Family getaway

We stayed at the lovely property so that we could attend a family reunion at Lost River State Park. The park was only about 7 miles from the house. The home was lovely. Clean and well maintained. We loved the front porch swing and my 12 year old son spent time on the swing off the front porch. We put on water shoes and explored the creek out back too! The kitchen was well stocked and we were able to cook with food we brought as there are not stores close by. We plan to stay again next year! I would suggest bringing drinking water if you don’t like the sulfur smell from well water. It is quite strong. The AC was not able to cool the house so we opted to turn it off and open the windows since it was cool overnight. The pool mentioned in the listing and pictured is no longer there. Just a heads up for those thinking they can take a dip. Nice house with all the comforts of home!!!

A delightful cabin getaway

The cabin was very clean (and clear of bugs) and felt very homey. Communication with the hosts was quick and easy and we found them to be very accommodating. The check-in/check-out was super easy! The home was well stocked with all the needed essentials. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of linens and towels. The outside had some nice areas to sit and relax or take a nice nature stroll. The place was not well marked (just a had the street number on a vertical pole, which if you were arriving at night or driving too fast, you might miss...however, GPS worked well to get us there. MAKE SURE to have the GPS driving directions already on your phone before you hit the 5 mile to location since cell phone service is non-existent until you get to the place and hook up to their wifi. Then, it works well while at the cabin. Not a lot of options to eat out near the place, so make sure you do a little meal planning ahead of time. The nearest Dollar General does have nice food options if you need some stuff. The only negative about the place was the strong smell of sulfur coming from the water (safe to drink and it doesn't stick to your skin when showering). There are some air diffusers in the place, but it doesn't mask the odor well. Eventually, we did get used to it! With that being said...make sure you bring plenty of drinking water/beverages if you don't want to drink/use the water. Our family enjoyed our stay there. We will most likely be back to stay!

A great weekend getaway!

The cabin was very private & beautiful which we loved . The stores were not as close as we thought.Not to happy about our 6pm checkin time. We should've gotten some money off for that. From the other reviews the sulphur smell from the water was very strong & the chroline was also strong in the pool it burned our eyes real bad. We only were left with 2 garbage bags barely no dish soap & there were alot of bugs & carpenter ants in the cabin.The shower water pressure was very low & the kitchen sink. Other than that We had a great time my kids loved the pool !!
