It was a pleasure meeting you guys and so happy you enjoyed your relaxing time here at the fort :)
The boyfriend and i spent the weekend here with our 2 dogs. It was very peaceful and quiet. The host was very accommodating and the place was clean. Its a cute cabin. We very much enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back! There were also a lot of dogs from the neighborhood that were very friendly. They do have a cat sanctuary as well so there are a lot of friendly cats around.
This place was exactly what we needed. A plave to sleep, stay cool and shower at night while we boat and fish during the day. Sonnie was so sweet and friendly and the cabin was clean.

I so enjoyed seeing you both again and HAPPY you had fun :)
Thank you for your repeat visit as it is
always fun for us to catch up with our family of guests so blessed to help others destress and turn off the world for a bit
We had a great time celebrating my boyfriends birthday. Sunnie is a wonderful host and went above and beyond making our visit comfortable and relaxing. We loved fishing and exploring. Will definitely be back!
I highly recommend staying here! The property was adorable and just as listed! Sunnie was amazing and super helpful! It was 94 degrees outside but we stayed cool inside. AC works great! We are already planning on coming back when it's cooler to take advantage of the outside activities available at this location. Location is close to Mammoth Caves NP and Abraham Lincoln Birthplace NP.

Oh thank you Candra!
I am so happy you guys had fun and loved the fort!
So looking forward to your return when not so hot so you can enjoy the nature and amenities here.
Nice little place to stay for the night. Hostess Sunny was very sweet. The bathroom accommodations were a bit different, but all in all, everything was nice.
My host was just as wonderful as her property. Guys the pics dont do it justice. I had the very best experience i could of wished for. She made me feel at home. Everything you could possibly need was right there, from firewood to internet. We enjoyed an evening by the pond.Fished right off the deck. Then snuggled up by a fire and enjoyed the stars. Saw a momma deer and 2 babies in the yard. Finished the night off with a movie, a complimentary popcorn and chamomile hot tea. The property was very clean and neat. I will be going back and referring family and friends.

So looking forward to seeing you and yours again! Happy you are not so far away for an easy get away :)
Everything went great! There are a lot of cool features to the property. Check in was a breeze and Sunnie was so so nice and helpful. We had my fiancé’s birthday party here and she made sure we had everything we needed and even put up a few birthday decorations before we arrived! There are a few cats, but we stayed outside the majority of the time and they never bothered us. Our stay was lovely, and we will definitely be returning in the future.

It was lovely to meet you guys and to start our reopening this season with a fun party!
We look forward to seeing you and your friends again 💕
Was allowed to check in day early, quiet area, clean place with good amenities. Sonny was a great hostess and very friendly, neighborhood has great people. Would definitely stay here. Thank you for a great time.
We loved everything about this place, Sunnie was an absolutely wonderful host and the it’s a great spot to get out of town and relax. Our dog also loved it, and was especially happy to meet Spanky, the local doggie bon vivant. We couldn’t have enjoyed it more and plan to be back asap!

Nice cabin that has everything you need for a great weekend away.
We enjoyed the fishing at the pond that was close to the cabin.
Our host made us feel welcome!
Sunnie was great! Property was gorgeous! It was so peaceful to get away and relax. We had 2 dogs with us and the cats were not an issue. It was one of our best vacations ever. We loved the entire property and will be back very soon. Thank you Sunnie for opening up this fabulous cabin and property to us.
