It’s true that most of us do not spend all of our days in a charming cabin nestled on a private lake, relaxing in Kentucky’s natural beauty… but that sure sounds nice, doesn’t it? Luckily, many Kentuckians have created getaways like this that we can experience for ourselves, even if only for a night or two. We’ve discovered a dreamy secluded cabin with a private pond tucked away in Eastern Kentucky that does, indeed, offer complete peace and quiet amongst 13 spectacular acres of space. But be forewarned: chances are you’ll never want to leave!

When the driveway of a home is a gravel path through thick woods, you know you're headed someplace special!

The cabin is located on 13 acres close to the West Virginia border and the city of Huntington.

The three bedroom, two bath house is positioned right on a lovely little lake, which includes its own covered dock. It's the perfect spot for fishing and watching the sun go down. The property is wooded and hilly, but there are some flat spots for exploring.
The cabin may be tucked away in the woods, but it is surprisingly beautiful inside.
Airbnb
The entire space is decorated with a rustic, wildlife theme, which adds so much Kentucky character.
The main living space is large and open and includes everything you will need for your stay.
Airbnb
The kitchen is fully stocked - just bring your own food - and there is also a large gas fireplace and cable TV.
With three sleeping spaces in the cabin, there's plenty of room for the entire family.

As nice as the cabin is, you'll want to spend as much time as possible outdoors.

There are also plenty of other outdoor adventures nearby, both in West Virginia and Kentucky.

Yatesville Lake State Park in Kentucky is just a short drive away and has a beautiful lake and hiking trails. It's also only 15 minutes from a gas station, a few restaurants, and other necessities.

The pond and surrounding forest are so picturesque...

...even with a blanket of snow.

This dreamy lakefront cabin is the relaxing location you’ve been looking for. All you need are a few changes of clothes, some groceries, a good book, and a fishing pole and you will be set for a quiet retreat. From the minute you arrive, you’ll realize how difficult it will be to leave this charming cabin when the time comes.
