We booked pretty last minute and stayed here for one night before we picked up our new dachshund puppy. We didn’t get in until 2am after work and driving from Ga and everything was super easy to navigate! We also were able to get late checkout. Everything was clean and comfortable! We enjoyed the peace and quiet!

Great quiet getaway

Loved our few days here in this quiet cabin feeling one with nature and away from all the hustle and bustle. In its simplicity, the amenities were great. The super comfy bed, nice little leather sofa, plush linens, and well equiped kitchen. It all felt very special and we hope to one day return again.

Simple; secluded; private

A quiet and convenient place to stay for a nearby event. Furnishings are simple but certainly adequate for one or two persons. Bed is comfortable. Live Oak is very close by if you need a town. Cooking is limited to a hot plate or pizza oven, so would have liked to have a microwave. Altogether a nice place and an enjoyable stay. Thanks.

Amazing property!

We really enjoyed this property! It was so serene and quiet. The hosts were super helpful with things to do in the area but we truly felt like everything we needed was right there and we didn’t need to go far! The fire pit was relaxing and the lights outside were so cool! We played games and watched movies. I think our only gripe was that the AC pointed at us while on the couch and it got kind of chilly (which isn’t a bad problem to have in the summer heat!). Overall a wonderful stay and would definitely go back again. Thank you for having us!

Great getaway with soft bed

Loved this area, the property, and the loft. I wish there'd been screens so I could let the fresh air flow instead of using the wall unit and the bed was very soft so not great for bad backs. But otherwise, the place was very clean, cozy, and we could see all the stars in the sky!
