Gladie Cabin
The Gladie Cabin is a lovely place to have a ceremony if you are wanting a rustic feel of the pioneer days of the Red River Gorge. While walking to the wedding site, your guest will pass a historic barn and cabin from the 1800’s. After the ceremony, they are welcome to tour the grounds and walk through the barn and check out it’s historical artifacts.
There are so many options for this site. You can have your ceremony with the cabin in the background or one of two barns. The old farming plows and tools out in the field make for a beautiful backdrop as well.
