Cabin in RRG• Pet Friendly • Hi Speed 🛜 Hikers Welcome

10/10 Excellent

"Very lovely property and extremely close to all the trails and scenery to explore. Perfect spot, especially if you have family and you want to be on the same property but still have your own space. The owners were amazing and extremely helpful. My doggies enjoyed their stay as well!"

Theodore Tiny Cabin- RRG Hot Tub! Pet Friendly!

10/10 Excellent

"Love love love! So much adventure and magic at our finger tips! The house was literal perfection and my only negative is not staying longer. You could walk to the trail head, you could drive to all the other trail heads very quickly and easily. Supplying the QR codes for like things to do would be good in advance but we figured it out quickly. Strongly suggest this property for anybody interested in a convenient, comfortable, cozy play to stay in RR gorge. The beds are sooooo comfy and the fans were clutch!"

10/10 Excellent

"Cute cozy log cabin. Very clean and comfortable. Hot tub was relaxing and clean. Peaceful and quiet."

Hikers Gem• Handcrafted Cabin in RRG • Pet Friendly• Fire Pit

10/10 Excellent

"This is an absolutely lovely cabin!! Everything was clean, and I was happy to find plenty of towels! I did have a minor hiccup right after checking in and locked myself out of the cabin. Thankfully I was able to get in touch with Becky ASAP with another cell phone and i got right back in.I did think this was a single unit cabin, and was surprised when I arrived to see there were 3 other rental units in the same building. This may have been why I believed the cabin would be larger than it was, because of the photos. But, all of the units do have their own outdoor spaces and furniture which is very nice. Overall, this is a very nice rental and would absolutely stay here again "

TURNING LEAF•Cozy Cabin in the RRG• Couples Retreat

"The cabin was great! Had some issues finding it as the address provided took us to a house right past it, and it was hard to look for the signs with no lights. Once we found the property it was a great weekend!"

Mountain Laurel-RRG | Hot Tub | Discounted Rates! | Private 12 Acres Next to the Gladie Visitor center off 715 surrounded by National Forest Land and The Best RRG Hiking Trails!

8/10 Good

"We had a wonderful time staying at the cabin. The cabin itself was clean. The porch is another story. The porch is very dirty and should be cleaned as most guests want to sit out there and enjoy it. The doors to the cabin are very dirty and need some attention. We were only left with one towel per person and not enough wash rags per person. Two dish towels and two hand towels for a 5-day stay. You need to leave more towels when people are staying that long. Communication with the host was excellent, we asked for more towels to be brought and she did have the cleaning person bring us more. Also, on the advertisement for this particular cabin it says there's a washer and dryer. However there is not. So I believe your advertisement for this cabin should be updated."
