Come relax at the peaceful river house. It feels like a retreat right on the Kentucky River with a party-sized dock for easy river access. Itâs a cozy cottage on stilts with a breakfast bar on the porch and swing on the patio. Be surrounded by nature and beautiful views of the river and palisades.
Tuck away in seclusion just minutes away from downtown Wilmore, Asbury University & Seminary. 35 minutes or less from LEX Bluegrass Airport, Keeneland and Shaker Village.

Surroundings were peaceful and relaxing. View was excellent. Recliners and beds were very comfy! Kitchen was well stocked and so roomy! My only complaint is the water pressure in the shower.
A special little nook along the Kentucky river. Quiet and peace I have not experienced before. I didn't want to leave. All the amenities you need and being pet-friendly was a huge relief. I know my big guy enjoyed it as much as I did. A must to visit!
A very charming house with a great view of the Kentucky River. Wi-Fi access was great to have. Owners take very good care of the property and make sure that the house has the amenities needed for your stay. Really nice to have the option of launching kayaks from the dock or going down the street to the boat ramp.Would stay here again.
Visited here for my Fiancees birthday. This is the cleanest VRBO we ever rented. The house had everything we needed for a relaxing time. Very nice scenery. This place is awesome for a weekend getaway.
The house and the view are gorgeous. The boat dock was great to sit and watch the river. Had some trouble keeping the shower at a steady temperature but would still 10/10 recommend
This property was more than we expected. We loved it from the 1st day to the last day. The river view was so relaxing. The railroad was also relaxing after the 1st day. Definitely want to go back again.
Iâve already recommended to friends and family, and we hope to make it back when itâs warmer to really be able to spend time outside and utilize the dock! It was such an easy and peaceful getaway, we loved watching the trains go by! No complaints :)
Great place to relax. Cottage has all the amenities you need to just chill. You will need a little chill after driving the road down and probably do not want to do it in the dark. We really enjoyed the beautiful area!
This is the perfect little getaway spot! It feels like it's in its own world, but it's close to many things to do. The host has thought of all the things the make your stay even better. We will definitely go back!
Nothing could beat relaxing on the back porch, listen for and watching the trains, and simply letting the river peacefully roll by. The house was spotless and had everything we needed for a perfect getaway. Highly recommended!
I booked this cute little cottage for friends that was coming to town. We all loved the cottage and the peacefulness of the area. We had plenty of spaces to hang out at between the porch, the swing at the fireplace, and the dock. We will definitely be back!
The property was perfect! LOVED the location and peacefulness of the river and nature. The house was exactly as described and more! We will definitely come back. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful peace of paradise.
Nice relaxing stay. The owner went above and beyond to notify us of the rising river during the flood of April 2025. They we able to notify us to check out a bit early and get ahead of the rising water to ensure we made it out safely. Thanks again.
Super cute and cozy place. Would have been nice to know ahead of time about the trains that run on the close bridge till 2amâŠstill would have rented it. Very nice rental! Would definitely recommend!
My husband Jonathan and I love the outdoors (rock climbing, kayaking, caving, rappelling), visiting new places and trying new food! I like to keep things neat and tidy and want to live life to the fullest with community!
Feel free to reach out! We're happy to share any way we can. If there's something we can make better or get for you, let us know, we live close by!
You've reached our favorite place in the world - the end of the road! Awaiting you is the beautiful Kentucky River and its palisades (exposed rock cliffs). As you enter the neighborhood keep an eye out for a happy black lab that loves to bark at and chase cars.
There's a great mix of long-time (generations!) locals who are a fixture of the Highbridge community and newcomers (like us) who live full or part-time along the river-bottom. It's our favorite getaway!
Your stay is very close to Highbridge, an active railroad bridge.
When built in 1877, High Bridge was the highest railroad trestle in the world. As part of the busiest north-south route in the nation, it is still used heavily today.
We don't notice the train noise anymore but if you're a light sleeper, consider a sound machine app on your phone or earplugs.
If you go for walk, know that the pups who live on the street are free and friendly, though they will likely do their job and bark at you.
There is a remote possibility of the road being flooded during the winter. We will of course be happy to work with you if you need to cancel your booking due to flooding. It doesn't always happen but it is part of the adventure of living next to a river!
