of how beautiful the inside was. Just sitting on the couch and looking around brought us the escape and cozy peace that we needed from our every day busy life. It’s very obvious that the home has shared many loving and special moments & that the owners would share their special place with us. The breakfast was home made with love and my husband keeps raving about it.. I’m not gonna lie, lol I’m a little jealous and know that I need to step up my breakfast making game! Thank you for making our vacation extra special with the sweet extras that you did for us.

I loved staying at their place. Next time I know to go shopping BEFORE getting there. It’s literally so out there it’s amazing. My kids Had such a blast on the swings , the trampoline and all the other amenities. It was so relaxing for them to get a break from tech and just enjoy the outdoors. There was a lot of dog hair which stired up some of our kiddos breathing issues but other than that. It was AMAZING STAY. We can’t wait to come back❤️🥰

One large house and two apartments was perfect for our four families. Massive yard and small walking paths made this a great place to use as a home base

Friendly owners. Helpful with all our questions and requests. Fun lodging for the kids! And relaxing for the parents!
