The cabin was cozy and in a great location. I loved all the artwork and decor. The host was friendly and available. We enjoyed the fireplace and the firepit. I would note that it only has one bed and a couch as the listing says it sleeps 4.

Cute cabin, tucked back in the woods. There are out buildings nearby but no cabins nearby. Lots of cool artwork and a beautiful stone fireplace. Host checks in to see how you’re doing. Great AC!

Unkept and Need Improvement.

Early check in was allowed. Property was scattered with junk/ trash on both sides of road driving to cabin. Broke down truck parked in road way. Cabin was filthy, yard was over grown and littered with discarded items. Cabin had not been deep cleaned in years. Owner was super nice, but obviously unable to maintain upkeep. Cabin skirting was lying on the ground, so any critter/ animal could come in. Light fixtures were covered with dust and cob webs. Mice were running from room to room. Basically expected a lot more from the pictures. Not what I expected for the amount paid. Sadly, will not be staying at this location, again.
Work need on the exterior.
Skirting not secured to prevent unwanted visitors.
View from the porch. Junk truck parked in road.
Trash under the porch.

No communication at all. Other people were there when I got there.

As a woman it’s scary to get to your VRBO rental and have 2 men come out saying they were renting it and staying there. I never got a phone number from the owner and ended up getting it from the guy who was already unpacking there. The door was unlocked as well according to those people. They called the owner and told them they were in the wrong cabin so they left, but i don’t know what they could have added or left in the place or if they even lied. Lots of dust everywhere and not clean in terms of dusting. The shower curtain had a lot of black mold on it. Very beautiful bedroom surrounded by windows and was amazing to wake up surrounded by nature and trees. The drive up was weird considering other people live around the area and leave their garbage out. I was just uncomfortable and uneasy and wish I had contact with the host. I even texted the number after our stay to let them know I started a load of towels in the laundry for them and got no response. Overall liked staying here, just not worth the price and felt a little unsafe.

We were only in town for a short time attending an event in Makanda. We decided to stay at the cabin on the hill and were not disappointed! Tom is a fantastic host with great communication. It was everything we expected and we would highly recommend to anyone.

If you like the movie Hoarders...this place is for you

Where do I start!! To get to this cabin you drive through roughly a half mile of pure filth. From random trash to store manicanes, he has it all. So much that you have to squeeze your vehicle through the Roadway. Once you enter, you are greeted with only 1 bed, no sofa sleeper as promised. So beware..it only sleeps 2 not 4. If you can get passed this, pay no attention to the 3 inch thick filth that covers every inch of the cabin. It is apparent the pictures taken were the last time it has been cleaned. We expressed our concerns to Tom, and he told us we would get a full refund so we left. Do not believe Tom, he is shady and lies. We still have not gotten a refund because we did not wqnt to stay with bugs- filth- hoardinf- and naked manicanes. We have plenty of pictures of you need to see them. roqdway. road, barely fitting.
