This cabin was fabulous! Loved the quiet peaceful setting! Watching the deer in the morning on the front porch swing drinking coffee was serene! Cathie gave superb directions to the Cabin in the woods where Google would have failed us. Will definitely be back here next time we come to visit our friends. I cannot explain how much we enjoyed our stay! Loved the story behind the cabin and loved the guide that was provided! Thanks Cathie and Doug, this is a top notch place and value priced!
Second stay at this quaint and cozy cabin, we plan to celebrate as many anniversaries as we can at this place. Enjoyed the friendly visit with the old dog and wonderful relaxing nights on the porch. Thank you!

Thank you for staying at Bob’s cabin again. You guys are great guests and welcome anytime!
The property is pet friendly and our dog loved all the squirrels lol. It is a very cozy cabin with an awesome deck. We got visited by a few deer. I imagine in summer while trees are thick in bloom lake might be hard to see but in the spring a great view of Tenkiller. The Host was great answered my questions and check in was so easy. Perfect for a romantic get away or even just sitting enjoying the view and quiet. Was just what my wife needed. Thanks
It was rustic, but nice. House was very well stocked with anything you might need. The cabin was very quiet and secluded. Very close to the lake and the town of Cookson. We will stay there again.
Cabin was beautiful. Spacious and had all the amenities. Very peaceful and quiet. Will stay there again.

Great guest! Thank you for choosing the cabin. Welcome back any time.
PS. Overall rating below should be 5. Called VRBO and they said it was stilll a 5/5. ??
Location was so pretty and quiet. The cabin was great and offered everything we needed. We were impressed with the cleanliness. Enjoyed watching hummingbirds and our morning visits with Tiki, one of the sweetest dogs I've ever met. I'd definitely recommend to anyone needing a break!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time relaxing in Bob’s Cabin. It was a very enjoyable vacation, the atmosphere was cozy and peaceful with very hospitable hosts.

Thank you for your comments here. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay at the cabin and hope you will consider us again in the future.
This was a great cabin to stay in. Very rustic and in a nice location. The whole process went very well from check in to leaving. I would recommend this cabin
This was a very quiet little cabin in the wood comfort and lots of history about this cabin itself. Great opportunity to sit in porch and watch the birds and animals whole relaxing. Highly recommend for a couples retreat
Everything was provided for a quiet, relaxing stay. Surrounded by nature in a cozy cabin. My husband and I are retired and we’re thrilled with the pricing and that it was pet friendly.
