Embrace the Chill More Ways Than One at This Cozy Winter Getaway in Kentucky

When chilly weather arrives in the Bluegrass State, it's time to get cozy. Winter brings a natural change of pace, and things slow down just a little bit. Instead of swimming and tubing on the lakes, gardening, or hiking among wildflowers, it's time to enjoy the warmth of a crackling fire, get lost in a novel, tackle a puzzle, or play board games with family and friends.

We found a beautiful country Airbnb in Rogers, the perfect place for a cozy wintertime getaway in Kentucky.

For me, winter is a time to reflect and recharge, and nature is the best place for me to do that. This modern A-frame cabin in Rogers, Kentucky, is the perfect place for a winter getaway. Sitting pretty on a quiet ridge on the Red River Gorge, this 1,000-square-foot A-frame cabin seamlessly blends into its natural surroundings while still providing all of the modern comforts you’d expect. 

The cabin features two bedrooms with two beds and one bathroom, making it perfect for a family vacation or a couple’s retreat. It’s cozy and charming, the perfect blend of minimal (yet functional) design. 

I’m a big fan of booking properties with a view, or at least staying somewhere that works with its surroundings. That’s exactly what you’ll find when you book a stay at this cabin—the 20 foot glass wall not only gives you ample daylight, but you’ll be able to enjoy the nature outside from just about any room in the cabin. 

The deck outside is where you’d find me for the majority of the stay. Guests can relax in the hot tub or gather around the smokeless fire pit and soak in those dreamy forest views. Nothing beats a cold-weather campfire, right?

The modern cabin has a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook up your best meals, though I wouldn’t blame you if you decided to enjoy some of the many delicious local restaurants in the area. Red River Rockhouse is a family-owned joint with some of the best burgers in Kentucky. For an old-school tavern vibe with home-cooked meals, check out Sky Bridge Station. Pro tip: get the nachos. 

Of course, visiting the Red River Gorge is a no-brainer when you’re staying in Rogers. The gorge offers endless outdoor recreation, ranging from climbing to hiking and everything in between. Even the Red River Gorge Scenic Byway offers an opportunity to drive through some of the state’s most spectacular scenery without ever leaving your car. 

After a day of exploring the gorge, head back to this dreamy winter cabin in Kentucky and sleep soundly in one of the two beds. The primary loft bedroom offers a king-sized bed, and the main floor bedroom has a queen bed, both with high-end linens and lovely views.
