Cabin #9 - Mattie Moo

At first glance, you might think this name belonged to a pet cow — but quite the opposite. Mattie Moo was a tiny Pomeranian and, without question, Buck's favorite companion. Small in size but bursting with personality and boundless energy, she lived life to the fullest and captured the hearts of everyone she met.
Though she has crossed the rainbow bridge, Mattie Moo remains very much alive in our memories. Her playful spirit, loyal companionship, and joyful presence left paw prints that will never fade.
To honor the love and happiness she brought into our lives, we saved something truly special — CABIN #9 is lovingly dedicated to our sweet little MATTIE MOO. This cozy retreat celebrates her spirited nature and the warmth she shared so freely.
Her territory may be marked for the last time, but her legacy of love lives on here. May your stay in MATTIE MOO — Cabin #9 be filled with the same comfort, joy, and lighthearted energy that made her so unforgettable.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a fireplace and a coffee maker.

Would recommend

The weekend we visited was very misty and rainy. You couldn’t see 10 yards in front of you in the park, but we weren’t disappointed because we had a cozy cabin to enjoy! Relaxing in the hot tub after a long hike surrounded by the mountain mist with such a wonderful experiences. Can was clean and cozy and well stocked with essentials like grilling tools and pans. Breakfast at the Lodge was lovely. Excellent service from the staff!

We loved our stay

We had a great time, loved the location and the place. We also enjoyed the carpenter bees who buzzed around us throughout the day in the hot tub (although I expect there will be some people who might complain). I think the only complaint we would have, which isn't dealing with the location, but was that the stack of firewood we received seems to have been very damp and would not burn well. Overall, we would come back again.

Not the cleanest

The cabin was nice but not the cleanest. Went to sit on the couch when we first got there and the couch was covered with crumbs. There were also cob webs on the bathroom walls, behind the tv and above the shower that were reachable.

Satisfactory

Nice visit, rear window blinds will not close. Clean up crew needs to at least blow off both front and rear porches. Front door needs cleaning or painting.

Our stay at Mattie Moo

The place was very clean and inviting. Stocked with everything we needed. I was very thankful we didn't see any spiders, but being in January, that probably helped. We did, however, hear squirrels (or mice?) scurrying in the walls at night. Maybe bring a noise-maker to drown that out if it makes you squeamish. Overall, it was a very relaxing stay, and we would love to come back some day.

Loved Mattie Moo.

We originally rented at another location, but felt it wouldn't meet our needs when we arrived. Hallie was very accommodating and helped us get a cabin which was much more suitable to our needs. Everything was great and we are never disappointed at Lydia Cabin rentals. Its been a while since we come here and the 24 hour service is great. Highly recommend. Clean quiet cabin close to everything the area has to offer. We are regulars and will return. Thanks for everything!

Two night stay at Mattie Moo!

We had the most wonderful time there, everything we needed was there, even 2 bath robes. We absolutely loved the hot tub, which is where we spent most of our time. A very large owl could be seen from our back porch only 15 feet away, and seeing him gave us great joy. We brought our food with us because we knew thunderstorms were coming and we felt very secure and played cards during the worst part of the storms. The power only flickered once! We did I move the rockers from the front porch to the back because those were more comfy than the wire ones, and yes ,we moved them back to the front before we left! We loved those wooden rockers! We needed that time! So Thank you so much! The besties (mother & daughter) aka…Ethal & Lucy will definitely be back, we love the woods!

Mice

We come to Lydia every year for our anniversary and we love it but every time at each cabin we always have mice droppings in the cabinets and in the bottom of the stove. We understand its the country but it makes us feel that it's not being addressed and the cabins aren't being cleaned as good as they should be. We see mouse traps but none being used. We truly love Lydia Mountain just disappointed .

Love the high standard set by and performed by the staff at the Lodge/Guest Services.

However, while we really enjoyed the cabin, the cleanliness/condition and provisioning of the Mattie Moo cabin did not meet those high standards set by the lodge/staff. Here is a list of the more troubling issues we encountered: Squirrel fight/extreme midnight-early morning activity which sounded like they were in walls. Woke & kept us up. The outside facia has significant damage which looked like squirrels chewed away wood to access entry. TV - no cable or satellite as stated in description and going out when streaming. These TLC flat screens are well known within the tech world to have very weak processors which cause loss of processing, pixel display interruption and at times complete loss of video/audio. Had too reset programing for multiple streaming channels on multiple times, very frustrating. We reporting issue to front desk was told it was the wind blowing the lines. This happened even when wind was not blowing. No video player as stated in description Kitchen not stocked with enough dishes, flatware, cookware, etc. missing basic utensils such as measuring cups and spoons. Had to ask for more flatware Spider webs in shower Floors needed cleaning. Dirt and dust and dead roaches next to bed. Refrigerator light out, had to order new light as one for the refrigerator was not in maintenance. Microwave light out (replaced by maintenance) Two ceiling lights out Had to put blanket over crack in back door as it would not sufficiently shut and light could be seen (and obviously cold draft and wind) between door and jam. No batteries in the flashlight Wands missing from window shades (maintenance kindly replaced) Kitchen sink faucet extremely loose. Not enough dishwashing pods for dishwasher. Not enough chairs in living area for guests to set. Coach was nice but need additional seating in living area. PS: maintenance was extremely responsive and created an great customer experience. We are not completely discouraged and will probably seek rental but with a larger cabin next time. Really enjoyed the wood burning fireplace but would suggest glass doors the open and close be considered so the heat doesn't escape during the night after the fire goes out.
