Just as described and the perfect location for our family reunion. We rented two of the cabins, the three bedroom and the tiny cabin, and it worked out great. Love the location and the seclusion in the woods. Great stay - thank you!
We had a wonderful experience from start to finish. The space was extremely comfortable, making it easy to relax and unwind. The setting was peaceful and quiet, yet there was no shortage of things to do. What truly made the stay exceptional was the host’s graciousness and hospitality. Bill and Karen were warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making sure we had everything we needed. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, quiet retreat with plenty of activities and an outstanding host.

Nice, quiet setting with beautiful deer. My kids enjoyed swimming in the private lake and getting to feed the deer. My husband enjoyed picking blueberries.
Property was private and beautiful! Cabin had everything and was very clean!

Jaclyn: Thanks for the great 5 star review! Glad you enjoyed your stay. Made some good memories with the kids and the deer and beach. Come back when you have time.
We wanted to get away from the city and into nature and boy did we! Words can’t describe how much fun we had exploring the 200 acres of forest! Lakes, ponds, paths, and sooooo many deer! Our son woke up early every morning to feed the deer - when we left, he knew their names….the owners were beyond accommodating!
Great place to stay. Was in Abita Springs for the Fall Fest and chose to stay here. Did not spend much time at the house due to a busy schedule but would definitely come back and highly recommend for a getaway.
The pictures of the cabin do it no justice.the cabin is much nicer than the pictures can describe.great nature trails,boat launch and beach.loved picking blue berries as the birds were chirping at sunrise and loved getting to feed the deer.great price also and Mr.Bill his wife and sister are awesome host.will definitely be back.

Beautiful property to spend a calm weekend away from New Orleans
Our family had a wonderful time picking blueberries and exploring the wooded paths in the "golf cart". We had fun canoeing and cooking smores on the firepit, such a fun relaxing weekend!

Laura and company were ideal guests. They most importantly enjoyed the property and respected our place. They are welcome back anytime.
We went to meet family and celebrate a couple of birthdays. The cabin was perfect. I would recommend this rental to anyone seeking peace and quite away from the city. It was wonderful.

We had a great time! The cabin was adorable and being able to see the deer every morning and evening was awesome! We had fun fishing and riding/walking the numerous trails along the lakes. Great place to relax!

Amanda: Thanks for the 5 star review! We enjoyed meeting you and having the girls help with the deer. You were great guests and left the property very neat and clean. You are welcome back anytime. m Hope to see you again in the future.
Beautiful property with amazing hosts.
One of the best stays we have ever had.
Cabin was clean and well appointed. Grounds were amazing.
Fantastic getaway.
We will go again for sure.
We truly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cabin. We loved seeing the deer each day and have feeding them. The owners were super nice and took our son out to feed the deer, which was a wonderful added touch. This is a great place to stay for access to all of the surrounding areas and having a great place to come back to and relax at the end of the day. Wish we could have stayed even longer.
We truly had the best weekend! So relaxing. Lots to enjoy with the deer, orchard and kayaks. Beautiful cabin. Wonderful hosts!! Can't say enough about how very much we enjoyed ourselves!

Courtney: Thanks for your kind and generous review you left on VRBO. We appreciate your words and hope to see you back again soon.
The cabin was beautiful. The location was close to where we needed to go for our nieces wedding.. the host was exceptional and welcoming. Nice hiking trails, deer farm, and pond for kayaking. Perfect location to unplug and reconnect with family.
Our family group of five loved our week at Sunhillow Farm! The log cabin was so cute and comfortable, well equipped, and nestled in a beautiful setting, surrounded by a blueberry orchard and deer farm. Our hosts Bill and Karen were so friendly and helpful and surprised us with a number of nice treats. We had a wonderful time and can highly recommend Sunhillow Farm.

I have fond memories of Gayle and her family! I was rewarding to us to have met them and hosting them at the property. Here son was the first one who ever knew where the name of the farm, Sunhillow, came from! These are the people we try to reach to come stay with us. Hope to see them again soon!
About the host
Hosted by Bill or Karen Magee
Karen and Bill have been married for 33 years, raising 4 children who have left the nest and the payroll. Bill has retired and they have moved back to the farm to raise chickens, deer and blueberries. We enjoy the outdoors and meeting new guests.
Why they chose this property
I bought this property when I was in college as an original 22 acre property at the end of the road. I added another 18 acres in 1981 and another 350 acres in 1996. After selling some acreage in 1998 we ended up with 220 acres. We met on the property back in 1987 while water skiing. I built the log cabin in the early 80s and converted it to the VRBO unit in 2019.
What makes this property unique
Secluded with no noise, no neighbors and no traffic. You want to get away from it all and enjoy the solitude of nature, this is the place for you. Our chickens provide fresh eggs for your enjoyment while here. You can help us feed the deer if you are here during feeding time. Pick fresh blueberries for your breakfast during the season. In early spring, enjoy the new green growth on the cypress and oak trees and other plants as you walk along the many trails we have. Also in early Spring, watch as the Swallow Tail Kites return from their stay in South America and make their nests on the property. One of the most graceful birds you will ever see soar over the fields and the ponds/lakes. The hummingbirds also return at around the same time. Late April brings the extraordinary display the fireflies put on during their mating season. Literally hundreds of fireflies are found with their glows in sync on certain evenings after dark. Truly an amazing site to see. In mid May through July, the deer are having their fawns which is another exciting time on the farm. From Memorial Day through Labor Day, enjoy the water sports on the waters around the property. Fall brings with it the colors of the cypress and maple trees changing to burn orange and red. As a special treat for those who book stays of 4 nights or more, enjoy a complimentary Blueberry Crostata, Bill's favorite blueberry dessert, topped with Bluebell Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream. It's to die for. Also included is a complimentary bottle of wine of your choice. Let us know if you like white or red.
