Location was so pretty and quiet. The cabin was great and offered everything we needed. We were impressed with the cleanliness. Enjoyed watching hummingbirds and our morning visits with Tiki, one of the sweetest dogs I've ever met. I'd definitely recommend to anyone needing a break!

The cabin was lovely and well stocked to meet our needs. We were a little put off by all the LED lights at night - especially right next to the bed. Not sure anything can be done about that, though. We live on a farm and enjoy darkness at night . Other than that we truly enjoyed our stay. Thank you!!

Anniversary Getaway

Our daughter and her family are temporarily living with us including their 3 dogs, 2 cats (one a kitten), a turtle named Shelly and a fish named Blue. Needless to say, our house is constant noise & activity. We just recently passed our 43rd wedding anniversary and needed a getaway. This house was a blessing in so many ways. It was clean, nice and cool, had everything we needed, and we even met a new friend (yellow lab). My husband loved the antiques displayed and the beauty of the cabin and the way it was built. We loved the cabin so much, we wanted to extend our stay but could not due to it already being booked. Thx to our hosts for their hospitality. We will definitely go back.

First retirement vacation

We were impressed with the story of how this cabin came to life by an individual named Bob and how the new owner(s), Cathie continued his dream project. It was sad to hear of Bobs passing, however, the cabin was completed and it is a wonderful dwelling and has so much spirit.

Bob's Cabin in the Woods

Everything about this place was phenomenal...Peaceful, quiet, and relaxing.....

It just don't get any better....We will definitely be returning for another relaxing visit....

Relaxing

Beautiful cabin and property. Quiet and peaceful. All the amenities provided and more. We brought our dog and was pleased to see a doggie door to outside fenced kennel for her to come and go as needed. The roads/driveway to the cabin from main road have thick loose gravel. We had trailered our motorcycles so unable to ride them to and from cabin. However we found plenty of spots to park and unload to ride each day. No problem taking trailer up to property with plenty of room to pull in and out. So many thoughtful items left around the inside and outside of the cabin. Thank you so much for providing a wonderful place for us to relax.

It was rustic, but nice. House was very well stocked with anything you might need. The cabin was very quiet and secluded. Very close to the lake and the town of Cookson. We will stay there again.

Comfortable rustic getaway

A historically rustic cabin with modern amenities that make it very comfortable. Cozy but not cramped…well appointed to make it a safe, accessible and a very enjoyable venue. Conveniently located to the lake and town but, as the name implies, tucked remotely in the woods.

Short get a way

We enjoyed the peaceful cabin and its surroundings. A great area to be in for short ventures to small towns . The fall foliage was awesome and we seen about ten deer strolling through in the evening. Lots of squirrels getting ready to bed down for colder weather. Would love to come back in spring or summer. 💯 recommend.

Birthday & anniversary weekend

Very clean and well stocked. Cathy had snacks, coffee pods and lots of miscellaneous items for use if needed. Super communication and simple check in. Really appreciated the album about the history of the cabin/builder and also the notebook with helpful hints 😁. The leaves and yard were beautiful this fall, with deer frequenting the front yard daily. This porch is amazing! Look forward to spending a long weekend here again.
