Staff was friendly and informative. Cabin was clean and ready to go. Perfect place to stay with multiple family members or for a get away. Hot tub is a must try.
Great experience overall. Loved the hot tube and the lay out. Wonderful property. The miles to a store and e short but the road is very curvy so I recommend bringing in what you need.
The property was just what was expected the management team was very responsive before the stay. They called us before hand to tell us the hot tub was not going to be functional for the weekend and offered to switch us cabins or refund the cleaning fee for the hot tub. It was great to be contacted for this but the cabins view was what our group was after all along. We would stay at this property again in the future.
The drive up the mountain is worth it! The hot tub was so nice and so we're the views. The beds could be more comfortable but not bad for a weekend stay. It was nice to have dishwasher pods, and dish soap. A couple washer pods would have been nice as well but no big deal just a suggestion! There were plenty of towels, hand towels and wash clothes for us all to use which was very convenient. My family loved it and enjoyed the beautiful view and cabin! We couldn't figure out how to work the fireplace but it might have been our fault 😅 We didn't want to bother to call and have someone come up since we mostly just spent the night there! The office workers were friendly on check in and check out and helped me figure out where the dumpster was. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend! ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
We traveled here from Michigan and stayed one week at The Gathering Place. The basic amenities are provided here and should you need something, the office is manned daily. (We reported no propane for the fireplace and the request was fulfilled.) The cabin affords decent views of the Appalachian foothills; although, there is a cabin across the road from The Gathering Place that obstructs the horizon. The view is still stunning!
We were centrally located to visit the Mill Springs Battlefield, Perryville Battlefield, Original KFC in Corbin, and the Castle & Key Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. (We highly recommend a tour at the distillery.) 😉
Note: Use extreme caution when driving the 5-6 miles of twisting roadway to and from the cabin. One afternoon an oncoming vehicle was speeding and clearly had crossed over the center line…we narrowly escaped a head-on collision!
Overall, we would recommend a stay at the Cumberland Resort Properties.
Loved the location. The kitchen was stocked very well with every dish/utensil you could need and there were basic seasonings there too. We enjoyed the pool table and hot tub. We drove to one of the pools one night and enjoyed it as well.
Place was very nice and just like the pictures showed. Neighbors were very nice too. Bonus was the screened-in porch, as I tend to get bit by bugs a lot.
