Almost Heaven Too is a wonderful cabin in a rural area. We had fun kayaking and fishing and sitting on the porch. The location is about 30-45 minutes from anywhere you would want to go. The animals were fun and the kids enjoyed feeding them. There is a sweet dog (Harley) they had fun playing with and loving on. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a country setting and a relaxing vacation.

Nice place to relax after a day of visiting caves. Beds and sofa were comfy. We were able to cook all our meals at the cabin and had a nice campfire one night. The kids enjoyed the animals too!

We had a great time here for our few days in the Mammoth Caves area. The property is beautiful and the cabin is just as advertised. It was clean and comfortable.
All activities are 30-45 minutes away from the cabin. The drives are easy and have pretty views, but if you're looking for something closer, this may not be the right place.
My kids had a great time fishing, kayaking and feeding the animals.
We would highly recommend this place to anyone.
We plan a week long trip every July and this time we decided to do something new and go simple. The concern we had was, how can we do simple and not hear “IM BORED” all week…. Upon arrival we were met with some of the Friendliest puppies that my kids ended up naming “rocky sausage dog” and “blippie”. They stayed with us all week and we loved it! The kids were incredibly surprised by how friendly all of the farm animals were! There was one goat with really long fur that my kids named “piranha goat”. No clue where they get the names. They spent all week kayaking, swimming and fishing in the pond. It was lovely!! My husband and I could sit out on the porch in the rocking chairs, relax and unwind. The beds had probably the MOST comfortable mattress we’ve ever slept in and we travel all over the world. That alone was impressive. At night you can sit around and watch TV, play board games, or sit on the string lit porch. Overall wonderful!!Downsides: the hiking trail wasn’t super maintained. We walked it once, until we couldn’t figure out what was/wasn’t trail and then quit. Firewood was available to purchase, would have been nice to have some already there for when we got there.
