This is an authentic log cottage from the 1940s with lots of pictures of the neighborhood from earlier times. It’s located right on a bubbling branch of the Little Pigeon river. It is just on the edge of town, very convenient location. The screened in porch, rocking chairs and hot tub are worth the whole stay. Adequate bed, bath, and kitchen facilities, definitely everything you need. The cabin could use a few ‘touch ups’ after a busy summer. The beds are very comfortable, however they are very tall beds and my short elderly sister wasn’t able to get in to either one, also afraid of falling out if I were able to hoist her in. ( she slept in a recliner.) I really enjoyed our stay. The bear in the back yard a real plusI would have appreciated brighter lights in the living area, and it is close enough to the parkway that even the wonderful stream didn’t always drown out the roar of groups of motorbikes going by.Communication with Aunt Bugs was great. I would stay here again.

Peaceful Retreat

This cottage was a find! Super clean, well equipped with all the necessities and comfortable beds. There’s a beautiful River/creek directly behind the cabin and it was just so peaceful hearing the water flow. Walking distance to restaurants. Plenty activities for young and old. We will definitely be back.

We had a good time. The rain and flooding slowed us down a bit so we spent more time at the cabin then we planned on doing but still had a relaxing, fun time.
