Excellent thought put into this cabin! Literally has everything you need, from nearby restaurant menus to campfire picks to help toast your marshmallows. Not to mention the amazing scenery out to the forest and creek, magnificent stay!
This was one of the best vacation rentals we have ever stayed in. The owners thought of everything. The cabin was beautifully furnished. The location was close to town but far enough away to be private.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review. It’s always our goal to make your stay here the cleanest and coziest you have ever experienced.
Hosts were prompt to respond and everything was clean, well stocked, and just an overall relaxing experience. Loved the ladder to the bedroom and the creek behind. Would easily stay again!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are fanatical about cleaning, so we love to see positive comments about it. 😊
It was a great place to stay. We loved the creek in the backyard and the area. Was quiet and easy to find with all of the signs and right next to the Coke Oven Historic Park. Overall, a great experience.

Thank you for the great review. Happy that the signs made us easy to find. 😊
This place is great. The entire process from booking to check out was easy and clear. The property itself is a little slice of awesome Cumberland Plateau/Valley forest. I definitely recommend this place!

Thank you for the review and feedback. We try to make the process and stress free as possible. 😊
The only negative thing I could possibly say what the fact that I had to climb up a ladder to get to bed. The cabin was a great size for 2 people, very cozy, and quiet. We may even make staying there a tradition. It was the perfect weekend trip close to home.

Thank you for great review. We aim for cozy and quiet. (If you make it a tradition, you can always use the sleeper sofa downstairs.) 😀
This was a great location for doing day trips to several nearby parks etc. The owners put a lot of thought into little details to make this a great place to stay. Creek right behind the cabin, fireflies, fire pit, WiFi, tv, cold water bottles on the fridge, coffee pods, etc. made this a great stay. Would definitely stay again if we’re in the area.

Thank you so much! “Clean as a whistle” is music to our ears because we are fanatical about cleaning and upkeep of these cabins. Love knowing that we are meeting guest expectations. 😊
This cabin was adorable!!! It was well appointed and not a single detail has been overlooked. It’s absolutely spotless. It is very comfortable. We loved the little deck on the back. The cabin is tucked away in a beautiful little area. We felt so safe at the cabin. The rain shower head in the bathroom was wonderful and there is great water pressure. There were more than enough towels, too. That was nice. We found little treats and a couple of bottles of water in the fridge. So many nice touches. I would highly recommend these darling cabins.

What a wonderful, detailed review! We try hard to make our cabins the cleanest you will ever stay in, and we pay attention to the details. Thank you for letting us know what we are doing right. 😊
I loved this property. It is so cute, comfy and well maintained. I visit my son an dhis family a couple of times a year and like to have my own space for sleeping this worked out so nice and my grandaughters stayed with me a couple nights. They now want a little house...LOL! Loved being able to walk down to the Coke Ovens and the fact that it is on a dead end street with no traffic it is really quiet and peaceful. You an hear the creek running over the rocks! Perfect!!! Thank you
