Beautiful property

The property was beautiful and the owners made aure to let us know they were close if we needed anything. The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Plenty of room for our kids and dog to run around and an awesome little pond for us to kayak on (kayaks provided by owners). Would recomend to anyone that enjoys peace and nature!

Multi Family Vaca

This was the perfect spot for our family vacation. We rented all 3 cabins on the property and it got us perfectly. The cabins were clean and very cute. My only recommendation is that if you don’t want to live out of your suitcase bring hangers. There are no dressers but closet space, if you brought hangers, to hang your clothes.

Clean, peaceful setting

The pond really makes this location very beautiful & peaceful. We enjoyed watching the birds land on the pond & other wildlife pass through. The cabin was exceptionally clean, clean, clean. Tommi went above & beyond by not only providing a well stocked kitchen with coffee, sugar, spices & even peanut butter, but she was also very attentive to our questions and requests! The only thing I would change, would be to replace the king bed mattress.

Beautiful cabin in the woods

We really enjoyed our stay here. Our dogs absolutely loved the outdoors and the pond. There was nice hiking not too far away to enjoy as well. It has a nice kitchen in the cabin to handle all the basic cooking you could need to do. Would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful cabin and location

Stayed here during quilt week with quilting friends. The cabin was spotless and cute as can be. Perfect for three girlfriends. We enjoyed the peace and quiet after the crowds at the quilt show. Saw lots of deer on the drive and a wild turkey took an early morning stroll through the yard! Great place to stay!

Lovely getaway

We rented this cabin to stay somewhere nice and quiet while we explored the Shawnee National Forest. Tommi's cabin definitely delivered. Peaceful, full of wildlife and comfortable lodging. Our one year old son loved running around on the property and swimming in the pond. My husband and I enjoyed the kayaks and just the general calmness the pond and the surrounding atmosphere provided. I’d definitely recommend the stay to anyone.

Relaxing get away

I stayed for the weekend with my mother and her small dog. The cabin is cozy and we loved the property. Though it rained most of the time we were there, we still had a relaxing time playing cards and getting some goodies from The chocolate factory that is close by. Dobby our dog loved walking the grounds (even in the rain!). Hoping to come back in the summer to take advantage of the beautiful pond. Definitely recommend.

Weekend getaway

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin. This is a great place to get away from everything and spend time with family. The cabin was very clean. Kitchen was well stocked. The view of the pond was gorgeous! The host has a well stocked cabin with many things we didn't even think about like a playpen for the little one and fans for all the rooms and even a cute little dog to play with! The only things I think could've made the stay nicer would've been a hottub, wi-fi and more sunlight as it rained most of the stay. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Easter hiking

We just left the best low key weekend ever! We cooked at the cabin and picnicked our way through through the Shawnee forest. I had a bunch of stops mapped out and we opted to enjoy time at the cabin over more hiking. Our daughter had her first solo kayak experience on the pond and is hooked. The guys fished and everyone enjoyed the fire pit. Thanks for providing such a perfect spot for a long weekend!

Peace and tranquility

We decided to take a short little getaway after our busy Thanksgiving. Tommi’s place was fantastic. We hiked two different trails at Shawnee national forest and eight in the town of gondola for two meals. The property is very peaceful and quiet, and we look forward to visiting again, it will be great for a couples retreat weekend or another family gathering . Wry nice cabin on a beautiful piece of property. Great proximity to many other things around if you want to venture out more. Comfortable beds well thought out layout. I loved all the big windows made outside beauty wonderfully visible from inside cabin. Tommi is a lovely host.
