Property is perfect for a long weekend getaway with your spouse/partner and a four legged friend. Nice and quiet! It's a bummer that the hot tub was not heating properly. That's the only reason for the 4 stars rating. Other than that, it's a great stay!

This is everything and more!!!

Couldn't have been more happy with our stay. We have frequented many cabins in the past and this one goes above and beyond any expectations from our experiences. We will be regulars to this property, for sure! Not to mention the owners were extremely nice and ready available for any help or questions. We need more host like these around and more properties like this available. 10 out of 5 stars for sure!!!

Little Charming Gem in Hill Country

The location is awesome; so close to the bluest water around with so many tame deer and other wildlife! House is set up perfect for a big family gathering with kids. Pool and spa need a little work but owner just purchased and has some maintenance to catch up on. Owner and property manager were very responsive and attentive to needs.

Weekend getaway

Husband and I had a great time. The cabin is quaint, semi off the grid and so quiet. It was nice with no one around needing you every few minutes lol Cabin is clean and well stocked with everything you need. Comfy bed and cozy living space. The property is beautiful! Definitely a crazy drive to get there but we had fun. I am so glad we found this place and hope to visit again. Thank you Leah and Wes!

Hot Springs Hideaway!!

Beautiful property once you get up the mountain!! Great for my wife and I, very cozy. Jacuzzi was perfect after a day hiking on the AT. We had 4 wheel drive which was no problem even after the light snow the night before our arrival. My daughter came by to visit and made it up in a front wheel drive Honda. It is steep but the drive is ion great shape!

Worth the trip.

Property is listed as WiFi but does not have WiFi. You gain it by walking up a driveway to a sister property. Also the bed sheets were not changed but luckily a spare set was and we changed them out. Other than those two points it’s an average 3star stay.

Fairy Tale

This property was so beautiful! I felt like I was in a fairy tale. The cabin was exceptionally clean and well stocked. There were hiking paths and a pond to play in for outdoor activities. My favorite part though, was just sitting on the back porch and absorbing the quiet. We can't wait to come back!!

Lovely Property

We had a wonderful time. We rented Fox Den and Fawn Hideaway for a family vacation. Caught fish, kayaked and swam in the spring fed pond, enjoyed the fire pit and overall peacefulness of the property. We had cell service on one section of the patio so be aware of that as noted in the information. Thank you for the hospitality!

Secluded Summer Camp

Had a great stay at this cabin. The kids loved the pond, kayaks, fishing, and archery. It was the perfect location for what we had planned. Owner's description on the driveway is accurate, you will need 4x4 to get up it (especially if it rains). In addition to no wifi in the cabin itself (as described), we also had no cell phone service for miles. Just be prepared to be off grid while staying there. Not necessarily a bad thing...

2nd Stay! Will be back!

We had another excellent stay and would absolutely come back again. The cabin is small and cozy - perfect for a long weekend. Our only real complaint is the shower being so small and the way the water sprays out when the door is opened - I felt bad using all the towels to keep the floor dry! But this is definitely a very minor problem :) We love this place!

quiet oasis in the mountains

Great get away in the mountains, It Is close to Appalachian trail. but you really don't need to leave the property for some nice short hikes. The fox Den has a spacious covered front porch with sweet rocking chairs ( and a couch) with stunning views The bed was nice, even the futon was amazing comfortable. The fawn hideaway was very cozy everything that one needed.

Truely a special place, it made our holiday.

This was exactly what we were looking for. A log cabin nestled in the forest and off the beaten track. We hiked by day, soaked at sunset and drunk vino by the fire at night under the stars. Truely a special place, it made our holiday.

Absolutely perfect

This cabin and property was absolutely perfect for our quiet mountain weekend getaway. Fox den is small and cozy - perfect for two - and we really enjoyed waking up to see deer grazing next to the driveway and having our coffee down by the pond. I really have zero complaints. We didn't want to leave and would 100% come back again. Just a heads up for those who need firm mattresses: the mattress on the bed is extremely soft, so you may want to bring your own firm pillows or plan to sleep on the futon. I thought it was comfy, but my husband had a tough time sleeping on it due to some neck problems.

Sweet little cabin and great pond!

We loved the sweet little cabin and enjoyed the hot tub! Also the outside activities were awesome! Loved fishing at the pond, the trails to walk, the fire pits, they were all great! Only complaint, ANTS! The kitchen definitely needs to be sprayed for ants, we were constantly fighting them. I know we were in the woods, but this was not a “woods” issue, the kitchen in the cabin definitely needs to be sprayed for ants!

The cabin is homey and has everything needed. The grounds are beautiful.

We were on the property 3 days. We enjoyed the cabin and hot tub. We were attending a nearby festival so we didn’t take advantage of trails or the pond. It was comfortable on hot days. It is well supplied. Going up the driveway is a challenge and we took it twice a day. The host is helpful and could respond quickly.

About the host

Hosted by Leah & Wes

Host profile image
We’ve put a lot of care into maintaining Fern Rock as a place where guests can slow down, enjoy the outdoors, and spend quality time together. We’re available if anything comes up and want your stay to feel easy and comfortable from start to finish.

Why they chose this property

Fern Rock stands out for its rare combination of privacy, space, and access to the natural beauty of the mountains. Set on 16 wooded acres, it offers a level of seclusion that’s hard to find, while still being within driving distance of Hot Springs and the surrounding trails.

What makes this area special is how immersive it feels. You’re surrounded by forest, mountain views, and the sounds of nature, with space to explore right on the property, including walking trails and a spring-fed pond.

At the same time, you’re close enough to enjoy the winding drive along Highway 209 (The Rattler) and everything the Hot Springs area has to offer, from hiking to exploring the local town.

It’s a place that makes it easy to slow down, spend time outdoors, and enjoy being together without distractions.

What makes this property unique

The smell of fresh pine, views of mountain ranges older than the Rockies, and a sky full of stars set the tone—but what truly makes Fern Rock unique is the space and privacy it offers.

Set on 16 private acres with a full lodge and separate treetop porch, the property gives your group room to spread out, explore, and enjoy time together in a way that’s hard to find.

From walking trails and a spring-fed pond to multiple outdoor gathering spaces, it’s a setting that feels both expansive and connected to nature.
