The place was clean, cozy, and overall just as picturedâvery comfortable for our stay. Unfortunately, we did encounter two mice during our time there. To their credit, the host responded promptly by sending maintenance within a few hours to address it. Three traps were set, which showed they took the matter seriously. While this was definitely unexpected, the quick response helped us feel that the issue was being taken care of. With that resolved, the rest of our stay was smooth and enjoyable.
Great location! The friends and I had a wonderful time. Great area outdoors and very quiet. Not any other cabins close by. Very close to the gorge and many activities that you can complete there. Iwould highly recommend.
Perfect stay for grandma and 12 year old granddaughter. Adequately stocked kitchen so we could eat breakfast and dinner in. Plenty of privacy without being "creepy" secluded. Good wifi. Didn't use the TV or hot tub. Comfy mattresses.
Dear Management,My dad and I are staying at Hiker's Retreat. Breathtaking Experience, Very fair price for the accommodations. And thank you for squeezing us in a day early.
We really enjoyed our stay here. The deck is wonderful and spent most of our time there. We also enjoyed the hot tub and the fire pit. Top shelf in the refrigerator was loose but not a big deal. Hopefully we can return one day.
The shower curtain in the bathroom was super moldy. The property offers a DVD player with no DVDâs. Itâs a family place with no board games or even cards. The hot tub was broken down and we were offered a $75 for both days. Itâs not in the contract anywhere .
Minor issues with hot tub which was taken care of quickly. Nice cabin. Shower could use a better shower head. Beds were decent. Road up to cabin had a lot of large crevices which could be a challenge for less experienced drivers or if you only have a 2 wheel drive. Overall, would stay again!
Definitely a good thing we had a truck with washed out gravel rd to the cabin. Cabin is 50 ft from rd that is surprisingly busy which would not be a big deal if there were curtains or blinds blocking that side of the cabin from the road . On arrival walked in multiple roaches on the floor and spiders in the tub, and the counters were dusty and sticky althoughwe were told it was cleaned that morning, and door lock only sometimes worked but There was clean bedding and towels.
The cabin was great. Everything was clean and ready to go. I would definitely stay again and recommend this property. It was a nice and relaxing getaway with hiking close by.
We really enjoyed our stay. The location was very convenient and felt very quiet and secluded. We had an issue with some electrical stuff not working properly and they sent someone out very quickly to deal with it.
We didn't realize that one of the bedrooms was a loft overlooking the living/dining area. That was a little inconvenient with our younger children but they eventually got used to it.
We arrived in the middle of a downpour and our minivan had a little trouble making it up the hill to the cabin. Once we figured out how to navigate some of the holes in the road we were able to drive up easily.
The cabin was exactly as described and shown in photos. A lovely, very clean, private place surrounded by trees. We especially enjoyed sitting on the large porch in the evenings at sunset, enjoying the quiet.
A low-to-the-ground vehicle might have some difficulty in the final gravel road portion (for us there were numerous rain-filled potholes and deep ruts the last short but steeper section - navigable going slowly in a RAV4 hybrid).
Would absolutely stay here again!! Thank you to our hosts.
Loved the cabin, especially the porch-spent most of the day there. However, the VRBO location is wrong, it is NOT in Slade, itâs in Rogers, about 20 minutes from the VRBO listing. Getting the exact location was confusing and a little concerning since not familiar with the area. The exact location and specific driving instructions could be improved.
We had a great time staying at Hikerâs Retreat! This was our first time at Red River Gorge and the cabin was just perfect for us! It was very clean inside. We enjoyed the hot tub too! I would highly recommend staying here. Perfect for a small family.
Our stay was peaceful and itâs was quiet. We enjoyed the national bridge and hiking trails, also the underground Gorge Underground clear kayak tour. We enjoyed our stay at the Hikerâs Retreat.
Wished we could have stayed longer and definitely plan to come back to the same cabin if we can. We were fortunate to have such warm weather while there so we spent most of our time outside but we believe the cabin would be quite charming in the winter months, especially for a couple.
Once you learn your way around a little you will discover the location is convenient to the east side of the park up through Pine Ridge and also convenient to all the eating places and the state park down route 11.
