So welcoming and relaxing. The lake is down the hill. The stairs to the pathway are a little steep but manageable. Lake was a bit murky. There is a dock for use which is nice. Saw a couple of deer. Enjoyed everything from the hot tub to the games in the garage. A great mini vacation! Thank you for such a lovely place! ##### jerri d. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erin C. Mar 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Loved it!! Stayed here for a very relaxed bachelorette party/girls weekend. The cabin was fantastic (we were all very impressed)! Melissa was great about sending us a list of things to do in the area and responded quickly. The cabin was super clean and very well stocked with all of the essentials plus a ton of games, s’more supplies, and an “in case you forgot something” basket. The beds were comfortable (even the day bed). Many of us said we would love to return for another trip. Reception isn’t great at the cabin/the surrounding area but we all had a good WiFi connection :) You may have to drive a little ways to get to things to do/restaurants, but we didn’t mind this at all… the surrounding area is very pretty. Wish we could have stayed longer. Would 100% recommend. ##### Erin C. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly S.

It’s beautifully decorated with tons of personality and charm. The owners go the extra mile to make your stay special. Our kids (ranging from 4-15) had fun in the game room every day. The adults loved hanging in the hot tub at night and listening to the cicadas. We visited Mammoth Cave, Barren River Lake State Park, and Dinosaur World during our trip. We’ll be back! ##### Kelly S.

Carefully placed, hand-written cards encouraged us to enjoy all the place had to offer. The space is well-designed for a larger group. The kitchen had every thing you'd need to cook big dinners to serve around a wonderful dining room table. The home was wonderfully decorated and clean. The host was easy to reach with any questions. Our only regret is that we didn't have more time to take advantage of all there was to enjoy. We have already recommended the place to others who plan to be in the area. ##### Jackie R.

The property was as advertised and has everything you could need, all we needed was groceries. Communication was great and very responsive. The game room in the garage was so much fun and the hot tub was super relaxing. The Mammoth Cave area is about 45 minutes drive (if you like the small roads like us). We had fun at Dinosaur World, Kentucky Down Under and exploring caves and the area in general. My 8 year old has already voted to return - to the area and the house. This is definitely a place we would put in our VRBO 'return' list. ##### Suzie C. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kirby C.

The cabin was beautiful inside and out! The rooms were amazing and the beds were so comfy! It was such a fun and cozy place. It felt like being in Gatlinburg without traveling very far! The cabin had everything you would need and activities, such a corn-hole boards, pingpong tables, and air hockey! They blankets for the fire were great and there was even a s’mores kit left for us. Also had little notes throughout the cabin explaining things. The list could go on for how amazing the stay was. I will definitely recommend this cabin and hope to stay again in the future! ☺️ ##### Kirby C. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sabina S.

I can’t give enough great reviews to this property. Everything was immaculate. There were so many little details that made it perfect. The kitchen was fully stocked. Everything you could possibly need was already there. The beds were super comfortable. There were plenty of towels and blankets. The downstairs was a great hang out area. The spacious deck was perfect for grilling out. When we needed something during the weekend, the running joke was “I bet the cabin already has it!” Melissa was an excellent host. She checked to make sure we made it and was easily accessible all weekend. We will definitely book again! This cabin is a gem close to home we didn’t know about. ##### Sabina S.

Jun 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful stay even tho it rained This was an incredible place to stay. Loved the old woods (incl the drive in), the house, the hot tub, the deck, fire pit. So comfortable. So many thoughtful touches. Decor was so well done but also so inviting. Our only disappointment was the weather. Our usual m.o. in nature is to be outside for everything possible. Unfortunately, most of our visit was rainy. We had so much fun as a family playing games in the basement with the garage open, tho, enjoying the sounds of rain. Enough reprieves in the weather tho to enjoy the fire pit and hot tub a few times each, and somewhat the deck, but never got to kayak. The lake was also 12’ over normal, and trying to get a kayak off the shore (too many of the trees in the way) looked like more than we could swing anyway. I seem to remember the posting for this property didn’t guarantee lake access. It’s true. If kayaking is a must, choose another property. This place is a gem otherwise. And so is the owner. ##### Lynda G.
