About this property

50 Shades of Slade | Private Hot Tub, Pet-Friendly | 5 Minutes to Natural Bridge

  • Your RRG adventure begins at 50 Shades of Slade!
    Our welcoming, dog-friendly home sleeps 4 in 2 queen bedrooms and sits just 5 minutes from Natural Bridge. Spend the day exploring trails, climbing, kayaking, or grabbing pizza at Miguel`s. Then fire up the propane grill, soak in your private hot tub, and relax by the firepit. With 3 Smart TVs & a full kitchen, settling in is simple. We`re near the Mountain Parkway, so you may hear traffic and see road lights—but you`re right where the action is!

    - 50 Shades of Slade is a non-smoking, dog-friendly home in the heart of Slade! -

    Put yourself right in the middle of Red River Gorge at 50 Shades of Slade, our easy-access 2-bedroom home located just off the Mountain Parkway and only 3 miles—or about 5 minutes—from Natural Bridge State Resort Park. With a hot tub, firepit, fenced outdoor space, two Queen bedrooms, and some of the area’s biggest attractions just minutes away, this is a great home base for travelers who want to spend less time getting there and more time actually enjoying the Gorge.

    Whether your plans include hiking, climbing, paddling, The Gorge Underground, Miguel’s, or simply soaking in the hot tub after a full day out, 50 Shades makes it easy to stay close to the action without giving up the comforts of home.

    • Kitchen + Living:
    The open-concept kitchen and dining area includes an electric stove and oven, microwave, French-door refrigerator with built-in ice and water dispenser, standard drip coffee maker, Keurig, toaster, waffle maker, cookware, dinnerware, and everyday cooking essentials.
    Coffee and coffee supplies are not provided.
    The kitchen island offers additional seating, while the living room includes comfortable seating and a Smart TV. Both bedrooms also have their own Smart TVs, giving everyone a little extra space to unwind.

    • Sleeping Arrangements:
    - Bedroom 1: Queen Bed + Smart TV
    - Bedroom 2: Queen Bed + Smart TV
    One bedroom also includes the washer/dryer.

    • Bathroom:
    - 1 Full Bathroom with vanity + beautiful tiled stand-up shower
    Fresh linens and towels are provided.

    • Outdoor Living:
    Step outside and settle into the hot tub, fire up the propane grill, or spend the evening around the firepit.

    The side yard and a portion of the backyard are fenced, giving dogs and guests some additional separation from the surrounding area. Please note that the property is not fully fenced, as the hillside portion of the backyard remains open.

    Outdoor seating is also provided.

    • Pet Policy:
    50 Shades of Slade is dog-friendly. A $100 pet fee covers up to 2 dogs.
    Please make sure pets are selected at checkout so the appropriate pet fee is included with your reservation. Dogs only, please, and they must be crated if left unattended inside our home. Unauthorized or undisclosed pets may result in additional fees.

    • Starter Essentials:
    We provide an Essential Starter Pack with 2 rolls of toilet paper, 1 roll of paper towels, shampoo, conditioner, bar soap, 3 laundry pods, 3 trash bags, and 1 fresh sponge.
    Please note that these supplies are provided as a starter amount and are not replenished during your stay, so you may want to bring or purchase additional items for longer visits.

    • Firewood + Grill:
    Firewood is not provided, but it is available for purchase at most local gas stations. We encourage purchasing firewood locally to help prevent the spread of invasive species and protect our beautiful wooded areas. Propane is provided for the grill.

    • Parking + Access:
    50 Shades of Slade is one of our easier properties to access, with a flat, well-maintained blacktop road and blacktop driveway.
    Standard vehicles are suitable under normal weather conditions. 4WD is recommended during snow, ice, heavy rain, or other inclement weather.
    Parking is limited to 2 vehicles maximum. Trailers are prohibited.

    You will receive the exact property address, GPS-friendly directions, and check-in instructions via SMS 3 days prior to arrival. Please make sure the phone number on your reservation is valid and able to receive text messages. If you do not receive a confirmation text from us, please reach out so we can make sure you have everything you need before check-in!

    • Location + What to Expect:
    Convenience is one of the biggest advantages of staying at 50 Shades of Slade.

    Natural Bridge State Resort Park is only 3 miles, or about 5 minutes, away, with Miguel’s Pizza, The Gorge Underground, hiking, climbing, kayaking, canoeing, zip lines, restaurants, and many of the area’s most popular attractions close by.

    That convenient location does mean this is not a secluded cabin in the woods. Our home sits along a busy road near the Mountain Parkway, so traffic noise, passing vehicles, and roadway lights should be expected.
    If easy access and being close to everything are high on your list, 50 Shades is hard to beat.

    • Security Camera Disclosure:
    One exterior security camera covers the entrance/exit area of the property. The camera is exterior-facing only and does not view private or interior spaces.

Overall great place. The area is noisy due to being near a road but overall good stay. The key pad wasn’t working when we arrived and had to contact the management and was able to get the code for the key lock. Beautiful home, and great price!

Quick overnight stay

Booked this place due to location. It’s super close to red river gorge and all that it brings. The front of the house is really close to the road but the back makes up for it. The fence makes it feel secluded and the hill behind the house allowed our dog to get all her zoomies out! Was an amazing place to stay and you can tell someone really went out of their way to make it look really nice! 10 out of 10 would stay again

Recently updated/Close to everything

Property has clearly been recently updated and they did not skimp on the finishes. Soft close custom cabinetry, stone countertops, hardwood floors, and tile shower. Backyard is private with hot tub, firepit, and grill. Beds were very comfortable. The update is top notch. Only negative is the proximity to the road and a couple of properties nearby that are a little messy to look at. Those do not detract from the stay at all. Minutes from the interstate, trails, State Park and restaurants. Highly recommend this property.

Centrally located home for exploring Red river gorge

The home appears to be very newly remodeled. Nicely decorated and very clean. Having a washer/dryer was a plus. We were there for 4 nights. Host was quick to respond to questions during our stay. Hot tub had a great view of the night sky. Home location is close to roads so you do hear traffic but that was mentioned in description. The microwave and upper kitchen cupboards are mounted higher than typical so it could be an issue if you are of short stature.

Overall Good Experience

Overall good experience. Property was updated and in convenient location. Down fall would be arrival. As seen in other comment(s), code did not work. Called management and got issues resolved fairly quickly (Heather was great). Road noise was a bit on the loud side but not terrible.

Spacious Interior, Well Maintained

Fantastic location directly off the Bert T Combs (exit 33). Beautiful, comfortable and well appointed interior. Open floor plan allows time together but well sized bedrooms provide room for quiet time. Very large backyard, if you are willing to walk up the hill, for kids and pups to run around. The only con is that the backyard is not fully fenced in. Fence is great for privacy, but does not enclose the complete front or roadside area of the yard so you will need to watch kids and/or pups as ours about got away. Also be mindful of the chained up dogs across the street.

Overall a wonderful stay. There’s an exterior light that switches on and off ALL NIGHT LONG that seriously disrupted our sleep. Another guest mentioned it in their review last August and nothing has been done about it. The house would also benefit from hooks in the bathroom and bedrooms to hang towels and clothes. Other than that, it’s a great stay.

Red River convenience and practical comfort

Appreciate the "retreat" nature of this home after activities for the day. Nice proximity to a couple of convenience stores, local "attractions", and easy on/off to parkway for further excursions. Only "complaint", would be nice to have a little more water pressure for the shower.

Comfortable and Clean

The property was exactly as it was described. It was a great location for us and the house was clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated. We appreciated all the little things that the owner thought to include, like extra cozy blankets, toiletries, and kitchenware. We were very relaxed in the home. The beds were very comfortable, as were the sofa and chairs. The hot tub and firepit were clean and ready to go. We were looking forward to using them, but never got the change on this trip. Additionally, the communication with the owner was exceptional. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone staying in the area.
