Like a treehouse in the woods

We absolutely fell in love with the cabin and our hostess, Carol! Staying here was like traveling back in time and allowed us to fully relax and reconnect with each other and with nature. Such fun fishing in the pond, relaxing on the porch, and cooking in an incredibly well-stocked kitchen. The beds could not have been more comfortable. Without question, The Cabin in the Woods is our new favorite place to stay while visiting Bloomfield. 5 stars+!

We booked the cabin the night before our first day of RAGBRAI 2024 and our first ever RAGBRAI. It was perfect for what we needed, close to Ottumwa, but quiet.

Getaway with grandkids

Long weekend with our grandsons. Property was as advertised. We did some fishing but only caught a turtle. Spotted several turkeys but the tiny hummingbird and nest directly out the picture window was a highlight.

Quiet Cabin in the Woods

Nice, quiet cabin in the woods. Very clean. Reasonably spacious but not too big. A few quirks here and there but nothing major. I've only stayed in winter so can't comment on using the grounds. The cabin is plenty warm and cozy. There in no WIFI and we had very limited cell reception but it didn't really bother us.

Nice quiet cabin in the woods

If you are looking for a getaway in the woods then this is it. Has everything you need indoors and outdoors. Senic view from the porch and from the living room. Two nice sizes bedrooms, dining area for all the family. It is decorated absolutely fantastic! You have your own pond to fish in and dont be fooled it looks small but there are some big fish in there! I caught bass, crappie and blue gill. Took my grandson and had a wonderful time! The owner is / was a refreshing experience! Her customer service is top notch. I am very pleased.

Quant little cabin in the woods.

We found this little cabin and wanted to go down in that area to fish at Lake Wapello. We picked a poor time to go down because the heat was in the 90's. So we spent a lot of time in the cabin. Were fascinated by a squirrel in the nest with head hanging out most of the time and a hummngbird buzzing around and we sighted his nest. TV came in good. U.S. Cellular phone service worked well down there. Surrounded by nature. My husband and I spent quality time down there together. Would have fished in the little pond there but to hot. A lot of nice restaurants in the area. Must go to Cantril Dutchmans Market and eat at Southfork restaurant in Bloomfield and CJ's. Family restaurant in Ottumwa. Lots to do in the area. The only withdrawel for me was I have a walker and a slope to get down to cabin but I did it. Yeah for me! Will go back again!

Country Peace and Quiet

The host and property were exactly as advertised. God fearing Christians with a patch of heaven. Two days of fun in the sun, fishing, grilling and the last day, cold and sleet. Warmed up at fire pit with coffee and coco. The pond Goliaths were evasive and majestic. Best bait to lure them in …. Pieces of good ole country bread and bread ball on the hook :). We will be back!!!

Cozy Cabin in the woods

Loved this property! Perfect size for 2 couples just looking to get out of town for the holiday weekend! The owner was so easy to work with and even reached out about a pair of glasses left behind. I really appreciate that! We arrived on Friday and stayed in until Sunday eating, drinking and enjoying games and conversation. Will keep this on our list for a future relaxation retreat!

Our stay at the cabin in the woods

When we first got to the property we were surprised at the remoteness. Not unnerved, just surprised. We walked into the cabin and were so surprised to see the cutest little rural cabin we've ever seen. The best part was the west TV room. Three sides of the room are windows that face the wooded area. It was awesome. We spent most of our time there. They had dishnetwork, a DVD player AND a VCR player! We loved this place and if you like privacy you will love this place!!

Absolutely stunning cabin

The cabin is beautiful. The pictures doesn’t do it justice. I know there was previous comments about mice but we didn’t have any issues with them while we where there. The tv worked good, dishwasher worked amazing along with all the other appliances. All the necessities like towels, dish soap, and utensils are all provided. The decor was so cute gave the cabin so much character. We didn’t have any issues the hole time we stayed. The grill worked. The set up for a camp fire is nice we didn’t use it since it was hot but the AC in the cabin worked amazing. The pond was very cute. Very tucked back into the woods with plenty of privacy. The owners are just up the driveway and around the corner. 10/10 recommend this place the view out of the living room windows is amazing!

It was a beautiful solace to stay with a beautiful view of the woods!

My husband and I came to Iowa to celebrate our 2nd wedding anniversary. It was so fun to stay at this cabin because it had so many windows looking out into the trees. The first morning we got up we saw a deer eating leaves outside. And the cabin has a nice deck where we could sit outside and sip coffee and enjoy God’s creation. It is a located in a good location because nearby there are lots of little towns and trails to hike. Our stay here will be a beautiful memory for us! We enjoyed our time here and would love to come back with our family someday.

Cabin In The Woods

This property is great! Every amenity that you that you would never expect to find, it's all there and more. They thought of everything. The homeowners are very kind, responsive, and go above and beyond to make sure that you have a wonderful stay. If you want to get away, off the grid, and be in nature, this is the property for you. We had a wonderful stay!
