About this house rental

NO SHOES, NO SHIRT, NO NEIGHBORS * NO PROBLEM! Sunset Ridge Wilderness Lodge & Wedding/Event Venue is between Red River Gorge, NBSP & Cave Run Lake in the Daniel Boone Nat. Forest, bordered by ridge top cliffs, where Indians once lived, our 4,500 sq ft. authentic Log Cabin is your secluded getaway! Enjoy a leisure stay, reunion, retreat, honeymoon, or book a separate wedding package, corporate event, etc. at this private 50 acre hideout. Come stay where the blacktop ends!

Fish in 2, Lakes, swim in the pool, relax in the hot tub ... or experience hiking, canoeing, waterfalls, and wildlife viewing at its best, including bald eagles! Wedding & Vowel Renewal packages are available. Have your ceremony in the vintage open air Chapel, 100 yr old barn, on ponds, by cliffs, in woods, in fields, or an intimate ceremony inside the great room, & have your music played on the baby grand piano. Events of any kind we can host for you, so let us take care of it by booking as a venue. Relax, unwind, and listen to nature, because that is all you will hear!

This getaway is close to the Red River Gorge & located in the Daniel Boone National Forest which covers more than 700,000 acres along the Appalachian Mountain foothills and the Cumberland Plateau & containing an estimated 500 miles of trails through rugged terrain made of sandstone cliffs and exposed limestone rock faces. This trail network is larger than any other in Kentucky. Home to the largest collection of natural arches and bridges found east of the Rocky Mountains, the sandstone cliffs offer a lifetime of climbing opportunities at all levels & is one of the most popular climbing meccas east of the Mississippi. Among these cliffs is "Natural Bridge," a magnificent arch, which is 65 feet tall and 78 feet long, is one of the most famous natural sandstone arches.

Cave Run Lake is even closer, where you can enjoy boating, water sports, sailing, swimming & fishing, and is almost completely within the Daniel Boone National Forest. The Kentucky State record for the largest muskie is here, and it is still "The Muskie Capital of the South"!

Our stay at Julie's property was the perfect place for our small family reunion. Very peaceful and thankful to find such a place to make our special memories.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Apr 2025
We enjoyed our stay. Everything was nice. Kitchen had everything you would need and more. Bedrooms were all nice and spacious. Pool was up and going the end of March. The kids loved that. Our family loves the outdoors. They enjoyed fishing both ponds. Exploring and hiking. If we didn’t have other plans, we could have just stayed at the house and explored all there was to see right there. The hot tub had a very strong chemical smell. It did get better during our stay, but was still strong. It would be nice if the furniture was a little more comfortable. We like to relax and stretch out after hiking during the day. Most of the furniture are chairs. A few couches or lazy boys where you can kick your feet up would be nice. Other than that we had a great time. Julie answered all questions we had quickly.

This beautiful and well kept property was an amazingly relaxing atmosphere for our reunion. From the private lake fishing, the pool, & hot tub to the most elegant & functional kitchen imaginable, it was just perfect in every way
5.0 / 10.0·Sep 2020
Sunset Ridge Farm was the perfect getaway for our group! The property is beautiful with a great in-ground pool and 2 lovely ponds for boating & fishing. The house is very well appointed with comfortable bedding & furniture-- higher quality than we're used to in similar rental properties. The kitchen has amazing top of the line appliances, so cooking every meal was very easy. The AC worked perfectly and kept us all comfortable. The house has a shockingly fast internet connection despite being out in the countryside. Ironically, their internet connection is faster than what's currently available at my house in Columbus, OH... The bathrooms were very nice too, although if I were to nitpick, the water pressure for the shower was pretty weak. At night, the outdoor fire pit was lovely and gave us great views of the stars. Our stay just happened to be at the peak of the Perseid meteor showers, so that made our nights extra special. It was also so nice that they provided us with firewood.Additionally, there was a substantial amount of kids toys for use in the upstairs bedroom, which was a very nice feature for our group since we had multiple kids. Everyone in our group loved our stay, and we would definitely jump at an opportunity to stay here again. Thank you Julie for hosting us!
