Very clean and nicely secluded cabin in Shawnee Forest. We enjoyed the beautiful property full of wildlife and room to explore. The hot tub was wonderful especially on a chilly weekend. Host communicated well, and we had no issues during our stay. Next time we visit this area we would happily stay here again!
We had a really nice getaway at this cabin. The hot tub was great, the shower was awesome, and the bed was super comfortable—everything inside was clean and well taken care of. It’s located right on a beautiful lake, which made for a peaceful stay.Just a heads-up for anyone looking for total seclusion: there are a few other cabins nearby, so it’s not completely private. Still, it was quiet, relaxing, and very enjoyable overall. I’d definitely come back!
