Log Cabin Lodge Overlooking Ohio River Near Creation Museum & Arc Encounter

This absolutely gorgeous Log Cabin Lodge is great for that special family get together or for a romantic getaway with that special person. The four bedrooms and 3 1/2 baths accommodate up to 12 persons comfortably. The spacious kitchen, dining area, and family room allows plenty of room for family gatherings. The Cabin is equipped with two laundry facilities for convenient laundering. The basement provides a bonus room finished as a large family room, and equipped with a bar and a bumper pool table.

The porch, which wraps 360 degrees around the Cabin, offers a spectacular view of 10 miles of the Ohio River. Enjoy watching boats and barges navigating the river, deer and wildlife wandering in the woods, and even an occasional airplane landing on the river. Facing the river, the porch offers a sunset bar to sit at, sip a drink and enjoy the gorgeous view.

Located in the gorgeous horse country of Kentucky, this Cabin is secluded, but within 20 minutes of the large Florence Mall in Florence, Kentucky, 40 minutes of Downtown Cincinnati, and 35 minutes from the Creation Museum and the Arc Encounter, 25 minutes of the Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport.

Excellent Stay

House was perfect for our group of friends. Very spacious home that slept everyone comfortably. Plenty of amenities that anyone would need. Relaxing on porch looking over river during morning and the evening times was the cherry on top. Will stay again if in the area

This place is definitely remote, but in the best way possible. The closest grocery store is about 20 minutes away. The property has neighbors close by, but the surrounding trees provide privacy. The road getting here is narrow with a few sharp curves, so pay attention to the speed limit. The deck that wraps around the house was great for all of us to relax and enjoy the view of the river. Overall, the area is peaceful and quiet. The lodge itself is VERY baby friendly. There were baby gates and a high-chair to use. Cleanliness could have been better, but it was not something that would stop me from staying again. You can hear people walking on the floor above you, but it was not super loud (and never woke anyone up). Overall, everyone had a good time and enjoyed the stay. We would definitely stay here again if we are in the area.

Family Spring Break

We were happily surprised find that the listing for four bedrooms 3 1/2 baths for this property turned out to be five bedrooms four bathrooms! One suggested place to go ended up being closed for quite a while, not a problem for us, but might be for other guests. All in all, an enjoyable location with great views of the Ohio River valley.

Absolutely Beautiful Setting!

This cabin has a mountain feel with the trees and surrounding area, but the view over the river is spectacular. Drinking coffee from the deck and watching barges float by with all the nature you could ask for. We were blessed to be greated by a baby fawn at the foot of the stairs. It never moved even though we were all around. The momma came and took it home later.Beds are very comfy but you will want to spend as much time as you can on the deck looking at the water. The drive to and from the home is just as good as the home itself. Highly recommend!

Short Getaway

We only stayed for 2 nights and were not in the cabin very much mostly just to sleep. The kitchen looked fully stoked if cooking while there. I will say if you have more than a few people the floors make a lot of noise making the lower level harder to sleep in if you are a light sleeper. The amenities do list hair dryer, but only one for 3 full baths so be prepared if large crowd. The view from the porch of the Ohio River was beautiful

Thanksgiving weekend

Since our new condo was not ready to move in, we needed a place for the family to have Thanksgiving weekend. The cabin is perfect. Plenty of room for everyone and a wonderful kitchen. The view is so nice but yet we were within 45 minutes of home. Made it easy for everyone to come and go. Thank you

Nice cabin

Could have been a little cleaner in some areas and air was set to 80 so we arrived at 4pm but at 1030pm it was still 78 degrees in the cabin. Had a small problem with hot water but Barry was responsive and came out that night to fix the problem. Overall, nice cabin and we had a good time.

Family stay

It was absolutely remote and private. We were visiting the Ark, Creation Museum and the Cincinati Zoo among others and it was conveniently located in the middle of our travels. The personal service Barry offered was above and beyond The Log cabin carried some sounds in the tri level but was excellent for our big group. The two year old was fascinated by the barges passing up and down the river.

Loved the Big House

We had an issue with stove not working but the owners brought a new one the first night there. Loved the house. Very nice views. The owners are very nice. We didn't mind but the road coming to the house is a little rough. Just drive slow. If we are ever back in the area, we will stay here again.

Excellent Property With Lot of Room for All

We stayed an extended weekend at the Jolly Cabin and it was wonderful! The property is beautiful and home like and has plenty of room for lots of people. It included 5 bedrooms and 4 baths. The kitchen is nice and roomy and easy to cook in, big dining and living area. There is a large basement that is in itself like a small apartment. There were kids toys and a high chair. The outside deck wraps around the entire house and has seating in all areas as well as a porch swing. The side facing the river has a bar area to eat as you watch the boats. The inside of the cabin was decorated with antiques and has real animals that were taxidermied. Our grandson loved them! There is a huge laundry room as well. This place was wonderful. The owner Barry is easy to reach and helps with any question. I will definitely stay again if we decide to head that way again. Top notch!
