About this property

Whippoorwill's Nest - Glamping Tent with AC

Summary:
Retreat to the forest in what's sure to be one of the most unique, refreshing vacations you've been on! Nestled in Red River Gorge Kentucky, this tent has been designed specifically to make camping feel comfy, easy, and relaxing! Our glamping tents are thick enough to ensure that you stay nice and cozy, but allow light to diffuse throughout the whole tent. Now with air conditioning!

Our goal is to make outdoor retreats accessible to as many folks as possible - we'd love to host you.

The Space:
Surrounded by over 50 acres of national forest, including countless onsite activities and local attractions, you’ll be able to enjoy all of the adventure you want during the day and return to comfortable, cozy lodging at night.

🏕 Important:
- Towels are NOT provided at this time
- NO private fire pit

Tent #1 Ease-of-access Notes:
- This tent pairs well with The Blue Heron's Nest, which is just up the hill!
- The Whippoorwill is a medium-short walk, or a short drive, away from the bathhouse. You will have to go uphill on the way there and back
- We estimate the walk to take around 1 and a half to 2 minutes

This space includes:
- 1 King Bed
- 1 Sleeper Sofa (must supply your own pillows and blankets)
- Privacy Flaps
- Private sitting area
- Cots Available (must supply your own pillows and blankets)
- Large 65qt Cooler (must bring your own ice)

Additional amenities include:
- Private Front Porch
- Canopy Views
- On-site Bathhouse (with toilet, sink, and hot shower)
- Outdoor Nets to climb/play on
- Electricity!
- Shared fire pit
- Outdoor Water Spigot (for drinking water)
- Air conditioning

Camping in Red River Gorge has never been so easy, luxurious, OR cozy! If you're hoping for a unique, incredibly cool stay, visit and see all that our 50-acre woods have to offer!

You might notice some construction near Tent #7 at the bottom of the hill! We're building a retreat clubhouse called The Rookery; we apologize for any visual or audible disruptions, but work shouldn't happen on the weekend, or before 9am / after 6pm on weekdays.

We're working hard to finish it up and return the on-site experience back to being fully serene and relaxing! Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we continue to grow and improve our space.

** Our tents are semi-off-grid, which means no plumbing or water inside, however, there is electricity, heating, lights, and water from an outdoor spigot. We also have a fully on-grid bathhouse with septic, electricity, and instant hot water**

** NOTE: If you need to sleep more than a king-sized bed and sleeper sofa can hold, let us know! The tent can sleep up to 4 people with a cot added **

The Neighborhood:
On most of the 50 acres, you won't see anything man-made. This creates a fully immersive experience for you. Also, you’ll be on privately owned property with designated hiking trails (map included); please hike, explore, and allow yourself to be free!

* There are other guests that you’ll be sharing the 50 acres with, so don’t free yourself completely, if you know what we mean *

The property also has tons of natural features. The tents sit atop a giant horseshoe of cliff-edges; as you explore, you’ll find sweeping, scenic views of our valley, a waterfall, natural rock overhangs, creeks, and acres more of wildlife!
If you need to get off-property and want to do some fun, local activities, we’re within minutes of local attractions like world-class climbing and hiking, ziplining, underground kayaking (yeah, you heard us), horseback riding, and so many more things! Not to mention all of the wonderful local restaurants you can visit -- don’t worry, we’ve sampled them all and have listed our top 5 in the guestbook and on our website.

If you aren't familiar with Red River Gorge and the surrounding areas, don’t worry -- we'll send you a list of our favorite off-site activities. We want your time away to be extraordinary!

Other Things to Note:

Peaceful and beautiful

This was a great experience for us. The tent was spacious and comfy, the grounds were very clean and well groomed. Very impressed with the bathhouse. It too was spacious, very clean and well maintained. We loved the location as well, close to ziplines, UTV rentals, the Gorge Underground and gas/convenience store but still very quite and secluded.

Secluded and Relaxing

We had a quick getaway at one of the amazing glamping tents and I was thoroughly impressed! As someone who does not like to camp, the AC, King bed, and small touches to the tent made me feel comfortable in the outdoors. It was close to the main road and all RRG restaurant were reachable. Trails were a little far, but that's part of the fun! Highly recommend!
