Stayed Apr 12, 2026This cabin was so perfect! We really did not want to leave. We tried to extend our stay, but the beautiful cabin was already booked. I can’t blame them! It was the most beautifully decorated cozy place of our honeymoon trip.

Stayed Jun 8, 2026The Whipsaw was excellent. Great kitchen area, firepit, propane grill, fairly close to mammoth cave. Front porch had a great view and the entire place was spacious, but still very cozy. Wonderful place if you are wanting to be close to nature, but still be comfortable. 10 outa 10.

Stayed May 1, 2026Whipsaw was quiet and back in the woods, which is just what we wanted. We would have loved to enjoy the beautiful porches more but the cool temperatures did not allow. We appreciated the very comfortable beds and crisp sheets and slept so good after long days of caving and exploring the area. The drive to cave tours was longer than we expected, but not terrible and a beautiful drive back through the national park or along the parkway. The home was moderately equipped -- would have appreciated a Keurig for convenience since only one of us was a coffee drinker. While the house was very clean, a quick swifter through hanging light fixtures and along tall ceilings to capture cobwebs and dust would be even better. All in all, we loved this home and location and would highly recommend staying here.

Stayed Apr 18, 2026Beautiful cabin! Beds super comfortable. Kitchen has everything you need. Only thing I would change is put some heavier curtains in the bedrooms. The curtains are very thin and even with having window blinds as well, the outside lights were very bright and lit up the room. It made it difficult to get much sleep. We still had a wonderful time and would stay again.

Stayed Mar 22, 2026I always assume that a property will look smaller or less charming in person. That was definitely not the case here! It was so comfortable and relaxing that we decided to extend our stay, even though it meant losing the money we had already placed on a hotel in Louisville. The lovely porch was perfect for breakfast and bird-watching and there were a couple of friendly local cats that hung around the back. The kitchen was well appointed and we were able to whip together a simple meal as soon as we arrived. Less than 30 min from Mammoth Cave as long as you take the cute ferry that shuttles across the Green River from 6 am to 6 pm. Plenty of hiking, horseback riding and ziplines in the area. The Nolin Lake State park is closed until they fix all the damage from last year’s flood. You can still use the boat launch but that is all. Hopefully they get that fixed up soon, so there will be even more trails to explore!

Stayed Oct 17, 2025We absolutely loved this property! The hosts thought of everything we could possibly need for a comfortable stay. Really- we lacked nothing. My daughter decided she’d like to live there forever. There were plenty of books, coloring books, games, etc… to keep her busy, and she loved being able to feed the birds! The front porch is a huge asset, and offered plenty of seating options for enjoying the quiet and listening to the sounds of nature. If you want to do a lot of cooking, consider bringing groceries with you. We were able to find what we needed for two at a nearby Dollar General Market, but large grocery stores are pretty far away. In summer months, there may be nearby farm stands for produce. I HIGHLY recommend this property without reservation! Absolutely beautiful!

Stayed Sep 19, 2025If I could rate this property more stars, I would! Every detail was thoughtfully and tastefully executed. The setting was private and quiet. The outside of the house was well lit with automatic lights which was nice to come home to at night. Immaculately clean. Luxurious linens. The porch was such a great, comfortable space to relax. The location was central to everything we planned. We would definitely recommend this property!

Stayed Aug 24, 2025Nice property in beautiful area. Well kept, furnished and clean except for some cobwebs here and there up high. Loved the view and furnishings on the balcony. The listing says 5 min walk to SEE the lake, but be prepared that you can't actually get to the lake, you can just see it from behind someone else's property.We enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others.

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!!

Stayed Oct 19, 2024The proximity to the things we wanted to do made this a good choice. We enjoyed the layout of the place, esp. the porches to enjoy coffee and watch wildlife. Our bed was was comfortable as well, very important to us. Appreciated the washer/dryer! A note to navigation: Having read another of the reviews that expressed concern about Hilltop Road, we found Jaggers Rd to be a great option as it is paved.
