About James and Mary Wilhite
We built this cabin in 1996 as our primary residence and now rent it out for others to enjoy. My Wife and I love the peace and quiet of country living and the ability to take a hike in the woods for quiet time.

Perfect Retreat!
We had a wonderful stay at the Mariposa Cabin! Amazing getaway among the trees. James and Mary were the perfect hosts. We will be returning soon! Thank you for sharing your little corner of the world with us!
very relaxing
Very well maintained property, clean,& very relaxing, loved all the windows with views of the woods & trees! Almost like being up in a treehouse! We will visit again! Went to Spring festival in Edom,,& love Blue Moon Gardens!
Quiet retreat, tucked away but good location
Quaint cabin is a great getaway. Private, yet not far from Tyler or Edom. Thanks Mary!
Definitely Going Back!
We rented for a quick couple of days Girls Getaway Trip and it was PERFECT. My girlfriends both have high stress jobs with fire and police 911 and I wanted a break to go get grounded out in nature. We loved it from the first picture and the reality did not disappoint. Being inside with all the windows made it feel like we were up in a treehouse!!
The upstairs bed was comfy, the pull out sofa bed was WAAAAY comfiest than any I've ever slept on and there was just enough room for 3 women to spread out. The best part (besides the awesome teapot with the harmonic train whistle) was simply sitting out on the side porch, listening to the wind in the trees and the late night possum visitor trundling through the leaves. (We are telling everybody that it was a Bigfoot. Shhhhhh)
Edom is a wonderful little artsy town with it's own 'town dog' named Sally, (she likes bacon a lot) and the Blue Moon Garden is a MUST STOP. If you want to stay in the woods but go play around a bit in 'the big city', Canton is just up the road a bit with the First Monday and Tyler is 20 minutes away.
We all loved loved loved it and are planning a trip in the fall.
Charming and clean
we loved the setting in the woods and all of the windows on the property. The bed was so comfortable and the place was very clean. They even left fresh eggs and milk for breakfast! We’re definitely going back soon!
Awesome location for R&R!
Enjoyed this quaint cabin in the woods. Owners are fantastic hosts! Brought us fresh eggs and fruit! Bed was very comfortable and I loved laying in bed at night, with a wall of windows, looking out at the trees. Thank you for a memorable stay!
