Cabin Creek Bridge crosses Cabin Creek on the northwestern edge of Lewis county near KY 984. Also known as the Rectorville Bridge (Rectorville is in Mason county nearby) or Mackey-Hughes Bridge, it was built in 1873 and is a 114-foot single-span Burr truss design. It was closed to traffic in 1983. It was restored and reopened in May 2014.

This is one of Kentucky's remaining covered bridges.
