Oh what a find. This is so much fun. Outside listening to the frogs right now. The only improvement may be to wash the gable windows upstairs to get an even better view. We will be staying here from now on between Texas and Florida drive. Thanks so much for the incredible vacation.

Property in a pretty, wooded area. Peaceful. The stove could have used a better wipe down and there was dust and cobwebs all over the fan. The inside door handle is broken and the shower caddy fell off in the middle of the night and woke us up. There was a blinking colored porch light on that I couldn't figure out how to turn off and made it hard for me to fall asleep.

Quiet Getaway

Great little getaway spot! Cabin was as pictured. Beds & pillows are comfortable. Didn’t like the fact that the loft area looks over/down into the master bedroom. (Wasn’t a huge concern for us because we didn’t have anyone else with us, but wanted to let other people know). The only “complaints” I have are check out is way earlier than most; 10:00am is a bit unusual & inconvenient… the dirt road leading to the property is extremely rough; tons of potholes. Overall, our stay was near perfect!

I am not one to leave reviews but I thought I would this time. My husband and I have came here 2 years in a row. We were always so pleased with everything. We just went March 2025 amd we were not pleased. The cabin has really gone down in cleanliness. The large arch windows in the bedroom were filthy. The had spider webs everywhere. The place needs painted bad. The worst thing was the road condition. We were in my husbands Denali truck and the potholes still beat us to death. Now I will say that they are working on the main road but not any work done on the whiskey river road. We dreaded leaving to go eat bc the bumps were HORRIBLE !

Thieves do not stay here

Well everything seemed ok on paper with this stay until they had a severe weather issue cause their generators to fail in freezing conditions. We were told to leave in the middle of the night and go find other lodging and that we would be refunded later. 10 days later they will not return a phone call, text, or email. They also wont reply to hotels.com. If you want to be lied to and have your money stolen please stay here

The heat went out both nights and it was close to 40° in the cabin. When telling staff they said they knew and hadn’t got anyone to fix it. Tv didn’t work and called they said they would fix it and never did.

This place is horrible!! I think it is fictitious. My code to the door wouldn’t work. I tried to reach the property manager several times. After no response, I left the property. I have asked my credit card company to investigate the property. Hopefully I will get a credit for the charges.
