I couldn't recommend this place more! They thought of everything... From the kitchen layout (two dishwashers and two refrigerators) to the game room to the little details (q-tips stocked in the bathrooms and pool toys ready for the kids), we couldn't have asked for a better house. Everything was clean, organized and meticulously thought through. We had 4 adults and 9 kids and all 9 of us talked about rebooking here again!

This was a reunion of college friends getting together to celebrate a significant birthday (70)This house has it all! There was no reason to leave! There are numerous games, a theater, arcade and pool table to enjoy while inside. Outside we enjoyed the pool, spa and fire pit. Sitting on the deck in the evening for dinner was delightful. There was comfortable sleeping for all of us! Plenty of bathrooms to accommodate our needs. The kitchen area was complete from the double dishwashers, double range/ovens and double refrigerator, to the multiple coffee makers, wine cooler and ice machine. The fire places added lovely ambiance as we chatted late into the night. Walks around the property was a great way for friends to exercise and explore. The pond was delightful for those who enjoyed water activities. Our only disappointment was we did not book more days for our stay! We did not was to leave. Jennifer was easy to communicate with and her philosophy of wanting her guests to relax and enjoy came through in every detail from communication to accommodations. This is a must for large gatherings. BTW the Park and town are close by if you want to venture out.

AMAZING. LOVELY. BEAUTIFUL!

If you're looking for a place for a family or friends getaway this is it!! We had the most wonderful time staying at Jennifer's cabin! We had a group of 10 (6 adults 4 kids) and they thought of everything a large group would need! There's plenty of space for people to sleep, lots of seating (inside and out) and so much to do on the property! They have swimming, a pond for fishing and kayaking, a hot tub, arcade games (a hit with the kids), a separate movie room, and the hiking in the National Forest that borders the property is a plus! It feels like it's own little patch of heaven and we couldn't have asked for a better time. THANK YOU!

Beautiful, Spacious Home with Amazing Amenities and Scenic Location!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay!! The open-concept main area was lovely, and the kitchen nicely stocked. The patio was a highlight, with a gas grill and plenty of seating, and we ate outside almost every meal! The heated pool and hot tub were a huge hit with our crew—being able to enjoy the pool even in cooler months like end of Sept/October is a bonus for sure! The bedrooms were also very comfortable, and we loved that every room had a king bed. The kids loved the bunk area as well!We spent a lot of time just taking in the peaceful surroundings, and relaxing in and out of the house. It’s also conveniently located just 25 minutes from Nashville which made for a scenic drive. This home truly had everything we needed for a perfect getaway. We're looking forward to coming back!!

Unforgettable Reunion and Birthday Bash: The Ultimate Venue with Endless Fun, Spacious Comfort, and Incredible Amenities!

I booked this venue for a friend's reunion and surprise birthday party, and it exceeded all expectations! Jennifer was incredibly attentive to our needs and questions. The pool and hot tub were major highlights. We went hiking and also used the boat at the pond. I was initially concerned that there wouldn’t be enough space since most places I’ve stayed in Brown County have been small, but we had plenty of room for everyone to spread out, and there were numerous activities to enjoy. Between the hiking, boating, pool, fire pit, and game room, everyone was thoroughly entertained and had an amazing time! We also appreciated the kitchen + main area, which made it easy to host our group, featuring two ovens and a bar area and huge table to sit everyone at. I can see how much love and thoughtfulness went into this space. I will definitely book this place again; my wife is even planning to have her girls' trip here next year!

Perfect

We had a wonderful stay. The house is exactly as described and pictured. The pool is huge and all the kids, from 5-18 had a great time swimming. Plenty of pool floats, toys and life jackets for everyone. The hot tub was nice to relax in too. The host thought of everything, k cups and hot chocolate were appreciated as well as the ear plugs for the kids. Thank you again!

Fun for the whole family

What an amazing place! Everyone was happy and had plenty to do. The pool was in use constantly and so was the game room. (We had extremely hot weather.) It’s not always easy to entertain such a variety of ages, but this place did it. The kids (and adults) caught fish, played board games, formed a pie crew, played hide and seek in the dark….the list goes on and on. Every room was comfortable, clean, and well-appointed. Be aware that the kids can still hear house noise when in the bunk beds. The owners thoughtfully provided earplugs and eye masks for each bunk bed. I highly recommend this home.

We had 10 women stay for our low-key Girls Trip. This house is perfect for hanging out and relaxing. The huge dining table allowed us to eat and play games. The theater room was perfect for nightly reality show watching parties. The pool was large and the perfect temperature. We were surprised we even used the hot tub each night in the middle of July. The primary bedroom and bathroom were extremely large and allowed the women staying in the bunk beds to store their suitcases and get ready. The house was pristine, large, and even better than we imagined! Highly recommend this house for a getaway!

Annual Girls Weekend Away

Ten of us women gathered here for our Annual Girls Weekend Away (AGWA). It was a fabulous stay and we took full advantage of the heated pool, hot tub, expansive kitchen and nearby hiking. The game room and theater were fun additions that we didn't use much, but we would have if we brought our kids (the exact reason why we need an annual getaway). We would consider returning, but we change locations every year. We highly recommend for family reunions as well as adult friend gatherings!
