Incredible Stay in the Mountains!

We came up to Spencer for our friends who opened up The Ugly Mug Bar and Grill in Spencer, TN. The Ugly Mug is only about 10-15 minutes away from the cabin. Food at The Mug was delicious, so if you need a spot to eat close by, this is the place! The property is perfect and peaceful, it was so nice to sit out on the porch and relax in the rocking chairs just listening to the trees in the wind. Coming from Miami, we don't get that at all. We also loved how each side of the porch had a different way to sit and relax, from the swing to the couch to the rocking chairs. And each side had a different view. Our granddaughter loved to swing with her Papa Joe and look for Minnie Mouse in the woods, it was so cute. They have everything that you would need and the couch is super relaxing! The beds are very comfy and the rooms are fairly dark in the mornings, which I love. We even got to use the fire place, that was a treat for us Miami folks. The property is very well kept and the owners are very quick to reply if you need anything. I can't say enough about this property, it was everything that our family needed for our vacation and more. We hope to be back here again.

Fantastic experience!

Our cabin was just perfect - clean, comfortable, well-equipped. The property is beautiful. We love to go to the mountains every fall to hike, and there is a mile+ hike to a beautiful overlook site on the property. We were close to Rock Island State Park, Savage Gulf State Park, and Fall Creek Falls, so there were lots of options for hiking and beautiful scenery. The hosts were fantastic, available for any issues that arose (the gate malfunctioned one day). Highly recommend this property!

Perfect Respite

Fantastic stay - cabin was exactly as described and pictured, immaculately clean, and very easy to find. Hosts were top-notch hospitable and have done an amazing job tailoring their property to create a wonderful experience. The property is far enough out to get away from light and noise pollution, enjoy watching the stars from the fire pit! Close drive to Fall Creek Falls. Be sure to stop at Publix in Cookeville on your way in to stock up so you can fully enjoy a time of rest and respite.

Beautiful cabin in the woods

The property is absolutely amazing! It sits on private land that has tons of trails to hike on. The host gave us a private tour on his ATV of the trails and how he built the property. They communicated very quickly with us and always making sure we had what we needed. They even helped us start our fire pit since we couldn't get it started ourselves and the wood was wet from a small rain shower. The cabin was perfect with everything we needed. The beds were amazingly soft and comfortable. We would recommend this cabin to anyone looking to stay in the Fall Creek Falls state park area. Perfectly wonderful cabin in the woods!

Beautiful Tennessee Cabin in Nature

My husband, 5 month old baby and I had a wonderful time in the cabin and exploring the property. It was a perfect weekend getaway and we absolutely loved the nature cabin vibe. It was very clean and cozy. We hiked to the lookout and the view is incredible! I would recommend planning a day to stay to explore the property. The main bed is very comfy and we were able to set up our baby’s pack and play in the same room. The bathtub was definitely nice after a long day of hiking. If it wasn’t so rainy we would’ve loved to use the fire pit. Bill and Erin were responsive and very kind! They provided a lot of information ahead of time so finding the location and checking in was very easy. We are for sure going to return when we plan another trip up to Tennessee!

We certainty surprised our friends with the beautiful cabin. Kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms were stocked with everything we needed.

We can’t say enough about this property & the hosts. It is super clean, well-appointed, and inviting. Bed & furniture was comfortable, good lighting throughout, strong WiFi & the kitchen had everything needed. Appliances are new & the hosts did a fantastic job putting the house & property together. We had the pleasure of meeting hosts Bill & Erin and pride in their property is apparent & well-deserved. Location is remote but close enough to the state park & waterfalls. If you’re looking for a place to kick back, relax & not worry about much of anything, this property is it! We also appreciated that the property & house weren’t surrounded by cameras like many other VRBO locations. Thanks to our hosts for helping to make our 3-day get-away perfect.

Remarkable Retreat!!

Wonderful cabin in a great location with all of the amenities you could possibly need. Very well kept and updated as well as very clean. This was the cleanest rental we have ever stayed in! Fire pits are always a must for us and this one was awesome and spacious with a well lit path leading to it with comfortable seating as well. The owners Bill and Erin were very friendly and gracious hosts offering to give us a tour of the beautiful property. The one mile hiking trail through the woods to the deck that overlooks the mountains is easy with gentle slopes and very well worth the walk. Gorgeous view!! We will definitely be making a return visit in the near future. Thank you Bill and Erin for sharing such a wonderful place. Our stay was relaxing and much needed.

The cabin had everything we needed and it was close proximity to several state parks which were beautiful! Erin and Bill treated us as if we were old friends. We felt extremely welcomed! They took us on a couple of UTV rides to familiarize us with the property and to allow us to experience a beautiful sunset!! One day, we never left the property and were able to hike 4 miles just walking on their trails! This was one of the most relaxing yet adventurous vacations we have had. I almost forget, we were able to be the first to try out their new and beautiful firepit! We do hope that we will be able to visit again sometime! I highly recommend this rental!!!
