Lots of fun for our family of four! The kids loved their loft beds.We loved the front porch with the hot tub. Everything was well stocked in the kitchen. The location was super cool with the rock formations.I would recommend a fan in the middle of the room to regulate the temperature from the lower level to the top level of the cabin.Thanks for a great stay!

We loved our stay! The cabin was so nice. We spent a lot of our time out on the porch. Our pups loved the place! It provided privacy but also close to local attractions.

My family stayed here for a long weekend getaway. We went cave kayaking and hiking. We loved the location. My kids loved the hot tub and loft beds.
Cabin was nice and clean. There were a few bugs (it is in the middle of the woods, so to be expected). Driveway was steep, definitely recommend a vehicle with 4 wheel or all wheel drive.

Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad you enjoyed the cabin and found it nice and clean. While the occasional bug can appear in a wooded setting, we do have preventative maintenance and pest control in place to help mitigate any issues as best we can. We also appreciate your note about the steep driveway — we agree that 4WD or AWD is the best option for easy access, but it is not completely necessary. 2wd vehicles can still make it, just know that there is a very steep paved hill to climb. We’d love to host you again in the future!
Not your typical short-term rental. Our stay exceeded expectations! The cabin was a cozy, peaceful retreat in the woods, perfect for a rainy fall getaway. We were planning on doing some hiking, but the rain kept us in, but it all worked out. The kitchen had everything we needed, and we loved relaxing in the hot tub or playing games indoors. When the rain eased, we enjoyed walking the community trails in the rain breaks. Despite feeling secluded, the cabin was easy to access with our 2WD.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled your stay exceeded expectations and that you could relax and enjoy the cozy vibe, even with the rainy weather. It sounds like you made the most of it — soaking in the hot tub, playing games, and exploring between showers. We’re so glad the cabin felt peaceful yet accessible, and we’d love to host you again anytime!
The cabin was in the perfect location private but close to it all. It was very clean and comfortable. When cooking breakfast we could not get the hot plates to work, so bring extra charcoal they have great pans for the outside grill. Unfortunately the lock in the door didn't work quite right which was a big safety concern, but hopefully will be fixed soon. Otherwise it was hands down a great stay and would go back if the lock issue is resolved.

Thank you for the feedback and for letting us know about the lock — that’s already being fixed. We’ll also make sure future guests have clearer instructions for using the hot plates in the cabin guide. Appreciate you sharing this with us.
The cabin was beautiful and the inside was so cute and comfy! The beds are very comfortable and ours son loved the big round bean bag like things. The driveway is really steep though, our AWD handled not so sure how a car would do.
This cabin was the perfect place for a quick getaway for our family of 4. The porch and hot tub were a great place to spend the mornings, and wind down after a day on the trails. The cabin had everything you would need. Quick access to trails, and an overall beautiful location. We will be back!

My preteen said the cabin was a definite W. We loved the architecture and decor, the on-property hiking, the PERFECT location, and we especially enjoyed the hot tub! The lofts and the huge deck were awesome. Man, that driveway though, LOL. I was grateful for my Wrangler! We would absolutely stay again.

Hey Jennifer, thank you so much for your wonderful review! Welcome back to any of our RRG Getaways cabins anytime!
My husband and I stayed for a quick getaway and this place did not disappoint. We loved the privacy and quiet it provided. The house decor to great, huge bathroom for a small house and the patio with hot tub was the best after long hikes. The loft for sleeping took some getting used to….you have to have your wits about you in the morning (remembering to not sit up and staying steady coming down the ladder)….but it added to the fun and adventure!
Highly recommend! We will be back!

Cabin was not user friendly for older people. Access to lofts required squatting or crawling at the top of the stairs. Additional handhold could help make the tradition. “Beanbag chairs do not work for older people. Saw no induction stovetop.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the cabin layout wasn’t the best fit for your group. The lofted rooms are indeed accessed by ship ladders and designed with a fun, adventurous feel that many guests enjoy — we do our best to show this clearly in our photos and description so future guests know what to expect.
We truly appreciate you staying with us and sharing your thoughts, as it helps others decide if this unique setup is right for them.
Warm regards,
The RRG Getaways Team
Liked the location, the downstairs and outdoor space are excellent. The sleeping areas are high and ceilings are very low. No normal sized adult can stand up. That is the only negative. But being 6'5" tall made it hard.
