Anniversary Getaway

My wife and I stayed here to celebrate our 20 year anniversary. We wanted something that wasn’t a tourist trap but close enough to some stuff and this fit the bill. We loved everything about our stay here and would 100% stay here again. Very clean and comfortable. This was a peaceful oasis that we needed! Host was very friendly and attentive.

Off the grid, but not!

Loved our stay at your container cabin! The rental had literally everything we could want, and a beautiful setting to boot! The weather didn't allow us to enjoy the fire pit or hot tub until the last night, but we thoroughly enjoyed them then! We loved having the day to hike and relaxing with some TV and games at night. Shower worked great. Washer and dryer also very convenient. Very impressed with all this container had to offer. Maybe we'll be back some weekend in the future! Thank you for hosting!

Can’t contain my praise for the container den!

What a delightful abode! This cozy, clean, and modern spot is perfect for a secluded weekend getaway. With a hot tub, grill, fire pit, and a breathtaking view, you would be perfectly content staying put for the duration of the stay. But local spots (Daniel Boone Coffee Shop, for example) & a quick drive to the gorge & walking trails make it worth it to venture out. Cannot recommend this spot enough!
