About this property

This is a great cabin for 2 to 9 guest. Location is excellent minutes to Patoka Marina , winery and restaurants. 25 minutes to French Lick and casino, as well as other restaurants. We have a Hot Springs hot tub that holds 6 maybe even 7 comfortably on the back screened in deck. There is a queen in master and a sofa sleeper on main level. In the loft there are 5 twins, 2 are trundles that can be lifted to make 2 doubles if you have couples. So the sleeping option are up to you. We have a nice little round drive for extra parking and possible boat... We are nestled in a wooded lot with distance from neighbors for your privacy. We have a firepit on the side of cabin . There is a full bath on main level as well as a washer dryer and a half bath in loft to make it easier for a bigger groups. Kitchen is well stocked coffee maker ,toaster ,blender, dishes pots, pans, cookie sheet etc. Also provide coffee and filters.. Usually have creamer as well..Patoka marina is 5 to 7 minutes away and we have a park pass for guest. This is a gem in a very relaxing spot to get away and sit back and enjoy the nature all around or hit the Lake . French Lick Casino is just a short drive. Snow birds can enjoy Paoli Peaks 35 or so minutes away. Hoosier hills is 15 minutes away for hikers. Patoka winery is 2 minutes away as well as Bennys off the water.

Great Stay at Cardinal Cabin

We wanted a weekend getaway around Patoka Lake. Cardinal Cabin was the perfect choice, the area is beautiful. There’s a lot to do around the area and French Lick is only a small drive away. The cabin was extremely clean and well maintained. We enjoyed the hot tub and overall, just relaxing in the cabin. Would definitely rent this cabin again!

Anniversary Getaway

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful weekend away to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. With 4 children, full time jobs, and everyday responsibilities.... It was nice to spend uninterrupted time together and to just soak up each others company. The cabin was absolutely perfect and had everything we needed!!

Exactly what we needed

We were trying to get away from the city's crazy 4th of July fireworks frenzy and this place was so relaxing and nice we really enjoyed it. The Hosts were absolutely helpful as well which made it even better. I highly recommend this place if you want to feel connected to nature

Staying at Cardinal Cabin was a dream. It was cozy, clean and quiet. Google Maps took us to the wrong place, but there's a little wooden sign right by the correct driveway. Would love to go back in the fall!

We had a great time using the cabin as a base to explore the area. Felt remote but was close to a lot of activities. The hot tub was wonderful in the evening after hiking all day!

Patoka vacation

Great location. Secluded, quiet and just minutes from the main gate to Patoka lake. Screened in porch with hot tub was fantastic. Very clean and relaxing. Only negative we have was the bed in the main bedroom was uncomfortable for us . May have just been us as we are not spring chickens and are used to a firmer bed.
