Escape to a tranquil cabin in Wellington for a relaxing getaway. This beautiful 2-bedroom retreat offers all the essentials for a comfortable stay. Whether you're planning a long vacation or a quick weekend trip, our brilliant cabin is the perfect spot to unwind and create lasting memories. Just 5 mins from Cave Run Lake’s Longbow Marina & steps from Daniel Boone National Forest. Sip morning coffee or enjoy sunset views on the deck, grill with forest views, or gather by the fire pit under the stars. Perfect for hiking, fishing, boating, hunting and exploring Red River Gorge, with dining and shopping nearby in Morehead & Frenchburg. It is about 25 minutes drive to Morehead State University if you wanted to visit a relative or watch a sporting event. As you step through the door of the Cardinals Nest, the first thing you’ll see is our fully equipped kitchen, ready with everything you need to cook a great meal. Just beyond the kitchen, there’s a cozy dining area with seating for four and a laundry room off to the side. From there, you’ll step into the inviting living area with a comfy couch, recliner, and a propane fireplace perfect for cozy evenings. We’ve got video games, playing cards, and Uno ready for some family fun. Plus, if you have extra guests, we have a blow-up mattress so you can accommodate up to six people comfortably. Heading upstairs, both bedrooms have comfy queen-size hybrid mattresses and Samsung TVs. One bedroom even has a walkout porch overlooking the Daniel Boone National Forest—perfect for your morning coffee. Outside, you’ll find a front porch with a small table and chairs, an upper back deck for lounging, and a lower back deck with a barbecue grill and seating. We do ask that you bring your own charcoal and firewood if you’d like to use the grill or the fire pit. For parking, we have a spot right by the cabin and an upper parking area for those without all-wheel drive. If you’re bringing a boat, just let us know in advance, as the road can be tight and there’s no turnaround space. And of course, we just ask you to be mindful of the neighbors and keep everything clean. Overall, the Cardinals Nest is a welcoming space that makes everyone feel at home, whether you’re here for adventure or just a peaceful getaway. For your convenience, we offer easy self check-in using a keypad lock. Here’s how it works: Keypad Code: On the morning of your check-in, we’ll send you a personalized code for the keypad. Just enter this code to unlock the door and make yourself at home! Wi-Fi Access: We know cell phone service can be a bit spotty in our cozy, wooded area. If you have any trouble with your phone signal when you arrive, don’t worry! We’ll provide the Wi-Fi password along with your keypad code that same morning. Just hop onto the Wi-Fi and you’ll be able to reach out to us if you need anything. Backup Option: In the rare event that you run into any issues with the keypad or connectivity, we have an alternative access option available. Just let us know, and we’ll guide you through it.
