A peaceful, serene, and relaxing stay surrounded by the beauty of nature. All the comforts of home in a charming throw-back cabin that evokes “good old days” of the simple pleasures of country living. The price is very reasonable, the hostess communicates in a pleasant friendly and timely manner, and the property exceeds its description and the clients’ expectations. If within 50 miles of this property I would not stay elsewhere if it was available. Exceptional in all regards!

A comfortable space and remote enough to feel like you are away from it all.I am a moth collector and I was able to to find a Regal, Imperial, Blinded Sphinx and a Prometheus to nameA few. We loved the occasional train passing by and great night sounds with owls and cicadas and frogs. We enjoyed our stay.Tad & Jodie….. Molokaislide.com

My husband and I enjoyed the peace and quiet of this beautiful cabin which is very spacious with three bedrooms and two full baths. The woods and water surrounding the cabin are beautiful. A short drive from the cabin is Talladega, where my husband and I had several meals, met some of the friendliest people, and learned about historic Talladega College. Our host, Maggie, is very gracious, very accommodating, and very accessible. My husband and I would love to return to the cabin in the fall when the leaves have changed. Thank you, Maggie, for sharing your cabin with us and for a wonderful stay full of precious memories.

My partner and I absolutely love this little house and property in the woods! There are no close neighbors, which is a plus. It is bumped right up against Talladega national forest, and there is a creek on the property. We hiked through the forest and the woods surrounding the property, enjoyed the rain on the screened porch, and listened to deer walking through the woods. If you are looking for a place that is quiet, secluded, relaxing, and surrounded by nature, then this is the place to stay. The host was wonderful and was in communication with us early on and as needed. The cabin is pet friendly, and our baby loved having access to the water. You’re also not far from a Dollar General and a Walmart.You should know that the property is very close to a railroad crossing, and trains will blast their horns and pass through at all hours of the day and night. However, this did not bother my partner and I in the slightest as we so rarely get to hear this. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about this place. We will definitely come here again.

I’m so glad that you cherished our Waldo home as we do! I love exploring the forests and creek also. So many folks tell us that the nostalgia of the trains is a favorite memory for them. Thanks for the review!

The Waldo Cabin was such a beautiful little sanctuary in the woods! The location provides a private little getaway, while still close to convenience of town. As well it is not far from the beautiful Majestic Caverns! The owner was super helpful with answering questions and providing information about the area. My family and I were on vacation during our stay but had a family member dealing with medical emergency and had to stay at Grandview Medical Center. The drive to Grandview was scenic and also convenient to get there within an hour. The creek at the property was a short little walk to get to and was an enjoyable little spot! The cabin itself was spacious and very homey, with the screened porch being the best place to relax and enjoy the sounds of nature's choir! Would rate the owner and the property at 10/10! We hope to visit it again!

Nice property with lots to explore! The creek is so peaceful and it’s a nice little walk just bring a stick to knock down spider webs along the way ;) Loved sitting on the screen porch and roasting marshmallows by the fire pit. Already talking about the next time we visit family staying here again.

My wife, my doggies and I really enjoyed our extended stay. Maggie was an excellent host, easy to communicate with, relaxed and easygoing. The place was in a beautiful spot in the world. Remote with lots of places to hike and enjoy nature. If you needed any supplies, talledaga was only 5 miles up the road with anything you need, very convenient. The house was nice and comfy with a cool cabin feel and everything you need. Would highly recommend if you like a tranquil experience.
