The perfect getaway

I wanted a cozy place to unplug and unwind before starting a new job and this stay did not disappoint! Bring sunscreen because you'll want to spend all your time outside. We hiked, fished, canoed, and spent lots of time petting the animals. It was glorious!

A perfect trip for beauty, privacy, and fishing off the deck! My husband caught about 30 fish, bass and bream. It is catch and release. It is a beautifully decorated cottage on a farm where the owners live further down the lake. Lovely flowers to enjoy. While he fished, I took a long walk and saw all the animals including two friendly dogs, and I enjoyed the kayaking. No TV, but our IPADS worked perfectly. I am 76 and my husband is 79, and we had no trouble with navigation on the property. We will be back!

Once you visit this cozy cabin once you will want to go back! This is a great place to recharge and get away from the rest of world The owners are great and are very helpful. There are two kayaks and a canoe available with paddle's, they have a huge catch and release lake, you can swim or there are tubes that we utilized just to float, the cabin is stocked with plates, cups, and silverware, there’s a small hiking trail as well right out the back door. One of our favorite things was the animals that we met (“right out the front door”). Most or all of their animals are rescues which include ducks, chickens, 3 or 4 ponies, a pig, a few barn cats , and two friendly dogs named Chris and Bear who enjoyed following/showing us around ☺️:) on top of allll of that the owners Joel and Kim who own Providence Farm have a little shop set up inside the cabin where you can buy eggs, fresh bread, honey, pepper jelly, muscadine grape jelly, apply jelly, wreaths, bouquets from their flower garden and more!! This is a home away from home and I promise you will never want to leave!

Relaxation at its finest

We were very happy with the location/isolation of the property. The wife was able to catch several fish, i was able to kayak around the lake, and we both enjoyed just being able to disconnect from everyone for a few days! The shower may be an issue for a bigger person, but other than that, definitely would recommend for getaeay/recharge.

Great relaxing stay

This was our second visit to this location, and we enjoyed it just as much as the first. The property is beautiful and the farm has many cute, fun animals to watch and interact with. There is no TV, which is great for connecting, but bring games or books in case it rains. The cabin is very clean and the kitchen has everything you need to make meals.

Such a peaceful place to stay

Our only regret for staying at the cabin was not having enough time there. We were hiking the MammothMarch at Fall Creek Falls which took up our entire Saturday. We loved sitting on the front porch looking at the lake and watching the animals and listening to nothing but nature! Kim and Joel, the hosts were amazing and made sure we had everything we needed. Would love to come and stay when all the flowers are in bloom!

Relaxing and Beautiful Anniversary Trip

My boyfriend and I stayed the weekend of news years and celebrated our one year anniversary. The cabin was so beautiful with the Christmas decorations and wood burner! We wanted a weekend to relax and spend time with each other and we got exactly that. My boyfriend was able to fish while I took in the beautiful view of the lake on the dock located right outside of the cabin. We both absolutely loved the pups that greeted us Saturday morning as well as the other animals! They had everything we needed to make a steak dinner Sunday night, after a quick stop to a grocery store. The cabin more than exceeded our expectations on cleanliness and comfort! We had a wonderful time and I hope to visit again someday. Thank you Kim and Joel for created such a beautiful place and sharing it! P.S. you have to buy their chapstick, it’s amazing! I regret not buying multiple. And my boyfriend loved the red pepper jelly!
