Bungalow | 1 Bed, 0.5 Bath

Want to enjoy climbing and hiking and the beautiful outdoors in Red River Gorge? The Bungalow sleeping porch is the perfect OFF THE GRID retreat that offers a great combination of camping and modern amenities.

The Bungalow sleeping porch is not your average cabin in the woods!  Leave the complexities of modern life at home and enjoy the simplicity that the Bungalow has to offer. The Bungalow features fully screened-in walls for maximum nature-human connection (therefore, this is an UN-insulated structure). You’ll wake to the morning light tickling through the canopy just as soon as the sun shines!  Breakfast? Say hello to your new outdoor kitchen - a small propane stove, compact dishwashing station and bar table for two.  There is also a full picnic table with four chairs just behind the cabin nestled in a tiny hemlock grove.

Sit back and relax on the porch - you’re in nature’s backyard now! But don’t worry, if “nature calls”, Bungalow’s private composting outhouse is just a hop, skip and a jump away.  And when night falls and you're tired of gazing at Mother Nature’s primetime television (fireflies and starry skies), pop inside and rest your head on a spacious lower queen-sized bed, or the full-size mattress bunked up in a loft.  There's no electricity here at the Bungalow, so be sure to take advantage of the lanterns provided and bring your headlamp.

The Bungalow is conveniently located in the heart of Red River Gorge, a short walk from the Martins Fork trail head, and is close to popular rock climbing spots like Left Flank and Military Wall.  Whether you are enjoying a hike, climbing, soaking in nearby swimming holes, engaging in kayaking or zip lining adventures or relaxing by the campfire you will be sure to find your much-needed rest and relaxation at the Bungalow!

Please note that this cabin is up a bumpy, sometimes muddy, gravel road.  Small two-wheeled vehicles can make it to the cabin, but four wheel drives have an easier time.

Great experience
If you're looking for an off grid sleeping porch in the red river gorge, this one has a nice wooded view.

Fun off grid get away.
The bungalow has everything you need for a short “off grid” stay. The little kitchen area was well equipped and even included a few towels. The screened in bed area was nice and cozy. We stayed warm and dry even through a thunderstorm. The compost toilet was clean and had plenty of supplies.

Awesome property, doesn’t lock
This place is just as clean and quirky as the pictures. The hosts do a great job with hospitality, making it a great option if you want the camping experience without many of the downsides of tent camping. As warning, there really is no way to lock yourself in at night. I would recommend to the owners putting the doors on a track so they can’t pop in, and putting a simple latch to hold the doors together. It would not compromise the view but would make it feel a little more secure and increase our enjoyment of the property immensely.
