Great location for suwanee reunion and time away from crowds in evening. Recommendation for Dixie Grill was spot on before getting back on road. Everything was perfect for our stay, comfortable ins8de dur8ng chilly evenings outdoors. Thanks, we will return to see springs nearby next time.
Our stay was perfect! This was a sweet and cozy getaway for me and my husband's 24th Anniversary. Very secluded and peaceful! The host Cyndi was very pleasant and responded quickly to any assistance or recommendations we had.
We booked pretty last minute and stayed here for one night before we picked up our new dachshund puppy. We didn’t get in until 2am after work and driving from Ga and everything was super easy to navigate! We also were able to get late checkout. Everything was clean and comfortable! We enjoyed the peace and quiet!
Super cozy and cute. We loved our little romantic getaway here. Secluded yet still very convenient to Publix, restaurants, etc. Hosts do a great job at communicating and are very helpful. We will definitely be back when we are in the area!

Private and secluded getaway spot that was a perfect comfortable and cozy retreat after my long and busy days! Space was very clean and hosts were incredibly responsive and hospitable, going above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed.
The loft was so beautiful and cozy. It was the perfect place for a couples get away to spend Valentine’s Day! Not to mention the hosts were so accommodating and helped meSurprise my girlfriend by decorating the loft so beautifully for a super reasonable price (thank you Krista!). It was clean, quiet, relaxing and the bed was so comfortable. I would recommend to anyone traveling to the live oak area! I can’t say enough wonderful things about the location and the hosts! A so wonderful experience all together.
The loft is an awesome little retreat to get away from the busy city life and relax. Everything you need is only 10-15 mins away. The host is incredible. If there’s something needed or any issues, she is on it. I would definitely recommend this place. I will be back sooner than later!

Thank you for your kind words, Adam! We would love to host you again.
Loved our few days here in this quiet cabin feeling one with nature and away from all the hustle and bustle.
In its simplicity, the amenities were great. The super comfy bed, nice little leather sofa, plush linens, and well equiped kitchen. It all felt very special and we hope to one day return again.

Thank you Sharon for your feedback. We’d love to have you come stay again.
A quiet and convenient place to stay for a nearby event. Furnishings are simple but certainly adequate for one or two persons. Bed is comfortable. Live Oak is very close by if you need a town. Cooking is limited to a hot plate or pizza oven, so would have liked to have a microwave. Altogether a nice place and an enjoyable stay. Thanks.

Thank you Joe for you staying with us. We hope to see you again.
Loved this area, the property, and the loft. I wish there'd been screens so I could let the fresh air flow instead of using the wall unit and the bed was very soft so not great for bad backs. But otherwise, the place was very clean, cozy, and we could see all the stars in the sky!

About the host
Hosted by Cyndi
Our children are 7th generation Suwannee county residents. So basically, we've lived here for a while. I love to share what our little county has to offer. We enjoy kayaking, late night fires and all the wild animals here.
Why they chose this property
This property is 22 acres. Almost completely wooded and very private. It's quiet and has numerous deer, turkeys and squirrels.
What makes this property unique
Our property is only 400 sq ft... We like to say the perfect size for 2 people. I really like that you are in the "woods" but within 3 minutes you can grab something you forgot from town or have an unforgettable meal and adult beverages at The Brown Lantern or The 406.
