About this property

Remodeled Cook Forest Cabin

Enjoy this newly renovated 100-year-old log cabin in the heart of Cook Forest. With the ability to sleep 6 and a full bathroom, this is a gem just minutes away from all the best hiking + river activities. The new kitchen makes "roughing it" a little more manageable, while the wrap-around porch, WiFi, and private yard make it easy to stay on the property if you don't feel like going out. Come enjoy our little family getaway spot with yours.

The original log cabin features a one-wall kitchen, dining table, sleeper couch, wood-burning fireplace, 50" TV, a nook with a small rocking chair, and a loft with 2 full-size beds underneath and 2 full mattresses in the loft. A suite built off of the main room includes a full bathroom and a queen-size bed, with a door to the backyard.

Red Fox Cabin sits right on Rt 36, the main road through Cook Forest. Located in the center of Cook Forest, you don't have to travel far to enjoy the trails, river, sights, and more. Being situated close to the road might not be the most idyllic setting, but is extremely convenient, and our modern design and comforts will make your stay a memorable one!

Weekend Getaway

My kids and I loved staying in the cabin for a long weekend! We had a blast when we were at the cabin and when we were out in the community. I'm hoping to make this an annual trip!

We had an amazing time and the cabin was amazing.had all the amenities and is in great condition. The historical background for the cabin is very cool. The location is perfect too anywhere from a 2 minute -20 minute drive to all the popular locations. Also the amount of deer we saw daily from our own price was insane. I will definitely be back with my family and would recommend to anyone

We really enjoyed our stay! The cabin was clean and welcoming. The only issues we had were the proximity to the main road and the AC working a little too well. The units were putting out cold air even after we turned them off. The location is extremely convenient but we’re hoping for a more secluded arrangement.

Perfect cabin

The cabin was in a great central location to Cook Forest, shops, and places to eat. It was clean and cozy with the most comfortable beds. We loved to spend time on the porch reading, talking, playing games. We would definitely recommend this property to others, and we hope to come back soon!

Stay at Red Fox

My family and I had a wonderful time during the weekend we stayed. The cabin was the perfect blend of rustic and modern and had everything we needed for our stay. If you’re looking for a cabin that is close to Cook Forest State Park this is perfect. Would highly recommended! Thank you Doug + Steph for being such wonderful hosts.

Great cabin

Overall, this met all of our needs and then some. We loved the renovated cabin and the convenient location. We didn’t love how loud it was with the traffic zooming by, but it didn’t bother us enough to affect our stay. Our kids enjoyed the games provided and the cozy beds. We were a bit fearful of the loft area as there is a spot where the kids could fall over if they weren’t being careful. However, we were able to put the ladder up so they couldn’t access it on their own. Everything was pretty clean with the exception of some stains in the bathroom and spiders in the windows and corners of the house. Bring your own toiletries for the shower. We loved the fireplace and amazing front porch. We would happily book this cabin again!

We stayed here over the 4th of July weekend (4 adults, 2 kids, 1 dog). Had a great time. Perfect location. Right in the middle of Cook Forest; close to Macbeth's and the river. Wish it were set a little further back from the road but that's just personal preference. It had a large wrap around porch with latched gates which was nice for our dog. Cabin was a great mix of rustic and modern. Cabin kept nice and cool with a/c units. Impressed with hot water in shower and many towels provided which was nice. There were some ants in the bathroom but ant traps were already placed. Considering it's a cabin this wasn't a worry for us. Lots of space for sleeping but not much privacy so if that bothers you this may not be the place for you. I like that the loft ladder was able to be lifted out of the way. Pillows are very thin so you may want to bring your own. Quick communication with owner when I had questions. I've stayed in many cabins in the area and this was one of my favs!

About the host

Hosted by Doug Garasic

Host profile image
We love blending rustic, minimalist, and modern design elements to create clean, cozy spaces where you can feel inspired and revived. We designed a space that we love to be in, and hope that others will love it, too!

Why they chose this property

Cook Forest is an incredibly beautiful getaway spot. The community is small and friendly. We love the river, trails, and enjoying the simplicity of nature.

What makes this property unique

The original log cabin was built in 1920 by the Cook family. We’ve heard all kinds of stories about what this has been over the years. It was home to the first Parker’s Indian Trading Post (you can visit the current store right down the road), an ice cream parlor, a t-shirt shop, and who knows what else! The suite and bathroom were added in the 1990s to transition the property into a more livable space.

Our family purchased and renovated this cabin in 2022. We christened it “Red Fox Cabin” because all our boys have hair the color of a red fox. Our hope is that this would be a place of rest, refuge, and restoration for everyone who spends time here.
