*4WD/AWD required* Live in harmony with nature at The Taoist - A tiny, beautifully-designed eco-cabin offering all the modern amenities in a quaint and cozy little package. Newly constructed, Amish-built, and eco-conscious, this cabin is both tiny and mighty! Featuring the most photogenic cabin-front in all of the gorge with a stunning window front, spacious sundeck, private fire pit, natural boulder seating, and a towering limestone cliff. Come for the views, stay for a little perspective. What started as a wild idea, eventually evolved into this sweet little space. Created and designed by local Kentucky natives with the help of the Amish community - quality at its finest. COZY UP Inside you will find a small, but surprisingly accommodating living area boasting "the coziest seat in all the gorge" -- an unbelievably snuggly, soft and furry double papasan chair. Nature is integrated throughout with plenty of live plants from pothos to zz's. Enjoy unique decorations featuring local artists such as Allison Maggard. If you happen to find time to get bored, you'll find board games and a smart TV to keep you entertained. NOURISH You'll find everything you need in the small, but well-appointed kitchen. A full-size fridge and sink, microwave, two induction cooktop burners, and a well-stocked K-cup station along with plenty of dishware and a few pots and pans. There is also a small bar top/breakfast nook which comfortably seats 3. We provide olive oil, salt and pepper. NOTE: No oven REST + RECHARGE Climb on up to your private loft with a queen-sized bed, plenty of pillows, and an enchanting canopy to keep it cozy and fun. Downstairs you will find your master bedroom with a queen-sized bed equipped with Serta stay cool pillows. Don't worry though - if you prefer a different sleep experience, we offer a pillow menu with alternate Serta options. And don't forget your beautiful east-facing window-front, allowing you to rise to the morning sun and fall asleep to the stars. NOTE: Guests must climb a ladder to access the upstairs loft bedroom. Highly recommend bringing luggage that can easily be carried up the ladder (ie backpack). There is a large backpack provided to assist guests in carrying belongings up the ladder. GET OUTSIDE Step outside the master bedroom onto your own spacious sundeck. Enjoy the seclusion and privacy afforded by the limestone cliffs and abundant greenery. Get cozy around your private fire pit with natural boulder seating. OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: This cabin is situated in a secluded, wooded area with some steep hills, branches, and other potential dangers. Please do not leave small children unattended and please always be very careful! Check out the rest of our tiny cabin community!
