Very nice cabin and amenities

We truly enjoyed our stay, worth the expense. The cabin was perfectly decorated and very clean. It had everything you need during a stay, and then some. With WiFi and cable TV in 2 rooms, it is the best. No complaints with this place. Beats an hotel for sure. Wildlife in the area too. Great value.

Peaceful rest in the woods

We loved this place. All the little amenities. We had a fire in the pit. Coffee on the porch. The quality of the pans was excellent. Sometimes you have to scrape together dishes. Used the air fryer one night. Everything you would need.

Clean and lovely decorated cabin

Cabin was very clean and nicely decorated. Loved all the small things in the cabin: qtips, nice plates and cups, and towels. Only complaint was the bed was super firm for our liking. I ended up sleeping on the couch. Otherwise we enioyed our stay.

Thank you for the wonderful review!! I am really sorry you found the mattress to be too firm. I tried to shop for the best in between comfort that would work best for anyone. Unfortunately it’s hard to find the perfect match for everyone! I’m sorry you had to sleep on the couch due to it. I may see about finding an extra padded mattress cover. Was it the mattress on the queen bed or the bunk beds?

Very clean and well-stocked with thoughtful necessities

We appreciated the cleanliness for a pet-friendly cabin. There were no odors or any evidence of pets. We appreciated the thoughtful ammenities (coffee, water in fridge,etc) and the well-cared for kitchenware. Our trip was cut short by storms and power was out, but with windows open, it was cool and comfy inside. Would stay again!

The property was excellent. The only reason I rated a three overall was that having Internet service was critical to my stay – I’m a writer and was planning a four day weekend to get some work done. I needed online resources and weren’t able to get them on my laptop on Saturday and Sunday. I was able to get around that with my phone, but then Sunday night Internet went completely out negating the money I had spent to be able to stream Sunday night football. If I weren’t going there to get work done, it wouldn’t have been an issue, but that was central and critical to my whole weekend. Otherwise, the property was great.

What a fine Wilderness Retreat!!

Looking for a country cabin getaway, we found this adorable cabin nestled on a gentle hillside amongst some nice trees. We found the inside to be as charming as the outside and we'll supplied with everything we needed and more! It was a relatively short way from the things we wanted to do. We loved the rain on the metal roof, coffee on the back porch,Also notable.. a fire pit and a grill out back. The owner was sweet. We look forward to returning!!

Wonderful Vacation!

Angie is a wonderful host and the cabin in like new, has all the kitchen, cooking, and other amenities needed. The area is quiet, the campfire and grill are convenient, and the whole experience is restful and peaceful. Angie responded to all of our questions and needs. The cabin is very close to the water, there is a fishing dock and boat ramp 5 min away, and Prizer point is only takes 10 min get there. If you are looking for a lakeside, noisy family campground, this place is not it. We went out every day and appreciated coming back to peace and quiet. The beds are comfortable and the pillows are wonderful. We had two small dogs and one of the best things is this cabin is pet friendly! We definitely will stay here again. The only problem with this great review is that we hope White Oak Ridge Cabins don't get so popular we can't get in!!!!!

Our Stay

The cabin was beautiful and clean and everything was 5 stars. Everything was very clean and it all looked fairly new. No shortcuts in the construction of the cabin. It was small but everything that you could want in a cabin was available. Note: the mirror in the main bedroom is a bit high. My wife is 5' 2" and could not see herself in it. :) The ad on line was bit misleading. It mentioned 5 acres of woods, but didn't mention there was a cabin next door, nor that there was some kind of small business down the hill in plain view of the cabin, nor that it was close to the road. So, not as secluded as we expected. There were no benches or chairs available around the fire pit, so we did not have a fire and we brought our firewood back home. There were no other guests in the cabin next door until the morning we departed. So, it was a nice peaceful, quiet time. The beds were very comfortable. The cabin is not far from Cadiz, so we spent one day there. Also, the Land Between the Lakes Rec Area is not far either, we enjoyed a day there too. Overall, it was a great visit. We give this cabin our highest recommendation. We would stay there again.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 Oct, 2024
Thank you for the great review! So those cabins do sit on 5 acres together and I believe there are pictures online showing that those 2 cabins have some space apart. The business down the hill is a small storage building & excavator business. We haven’t had any issues with them disturbing our guests in the cabins as they aren’t there very much. The chairs for the fire pits are by the trees close to driveway under the tan cover, we keep them stacked & covered for guests to get out to use as they please. We keep them covered to keep the wildlife from getting them dirty . But we always have them available for guests.

We are a couple from Texas, that wanted to find a wonderful piece of property to retire on and get out of the busy hustle and bustle of hectic high traffic town population where we live, and we absolutely love this small quaint town!!

Why they chose this property

We stayed in the Wilderness Retreat Cabin when we first bought our other property up here in Cadiz and we loved the property and cabins! We also became great friends with the previous owners! We love the small town it is great, peaceful and quiet! We found this town originally by fate and loved it from the absolute beginning!

What makes this property unique

Stunning views and gorgeous woodworking in a quiet wooded retreat.
