About this cabin rental
Relax with the whole family in this peaceful setting. Black Ridge Cabin is very secluded and quiet. It is off the road , overlooking a small creek where there is always water. Lots of windows to enjoy the scenic views and wildlife anytime of year. Ample space outside on the deck or around the firepit to enjoy nature, play in the creek and just relax. And an added bonus is that we are a hobby farm. So you can enjoy the fowl, peacocks, horses, and other animals. We also have stalls for your horses, and trails very near.
The space
Private, many outside spaces , comfortable indoor spaces. The cabin is located just off the road enough to be very quiet and private with nature all around, but not far enough to be difficult to access easily.
It is located on our small hobby farm and just above a small creek. Outdoor spaces include a covered patio and a paver patio with a firepit for you to enjoy(firewood and starter materials provided). Close to Garden of the Gods, Rim Rock, Pounds Hollow Lake with a beach for swimming and the Iron Furnace, Cave in Rock and the river ferry to Kentucky are an easy drive away. Adjacent to the forest for easy access to trails for hiking and horseback riding. Bicycle trails at Glen O Jones Lake, a few miles away.
Guest access
You will have full access to our 20 acres hobby farm, including the barn where there are peacocks & pigeons located. Quiet low traffic road with access to trails for hiking or horseback riding. Stalls for your horses are located at the cabin and more in the barn.
Other things to note
You can interact with the small animals on our hobby farm if you like. Use caution around the horses. Sam is the dog guarding the animals. He is very friendly and loves pets. We do offer horse and buggy rides for a fee. We now have swings and a slide for the kids.

We really like this place, it’s the only one we’ve ever gone back to more than once. It’s very clean, comfortable and well equipped. The outside area is absolutely fabulous. The covered porch, patio and fire pit all overlook the confluence of two very small creeks.We use it as a relaxing getaway, but there’s lots of great hiking in the area and the Ohio River is only twenty minutes away.The hosts are friendly and easy to communicate and get along with.

This property is amazing!!!!!! Loved everything about it! The host was the sweetest! Very quiet rural place. Loved sitting on the porch- both inside and outside watching the birds and just relaxing. Great escape and close to lots of hiking and beautiful scenery! I soooo wanna go back!

Our family stayed at Black Ridge cabin for a week during spring break. The house is absolutely beautiful. The kitchen had everything we needed and more! We got to play board games on the big dining room table and roast hotdog over the fire pit. We were close enough to visit all of the local parks and yet far enough out that we really felt like we were in nature. All of us enjoyed the buggy ride and our hosts were so kind and communicated very quickly.

The cabin is very nice, the area is quiet and peaceful, we loved our stay in it, and the extras touches they offer made it special to us. Coffee and cream, games to play, firewood for the outdoor fire pit. And it's very near to lots of outdoor adventures at Shawnee National Forest.
