Heaven

Once again the cabin was amazing. We stayed there 2 years ago for a week and it was perfect, we stayed this time for 8 days and once again it was perfect. We had my brother and his family over he lives in the little town of axson ga. We fished and just enjoyed the property. Its always hard to come back to utah after staying there. As long as this place is available we will always stay there while visiting my family in georgia.

A piece of South Georgia heaven!

This was our 2nd time staying here. If you love the peace and tranquility of nature, yet want easy access to nearby towns, its beyond perfect. The home is beautifully maintained, extremely clean, equipped with everything you need to cook. Large common area, with a beautiful porch and outside seating area. The pond view brings much peace. The grounds are very well maintained, and plenty of room for children to run and play. Communication is excellent. We certainly hope to be back soon!

It’s in a wonderful location only a few miles from any shopping or eating locations.

The cabin is so lovely. All the amminities that you need. So peaceful and quite. Loved the cypress pond, turkeys, and the Canadian geese that visited as well as a family of silver gray squirrels. Had a great time with my family that traveled with me from Brandon and Brookhaven MS and the ones that live in Blackshear. We will be back!!

Can’t say enough about this place. Love, love, love it!

This was our second year for a family vacay at this cabin. We enjoyed it just as much this year as last year. Beautiful cabin, beautiful location, has everything you need. Secluded but still have the necessities close by. About a 30 minute drive to the Okefenokee Swamp and a little over an hour to Jekyll Island. The owners/renters are very friendly and helpful!! Hope to be back again next year.

Paradise

This property is absolutely amazing. We stayed 8 days and enjoyed every second of it. The cabin is beautiful, clean and well stocked. The hosts were very nice. The property is paradise. We fished and caught 2 large mouth bass and 2 bowfins. We saw 2 alligators while fishing as well. The little town of blackshear was amazing as well and will be back for sure and we will be staying at this same spot if it's available. Best place we have stayed.

Beautiful cabin in the woods

My friends and I stayed in this beautiful cabin on our weekend trip to Okefenokee Swamp. It was immaculately clean, well stocked with everything we needed and in a stunning location. The rocking chairs on the porches overlooking the back yard were perfect! We had an amazing stay at this home. I highly recommend and hope to visit again!

Country Living at its Finest!

The location and scenery are perfect. The house is beautifully decorated, and well stocked with kitchen utensils and necessities. Just like being at home but with a beautiful lake, and great country roads for walks and golf cart rides. We Had fun fishing and spent a lot of time rocking on the porch. We will be back!

Awesome stay!

This was just what we needed and what we were looking for! It was absolutely perfect for our mini vacation. Secluded with a big yard for the kids to run and play and a lake for all the guys to go fishing. We were all able to relax and enjoy each other’s company. This property is one of my favorites that we’ve stayed at and definitely plan to be back! We also had some alligator spotting in the lake outback, which made for a cool experience! Thanks for the great stay, Jen!

As advertised! Exactly what we were looking for!

We booked the cabin in blackshear for quick weekend getaway. The cabin was clean, well stocked, private and perfect sleeping accommodations for me and my family. The lake was an added bonus, we enjoyed fishing and watching the fog rise on the cold mornings. Thank you for sharing your cabin with us, we will be back!

Peaceful, family friendly nature escape

This is a wonderful property with excellent hospitality and care. We especially appreciated the new master bathroom addition that was not yet in the listing, the use of the john boat (although the latter is showing its age), and the large wrap around deck with rocking chairs. The only slightly negatives I can think of are the broken ice maker and in door water water of the refrigerator (although pre-made cube trays are provided), and the strong air freshener scent throughout that didn't seem to be covering up anything. Overall we had an excellent stay that our whole family of 8, ranging from 3 to 18 and adults, very much enjoyed.

Cabin is such an understatement!

We very much enjoyed our time at Roberts Cabin. Plenty of room for a family gathering. Our family has a reunion every July 4th. We’re growing in number exponentially. This is an amazing place to serve as a 2nd location. Lots of little extras, that most homes don’t offer, that make the experience so much more. Also a hunter/fisherman’s dream come true.
