The Little Lodge at Red River Gorge | Haus in Stanton

Treat yourself to a quiet off grid experience within minutes from the Red River Gorge, Daniel Boone National forest, and Natural Bridge State Park, where you can enjoy miles of hiking, rock climbing, caving, kayaking, zip lining, horseback trails, and off roading adventures! This Little Lodge is a unique experience that makes for a great family experience or romantic getaway for couples.
The space
Welcome to nature at its finest, as we have it all! We are a 5 acre homestead nestled at the back door to the Gorge where many say is much quieter than the Gorge! Your experience off grid begins as you arrive to park at your bridge access where you'll hike about 45 SECONDS into the woods back to your Little Lodge. You are completely surrounded by nature and mountains as we are located at the very back of a holler.
The Little Lodge itself is a unique experience. Enjoy reading it's story when you arrive! It is completely off grid, has tons of all natural lighting, LED candles, and LED lantern. It is recommended you bring head lamps/lamps/flashlights for trail. Even though we are a fully insulated Lodge we also have a wonderful wood stove and heat blower, and windows/door with screens. The Little Lodge is under a full canopy in our woods April-Nov, so it is quite comfortable in the Lodge even on hotter days. We also offer a very nice cooling fan with hook up if you'd like! You also have a unique attached wood chip compost bathroom, this is designed so the guest never has to leave the Lodge, but can still remain an off grid experience. It is a very simple to use system, well sealed and fully ventilated for freshness, but also removable if you prefer. We provide a outdoor camping shower, but no privacy shower stall currently, so feel free to use with swimwear/etc! Towels NOT provided.
The Little Lodge is 167 sq ft of cozy! Super comfortable for 2, and cozy and snug for 4 (2 adults, 1-2 kids) as we have a very plush memory foam twin mattress on the main level and a queen memory foam mattress in the loft. The loft is accessible by ladder only, not suitable for toddlers/babies/young children etc, use at your own discretion. Note: loft roof is A angled (as seen in picture) so if over 5’6”/7” you may not want to sleep in loft.
The Lodge is mostly toxin free! I have tried to keep each guest in mind with providing safe metals for dining, biodegradable products, reusable products, and toxin free washers and cleaners, all 100% pure essential oils. We also ask you to refrain from spraying bug sprays/etc off the property as we are a NO SPRAY ZONE and neighbor to one of the United States best bee breeders!
We provide 1 Gallon of water per day for washing (not drinking) to use in the water dispenser above the kitchen wash bin. Amongst a fully stocked (yet minimalistic) kitchen it includes a one burner butane stove (butane NOT provided), french press, and wood stove to cook on. We offer a collection of teas, coffees, and mulling spices for you to enjoy at your coffee bar. Bring your own drinking water, and ice. We provide a cooler indoors!
INDOOR safe firewood is $6 per bundle
OUTDOOR firewood is $6 per bundle

Other things to note
!!!!!DIRECTIONS!!!!
We live in the woods! GPS has a hard time finding us at times. So...take a left at the church when you come to the fork. From there drive till the road ends at a yellow gate. Right before that you will see a gravel spot to the left of a navy blue gate. Park on the gravel in spot 1 or 2. Note, trash can is right next to your spot for your trash when you leave.
Theres a laundromat, car wash, post office and bank conveniently located about 8 minutes from the rental. See our guest guidebook for all our favorite eats and local Kroger address. We also have an extensive list of shopping nearby listed in the Lodge.
