Go big on your next Red River Gorge getaway at Big Boulder, our spacious Creekview retreat sitting just 3 miles, or about 4 minutes, from Natural Bridge State Resort Park. That location alone is hard to beat—but then you add more than 150 private acres of hiking trails, climbing routes, creeks, waterfalls, caves, cliffs, and wooded terrain waiting right outside the door.
When you’re done exploring, the fun doesn’t stop. Big Boulder gives your crew a hot tub, wraparound porch with five porch swings, firepit, arcade table, foosball, two living areas, four Queen beds, and plenty of room to spread out. Whether you’re here with family, friends, or your favorite hiking crew, this is the kind of place where the cabin becomes just as much a part of the trip as the Gorge itself.
• Kitchen + Living 🏡
Our fully stocked kitchen is ready for everything from quick trail-day breakfasts to big group dinners, with an oven, microwave, dishwasher, standard drip coffee maker, French press, blender, hand mixer, cookware, dinnerware, utensils, and everyday cooking essentials.
Big Boulder gives everyone room to spread out with two separate living areas and two TVs. The main living room makes an easy gathering space, while the upstairs living area adds another TV, comfortable seating, a foosball table, and an arcade table. That means part of the group can settle in downstairs while the competitive ones disappear upstairs and argue over who actually won.
Wi-Fi and a washer/dryer are also available for guest use.
• Sleeping Arrangements 🛏️
- Bedroom 1: Queen Bed
- Bedroom 2: Queen Bed
- Upstairs Loft: 2 Queen Beds with a partition between the sleeping areas
Please note that the upstairs sleeping space is still an open-style loft. The partition gives the two Queen beds some separation, but they are not fully enclosed bedrooms.
• Bathrooms 🚿
- Downstairs: Full bathroom with shower/tub combination + vanity
- Upstairs: Full bathroom with tiled stand-up shower + vanity
Fresh linens and towels are provided.
• Outdoor Living 🔥
Big Boulder makes it dangerously easy to spend half your vacation doing absolutely nothing productive. The spacious wraparound porch features a traditional porch swing plus 4 hanging porch swings, giving everyone a spot to kick back with morning coffee, an afternoon drink, or absolutely no plans whatsoever.
After a day exploring Creekview, come back for a soak in the hot tub, fire up the propane grill, or settle around the firepit once the sun goes down. With more than 150 private acres surrounding the Creekview property, adventure starts right outside—and relaxing starts the second you get back.
Firewood is available on-site through our self-service, self-pay firewood station. We encourage purchasing firewood locally to help prevent the spread of invasive species and protect our beautiful wooded areas. Propane is provided for the grill.

We provide an Essential Starter Pack with 2 rolls of toilet paper per bathroom, 1 roll of paper towels, shampoo, conditioner, bar soap, 3 dishwasher pods, 3 laundry pods, 3 trash bags, and 1 fresh sponge. Please note that these supplies are provided as a starter amount and are not replenished during your stay, so you may want to bring or purchase additional items for longer visits.

• Nearby Creekview Cabins 🏡
Traveling with a larger group but still want everyone to have their own space? We also manage nearby Soul Sister, Creeksong, Dreamcatcher, Hillside Haven, Cozy Creek, Angel’s View, and Dreamscape.
Creekview is a great option for reunions, extended families, friend groups, climbing crews, or anyone who wants to stay close together without squeezing everyone under one roof.
🍂 Seasonal Fall Note 🍂
During fall, leaves are actively dropping throughout the Red River Gorge. Our porches, decks, and outdoor spaces are swept and prepared before arrival, but fresh leaves can accumulate quickly—even shortly after housekeeping has finished. A few leaves on outdoor surfaces are a normal part of staying in the woods during autumn and are not an indication that the property was not cleaned.
🌲 A Note About Nature 🌲
You’re staying in the heart of Kentucky’s Red River Gorge, surrounded by the beautiful Appalachian Mountains and all the nature that comes with them. While our cabins are professionally cleaned and routinely treated for pests, occasional insects and other woodland visitors may still make an appearance—especially during warmer months. This is a natural part of staying in a heavily wooded mountain environment and does not necessarily indicate a cleanliness or pest-control issue.
• Security Camera Disclosure 📷
Creekview has exterior security cameras located at the pole barn facing the roadway, at the well house facing the pole barn, near Soul Sister facing the property entrance, and near Big Boulder covering the hill and road intersection. Cameras are exterior-facing only and do not view private or interior spaces.
