Re: Cabin Recommendation

I've rented cabins from Natural Bridge Cabin Co. (http://www.nbcabins.com/) and have always been very happy. They have cabins in various areas that range from pretty basic and inexpensive to larger and more plush.

Re: Large Relatively Cheap Cabin For Rent

Check with Natural Bridge Cabin Company at 606-663-3700. We've rented their Sunset Ridge cabin a number of times and it always went for less than $300/night. It sleeps eight, has a hot tub and is just up the road from Miggies.
