Perfect Little Cabin
This cozy cabin was perfect for our needs! My husband, our 14 yr old son and myself were in Cookson for the Bassmaster Jr/ HS tournament. The location was perfect! We were close to the tournament ramp at Chicken Creek and used the Cookson Bend ramp for practice days. It was super convenient! The cabin was a peaceful place for the boys to relax after being on the water all day and a great place for me to enjoy some peace & quiet while they were gone! Ha! The property was super clean upon arrival and we had everything we needed for our stay. There was plenty of spacious parking for our truck and boat trailer. Also, want to give a shout out to Brooks for answering my panicked questions about storm shelters! During our stay we found ourselves under a tornado watch. I have a little bit of storm anxiety and messaged him to ask about a safe place to hunker down in the event that watch turned into a warning! He was so gracious to ease my mind. We truly enjoyed our stay and the Cookson area. We would definitely look for this property again upon visiting the Tenkiller lake area. Be sure to visit Tahlequah if you find yourself here! Beautiful town with very rich Native American history. Loved my visit to the Cherokee National Heritage Museum.
Loved our stay! Place was pet friendly, the host also had every little detail thought out to make our stay easier! Comfortable for our family of 5.

Great Fishing
The cabin was really nice and accommodating, great for a family of 4. I highly recommend, the host was responsive and answered all questions.
Not tons of close food options so be prepared to cook. I highly recommend fishing on Lake Tenkiller, we hired a guide for two days and caught over 40 Bass.
