A perfect relaxing getaway

We enjoyed our short stay at this quaint little cabin in the woods. It offered so many activities for everyone. We were spoiled by the hospitality and cleanliness of the cabin. We decided that this is a new tradition that we will begin in this next season of life for life long friends!

Truly Five Stars

Our whole family had the best time (esp our dog!) - the kids loved the hot tub, paddle boat, exploring the woods, and the PacMan arcade too. We went into Nashville every day for a meal or snack, it was the perfect distance away to make it a fun excursion but we were always happy to get back to the peaceful cabin. Truly the perfect place for our trip!

Peaceful

This property was fabulous. The cabin itself was excellent, everything you need was ready for you, even treats! But the property itself is the best getaway. You can spend a whole weekend and never leave, hiking, resting, just getting away.

Great Fall Getaway!

We absolutely loved 5 Star cabin! We loved the hiking trails throughout the property and having the big outdoor fireplace was wonderful! The hot tub was so nice to enjoy during the cool evenings. We appreciated Marissa’s quick replies to any questions we had. This is one of the nicest properties we have ever stayed at and we definitely planning to return!

The trip I didn't know I needed

This was our first time in the state of Indiana. We were here for a wedding. I was pretty sure this might be our last time in Indiana. After staying at the 5 star cabin, I know we will be back. This is truly a magical property and great people to plan a trip with.

Paradise Away from Home

Great location to escape from the hustle of daily life. Easy access off 135 and not too far from Little Nashville. Sadly the bridge was out of commission to enjoy the full property. Overall wonderful stay and highly recommend this property for a little peace of serenity away from home.
