Everything was perfect with our stay at the Cardinal cabin. Host Lisa is very accessible and ensured that every need was fulfilled. We stayed 11 days and wished we could have stayed a month !!!!
Great getaway if you want to be out of touch with everyone. There are things to do if you want to drive a little ways. Cabin was beautiful and cozy. Loved the hot tub
We have been enjoying southern Indiana for 25 years. Our stay was the celebration of our marriage for that long to each other. We have over the years stayed in a lot of different cabins but none like this one was. From the time we got there and opened the door after that we never wanted to leave. The accommodation were excellent everything was pretty much provided buy the owners. Couldn't have asked for a better time. Thank you very much and yes it is a definite must stay again cabin. We will be returning for another delightful and enjoyable week.
We had a wonderful and relaxing stay at the Cardinal Cabin. It had everything we needed and more. I would highly recommend staying here. It was Perfect with no issues! Thank you!

Amber, thank you for your stay. You are A guest. The cabin looked great and that is always a blessing. Thanks
What an amazing weekend. The cabin was perfect for the 5 of us. Close enough to local winery. 15 miles from French Lick and some very cool antique/thrift shops. Will definitely be back!
We have stayed at this location twice now and both times had a great visit. Clean cabin, comfortable, great location, nice hot tub, plenty of room for 5 adults.
Nice place. Could have used more hand towels, other than that. All was good.

Carol, not sure how many hand towels are expected. 2 down stairs and one up stairs is my usual and never had someone unhappy about that. Otherwise glad all was well. We try to give our guest everything needed, will make a note of this and continue to make Cardinal a nice get a way. Thanks for staying.
We had a wonderful time staying at the cabin. It is very well maintained and there is so many things to do in the area. The hot tub was great! We highly recommend staying here!
We loved being able to bring our dog, she enjoyed the surroundings. We did not have any problems with anything. The hot tub was great! The free pass to the park area was handy too. Lisa sent us our information that we needed. The cabin was very clean and very comfortable.
Awesome, kind, super communicative property manager. A really nice cabin - a gorgeous state of the art hot tub, cozy places to sit and spend time together, superbly clean place! Pro tip - Difficult to find groceries nearby, so plan your grocery pickup well before getting into Birdseye.
