When it gets brrr cold outside, one of our favorite places to warm up is the John James Audubon State Park Museum. Even when the weather keeps you indoors, you can still experience the wild through Audubon’s artwork and the nature center, which features Kentucky native species.

Roaming the Bluegrass? These four cozy stays promise a warm and successful winter escape in Kentucky.
Book your Cozy Kentucky Cabin through the “Where to Stay” link in our bio.
Cabin in Corydon - This custom-built cabin is the kind of place where you can settle in, warm up, and truly relax. Close to both Downtown Henderson and the Sloughs Wildlife Management Area, it blends convenience with that tucked-away charm every cozy winter trip needs.
Farmer & Frenchman - Set among rolling fields and wooded edges, Farmer & Frenchman’s cabins let you experience the stillness of Kentucky’s winter countryside. With both a winery and café on the property, you can relax, sip, and enjoy the view without ever heading out.
The Cabin - Tucked among lush trees and overlooking a 10-acre lake, The Cabin offers a calming setting from the moment you arrive. It’s the perfect spot to slow down, enjoy the outdoors, and spend uninterrupted time with family or friends.
L&N Bed & Breakfast - Although not a cabin, the L & N Bed & Breakfast offers rich historic character that makes every winter stay feel warm and inviting. Its location in the heart of downtown Henderson puts you steps from local shops, cafés, and riverfront views, creating the perfect place to unwind between adventures.
*Audubon State Park’s cabins are temporarily closed this winter for renovations, so they aren’t included on this list. Be sure to look for their newly updated cottages reopening in the spring.
