Very nice

Very nice cabin in a secluded, wooded area, but still very close to town. Check-in was flawless. Beds were great. Hot tub was clean. Only problem over a 4 day 3 night stay was that the gas fireplace did not work. Reported this to management the firstbhour after Check-in, but was never addressed by property manager.

Cozy Cabin

The kids loved the pool table and the lift bedroom upstairs. We enjoyed the fire pit, the cabin was comfortable, and the water in the shower was great. The furniture is getting a little old but the beds were comfortable. I really wish there was two showers instead of just one and there isn’t enough mirrors there. Small things that didn’t change how much we enjoyed ourselves.

OU Family weekend!

Our oldest daughter attends OU in Athens. This is her 3rd year and we wanted to celebrate family weekend a little different. We had so much fun! The cabin had everything we needed for entertainment. With 3 girls in the house, a mirror in the upstairs half bath would have been great! Beautiful property! Thank you for sharing with us!

Stay at Rusty Lantern

The Rusty Lantern was all we imagined it to be. The property held up to its expectations. The game room was one of the best features of this property.

Inside beautiful - outside needs a little more work

The inside was clean and beautiful. The outside needed some cleaning and upkeep. I swept the deck from the drive way and around to the large deck on the back to clean it up a little. Part (not all) of the road leading to the cabin needs some work. But not sure if you would have any control of that. We had perfect weather for a fire outside with lots of fun and laughter. Overall, we had a wonderful weekend get away.

Lovely, but Hot Tub broken

We had a great trip and the cabin was beautiful. I was super disappointed with the hot tub situation. It was hot, but no bubbles. I had made an inquiry prior to check in from a previous review. And I was told they were working on it. But obviously that never happened. Other than that, the property was amazing and would rent it again as long as the hot tub is fixed.

Rusty Lantern

The cabin was very nice and quaint. There were a few small things that need some attention. The listing claims washed and dryer are included, though they are in a locked room. The water in the hot tub was very cloudy when we checked in, thus we decided to not utilize it. The water was clearer this morning when we checked out. I’m guessing the water hadn’t settled from treatment prior to our arrival. The upstairs light switch also has a short that needs addressed.

Great Cabin and Service

The cabin was very clean and had an extra bed we didn’t understand from the post, so that was nice! There are 4 beds, one in the loft and 3 in bedrooms. The place was very clean. The hot tub control was not working properly, but the service person came right out and fixed it! Also, we forgot a lighter and he brought one too! So nice. The rec room was fun for the kiddos. We did bring a fire stick thank goodness because there was no ESPN on the cable provided. The TV upstairs was missing a power cord for the cable box, so we were not able to use that TV. Overall, we would stay there again. It was a great, clean place and the people running it were easy to work with!
