Clean place and comfortable beds. Very well kept by the owners. Right off the highway which was convenient (little bit of highway noise though). Close to the Red River Gorge which was nice.

Great place for Hikers
This Inn is easy to access off the Mountain Parkway, close to food choices and near plenty of trails. The room was smaller but very clean, sm frig, microwave, TV w/plenty of choices, great pillows and bed. They have a small yard in the back with a fire pit to relax after dark. Noticed some noise complaints about cars passing by but not a problem for us. Would definitely stay again!

Cozy, Charming, Captivating!
This adorable Inn sits right off of Bert Combs Mountain Parkway. Nestled at the edge of Clay City's business district, it grabs your attention immediately. You are greeted by an 8 foot Bigfoot likeness, and the sweetest Inn owners (Lyndsey and Charlie) ever! The rooms are inviting, clean, comfortable and provide everything you really need for a short trip to Red River Gorge or surrounding area. If you are interested in the Bigfoot legends, stories or experiences this is the place to stop too! Charlie Raymond will be happy to tell you about Bigfoot and the Kentucky Bigfoot Research Organization. Just ask!! If I could give it 10 stars I would!!!

Other than the door needing to be fixed to close properly, the stay was absolutely lovely! I would highly recommend!! The owners were the BEST, and made it all worth staying here! It was a short drive to all the attractions and restaurants. The scenery was beautiful! Rooms were clean, furnished, TV was nice, and even the guests were respectful. Even being close to the road, still very quiet. Absolutely the best place to stay if you are visiting the RRG!! Thank you!
