HOT PINK HOMESTEAD

Hi! I'm Rachel, owner and manager of Hot Pink Homestead.

 

I spent my 20s farming, gardening, living in community and traveling around the United States, Thailand and Mexico. In my 30s I moved to the Red River Gorge and worked with various small businesses in the short term rental industry. With my past learnings in mind, I aimed to create a comfortable, colorful, affordable place for climbers and travelers to rest between adventures.

 

Now I spend my days feeding chickens, tending the gardens and cleaning rentals! It's important to me to take good care of the house, property, plants, animals and guests. It's also very fun for me to be orchestrating a weird, dynamic little art project! I love continually improving the functional design of the space and playing with colors, art and lighting. Check out our four rental options above to see what we've created. 

​

It's definitely been a group effort. Three out of our four rentals were built or renovated by three different friends of mine (all of who also live in the Red River Gorge area). They built/renovated them for themselves, lived in them for a few years, then sold them to me. I am still so amazed by their talents! My partner Andrew also helps me run the homestead. He is particularly talented at maintaining our technological systems and joyfully talking about climbing with guests. Looking for tips on which crag to go to or beta on certain routes? He's your dude.  

 

Beyond hosting, I intend to spread the values and skills of environmental stewardship, ecosystem reciprocity, functional community living and nurturing one's best self. I encourage you to follow us on Instagram to see photos of our projects and to read little musings from the mind: @hotpinkhomestead
