Thank you for the review and the helpful feedback! We're glad you found Charming Cabin at Ballard's in Carthage cute and clean and loved the shower. You're right that the upstairs loft is best suited for kids, and we appreciate you pointing that out for future guests. We'd love to host you again.

Peaceful Retreat

This well kept property has a lovely view of the pond. It was perfect for our ladies get away! Though the loft has a low ceiling, it worked very well for our needs and I imagine that kids would love it!

Pops Funeral

Only thing is that 6 Adults have a harder comfortable stay with this property being not a full loft but a tiny loft. Sleep arrangements are not terrible but not what was thought of as being for tall ot bigger people

Simply Amazing!

This was our first time booking a Vrbo stay and it set the bar high! Plenty of space for the 4 of us inside and out. Everything was clean, very well kept, and working as it should. We thoroughly enjoyed having the pond right out front and did more than our fair share of fishing. The steps to the loft are tight but it was not difficult for me or my kids to navigate. Whether we were outside fishing, sitting on the deck, or inside relaxing on the couch with our feet up and watching tv, this cabin was perfect. Definitely looking forward to staying there again!

Cute tiny home

Very cute place. Clean. Fun decor. Bed was memory foam which we do not prefer. Wifi was out the entire 4 days we were there. We were not made aware of that in advance. Owner was very nice and responded promptly but was unable to get the wifi going. Extra supplies have to acquired at the main office and are not readily available in the home (dishwasher soap, laundry soap, paper towels, trash bags, etc). The shower had a bit of a drain issue but was well stocked with hair and body products. Nicely stocked kitchen with coffee. The loft play room was so fun for my grandsons. If you have littles, be aware the stairs are narrow and steep, but there is a locking baby gate. The ceiling in the loft is about 4 feet high, so difficult to maneuver if adults will sleep up there. 2 twin beds and bedding are upstairs. Overall, it is a charming place in a good location. Give it a try!
