Nice little cabin. Great hosts.

Pretty convenient to everything but still far enough away to feel like you’re getting away. It does sit near the road and some trucks are loud when passing, but not bad. We could have used an AC during the day, but there wasn’t one. I presume they use a window unit once it heats up more. The heater was nice at night. Overall, great price, nice cabin, and very communicative hosts.

Hidden Gem! We love it!

We had an amazing stay at the cozy cabin. We came to Cave Run Lake to do some fishing and very much enjoyed ourselves. The cabin is so welcoming and we loved the country decor. My favorite thing was relaxing on the front porch swing while drinking coffee.The bed was very comfy with plenty of pillows. We loved how many amenities they stocked! There were more than enough towels and extra blankets for cold nights. Also, we loved the coffee maker and that she stocked the kitchen with plenty of pods and creamer.If you forgot something, there is a Dollar General right down the road for food and whatever else you need.I loved that there was a large area for my dog to run in the back. Water pressure is phenominal. There was a very nice fire pit but we couldn't use it due to the rain. It looked really nice and I hope to use it next time we visit.

Night away after our wedding

We wanted a single night get away after our wedding at Sunset Ridge nearby, and this cabin was exactly what we were looking for. Small, affordable, private, and spotless. The entire process from beginning to end was great, and the host was a good communicator. 2 reasons it didn't get a 5-star... The tv remote was missing so we couldn't use the tv at all. And the Keurig pot did not work. The host was quick to remedy these issues; however we were only there for 1 night and left first thing the next morning as the lack of coffee was frustrating. Would still recommend, as this was a great looking cabin for a couple!

Absolutely Amazing!

Our stay was supposed to be a couples trip but we had to take the kids due to no babysitter. The host made sure we had everything we needed. They were extremely nice to us and our children. It's greatly appreciated ❤️ I definitely recommend this place for anyone wanting to get away. It was so nice and peaceful!

We really enjoyed our stay and found the cabin to be clean and cozy. We made use of the provided firewood and got in a lot of great hikes and a trip to the lake in short driving distance.

Geat getaway

It was a beautiful property and home. We absolutely loved it. The amount of stars you could see from the patio was our favorite. I definitely would recommend it to anyone that would love a getaway. The property owners were communicating the entire time even when the website was down and always helpful.

All around perfect place

A quiet little den, perfect for trips away from the city. The owners are very kind and welcoming, and are right next door should you need anything. Plenty of amenities, as well as snacks, cookware, and personal hygiene products free to use. Plenty of hiking trails and fishing spots nearby as well. Overall a wonderful place for anyone looking for a quiet, peaceful place to stay!

Lovely little cabin! Perfect for just the two of us.

The address was incorrect but the pictures from the site were a huge help in finding it. The host did contact me and mentioned the address wasn't accurate and he sent me the correct address We had already found it by that time. I love the area and the peaceful countryside.
