Below, you’ll find details on what to pack, how to get here, important details on river and lake access, cabin ground rules, local recommendations, and checkout instructions.

 *Please be sure to read this – we’ve created it so that you can have the best possible experience.

  • Pack n play, cabinet locks, baby gate

  • Fresh, cozy linens and blankets

  • Soft towels for bath time

  • Lake towels provided

Getting Here

Address to enter into maps

784 Logan Antle Rd. Jamestown, KY

Please note - this is not the actual cabin address, this is the address that will get you to the development because you need to enter off Logan Antle Rd.

Additional details

This is an address that gets you to Logan Antle Road. On this single lane road, you will go over two bridges, and up a small hill. At the top of the hill, the entrance for Cabins on the Cumberland will be on your left hand side – you won’t miss it. Turn onto gravel road, unlock the rope gate (no code needed), and pull in closing the gate behind you.

 No matter which direction you are coming from, the roads to get here are through the rolling hills of Kentucky, can be windy, and cell service is spotty - you are in a lake area so just be mindful! 

 Logan Antle Road, which you will take to get here, is a single lane road. Be cautious and courteous.
