We had a wonderful time staying at Yore Cottage! The location is very convenient to Salt Fork State Park, but the property is so beautiful, peaceful, and private that it is a perfect getaway and you may not want to leave at all. Very comfortable, and all the basic necessities are provided. Would definitely stay here again!

We loved this property! My husband and I brought our two young boys and it was perfect for us. The property was so peaceful that we spent most of the weekend on property, fishing in the pond, exploring, and enjoying the sun room and basement. It was clean on arrival and has such a cozy feel. Check in was easy and Tim had great communication to provide instruction and even notice that we could check in a little early. We loved it here!

Great Place

Cabin was as described in listing. We really enjoyed this quiet setting. Could hear the sounds of nature. Nice and dark at night so could see the stars. Very nice fire pit and even included free firewood. Loved the screened deck. Owners quick to answer questions.

Serene and private

My brother and I have been doing an annual camping trip for years, and this may be our annual spot now! Clean, well-kept, and a fishing pond steps from our door! When we realized the sleeper sofa had no linens, Tim was immediately responsive and helped solve the issue. Loved the quiet and privacy, the Adirondack chairs, and firepit and stock of firewood. We'll be back.

Excellent Long Weekend Getaway

The location of the cabin is amazing. Very peaceful. The screened in porch was the best. In the early morning it was the birds chirping and the frogs croaking along with the most beautiful sunrise glistening off of the pond. The cabin is laid out perfectly and is decorated very nicely. I wish I owned the property. It is somewhere that I would love to go every Friday after work to spend the entire weekend. We can't wait to go back in the fall. Thank you Tim for a very relaxing weekend.

Idyllic setting

There are no words to describe the natural beauty of this setting, in the woods, on a pond in the heart of nature. The cabin and grounds are meticulously kept and stocked with everything you might need. The fire pit was already filled with kindling and there was plenty of firewood provided. The grill came equipped with coals and kindling. It was magical - we look forward to returning.

Yore Cottage is now our favorite cottage. The stay was peaceful and beautiful. The cottage is well taken care of and immaculate. The screened porch was great. While there is a tv in the living area, we never turned it on. This cottage is like staying in a woodland park.
Cabin entryway. Motion sensor lights for the porch and driveway were perfect for our late night arrival.
The owners provided firewood and kindling for an easy to light fire.

Perfect get away

This little cottage in the woods is a gem. Simple, but had most everything we needed. GREAT a/c ( it was one of those very hot weeks),and a pond with fish! The screen porch was nice at night when it cooled off and the fan helped tremendously! Bed was super comfy, and we had a relaxing time.
Caught and then returned!  It was fun!

Anniversary get away and hunting for BigFoot

Very nice smaller cabin set in a nice private area. Within minutes to SaltFork lodge and hiking trails. Loved the screened room to just sit and relax. Owner left us a gift celebrating our anniversary. Would definitely recommend for a couple looking for some relaxing our outdoor activities. Thanks for sharing your place with us!

Secluded yet accessible

Our stay was relaxing and carefree. While we spent the majority of our stay outside exploring and sitting around the campfire, the inside of the cottage was clean, comfortable perfectly set up. Absolutely no complaints and we plan to stay there again!

About the host

Hosted by Tim Newport

Host profile image
My wife and I are in our 50s we run the vrbo on our own and with pride provide all maintenance and cleaning. We always welcome suggestions to make your stay the best we can.

Why they chose this property

Our family has vacationed at the Salt Fork state park for 30+ years.
Although we enjoy the amenities of the park lodging options, we always longed for a place of our own with more solitude than the park accommodation and other nearby cluster cabins could provide.
We are very proud of our renovated country cottage and know you will find as much enjoyment in the accommodations as we do.

What makes this property unique

Many competing rentals have several to a dozen properties and not much privacy, we have one very private cottage on a 15-acre wooded property with stocked fishing pond.
We do not charge a cleaning fee or tax.
