About this property
Faye's Retreat
Private cabin that sits extremely close to Little River Canyon at only 3 miles. While sitting only 4.7 miles away from DeSoto State Park making this cabin right in the middle of the areas most popular must see destinations. This cabin has two separate bedrooms and each has a queen sized bed . One upstairs and one downstairs. A custom very unique walk in shower. Very comfy living room area with a fire place and many overhead lighting options for the perfect mood. The upstairs sitting area is perfect for the morning coffee drinker or book reading while staring out the large open windows. The rear porch is the favorite for anyone who visits. Its extremely private, has a large hot tub, a nice sitting area or you can explore the wilderness right outside the back door. The cabin will make you feel as your all by yourself yet your less than 8 minutes to town. We also have great phone and internet service. The kids and adults both will enjoy the moments around the unique fire pit, It offers huge oversized boulders that many friends can sit around for late night fun and marsh mellows. The cabin is completely surrounded by thick trees and sits on a dense private wooded 5 acre lot. We also keep a charcoal grill at the back porch for those that like to grill out. We are about a 17 minute drive to Weiss lake, or a 10 minute drive to Fort Payne water reservoir and within 20 minutes Dekalb County Lake. So bring those kayaks and boats along with you for some great fishing.
We are very communicative and will happily guide you to the areas best attractions whether it be Restaurants, Fishing, Hiking, Malls and so on. We love to help.

Our stay was absolutely amazing! The cabin was clean, cozy and so peaceful! Can't wait for our next trip back! Thank you so much for a much needed getaway!
My husband and I spent my 60th birthday in this cabin and it was wonderful! Very private and cozy and close to downtown Ft Payne. The owner is very communicative and friendly and his mom serves the best ice cream right down the road. Absolutely loved our time in this rustic cabin!
It was exactly what we hoped it would be... perfect for a quick anniversary getaway. The cabin was charming, well equipped, clean and well maintained. The property was peaceful and private. My only regret is that I didn't make arrangements to be off work longer, or I would have taken advantage of the host's offer to add more nights to our stay.
This was probably one of the cleanest cabins I have ever rented, and i've rented more than a few! Matt, the owner was very responsive and courteous.The surrounding area is beautiful. I enjoyed morning walks down to a beautiful creek a short distance away.In the evenings, we enjoyed the hot tub, plus fires around the fire circle.There was even wood provided! Can't wait for my next trip back here.

This property was exactly what we needed for a restful weekend in a quiet beautiful area. Definitely will book again.
We absolutely loved this little cabin. It was very easy to find and convenient to our activities. The cabin was small but well designed for space. We look forward to our next visit!
