Looking for a romantic retreat that's close to home but feels a world away? Treetops of Mammoth, a Mammoth Cave Resort, offers the perfect escape for couples seeking a peaceful road trip getaway. Tucked into the hills of southern Kentucky, this historic property blends natural beauty, adventure, and quiet relaxation—making it ideal for a romantic weekend.
Joshua and Scarlett Roney were drawn to the property four years ago, captivated by its serene atmosphere and deep historical roots. Steeped in local history, once belonging to a family that lived and worked the land for generations, the Roneys even discovered an old baptism hole, where local churches once baptized congregants. It's said to be near the path Daniel Boone traveled, with his carvings still visible on rock overhangs near the property. This mix of history, adventure, and natural beauty gives the resort a timeless, quiet feel.
As they dove into renovating a 100-year-old farmhouse, the Roneys also decided to create a unique getaway nestled in the backwoods of the property. They built three charming treehouses, offering couples a peaceful sanctuary among the trees. Designed with romance in mind, these treehouses provide everything needed to slow down and reconnect. Surrounded by woods, creeks, and seasonal waterfalls, the setting is intimate and enchanting, with elevated decks offering breathtaking views. At night, the stars fill the sky, and a private fire pit invites you to cuddle up.
This adventure isn't just about the destination; it's about the journey. As you make your way through the rolling hills of Kentucky, you'll pass picturesque countryside, making the road trip itself part of the experience. Just over an hour from Lebanon, the drive includes stops like the new Buc-ee’s at Exit 38 and Bluegrass Vineyards for wine tasting—perfect prelude to your romantic retreat.
Once you arrive, you'll feel miles away from everyday life. Explore the resort’s natural beauty, hike through the woods, or simply enjoy the peaceful sound of the creek while relaxing on your treehouse deck. Nearby attractions like Mammoth Cave National Park and the Lost River Cave offer adventure for couples who love to explore, while local wineries and restaurants provide opportunities for wining and dining.
This road trip getaway is the perfect way to unwind, reconnect, and create lasting memories—without traveling too far from home. Book your stay today and visit Instagram @treetopsofmammoth for more information.
