    my husband and I stayed 1 night it was wonderful. if ever we are passing thru that part of Kentucky again it is at the top of my list of places to stay. the couple that own and run the property were so kind. my husband is very particular about his coffee and what was served with the truly yummy breakfast he said was the best cup he has had this trip.

    It's difficult to find a good place to stay near Mammoth Cave. This railroad inn is a good place. The owners breakfast, and room are all great. The inn has two bedrooms, and the other one was empty. The inn sits by a double RR track and the trains are noisy BUT no train came by all night. The bed's great. Decor is Victorian; there's a gift shop there focused on their high tea side business. Downsides: Rocky Hill is a tiny town with no amenities and not even anything worth looking at. The inn is old but not pretty to look at on the exterior. It does have a nice, long covered porch. We weren't told in advance (not that I noticed) that there's a no-alcohol rule at the inn. It's 20 minutes to the cave from there. I've been in many caves, and while Mammoth Cave is the world's longest, and the visitor center and staff are great, the cave itself is not very much worth seeing. There are many more-interesting caves in America. But if you need a nice place to stay, close to Mammoth Cave, this is it! Recommended.

    Mammoth cave state park is nearby. Property is beautifully decorated. With a gift shop on site. Breakfast was very good and they were able to provide gluten free options.

    Everything was perfect, amazing and great. The food was so good. French toast casserole, phenomenal. It’s off the beaten path but not so far out you can’t get to town quick. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Jim and Janelle were more than accommodating and wonderful hosts for our stay.

    Jim and Janelle were so welcoming to their lovely corner of Kentucky cave country. The house is so beautiful, and the artificial flower bouquets are not to be missed!

    My wife was quite pleased to spend her birthday weekend at Rocky Hill Inn. The decor was charming and quaint. Check-in was a breeze. The owners were very kind and took great care of us. Breakfast was delicious and filling. While the nearby railroad was hard to ignore, it was the only hiccup in an otherwise delightful time.
