My wife and I and our five year-old son were fortunate enough to stay at this cabin for a couple days while on spring break. To say that the cabin was perfect and the hosts were gracious and accommodating would be an understatement. They went out of their way to make sure our son felt welcome on their property. Burrito the burro was an absolute delight. The cabin is super close to many great hiking/exploration spots in Shawnee National Forest. Our two days went by super fast and we’re already looking forward to returning. Thanks folks! ##### Brad M.

The hosts are wonderful, caring people who have a well equipped gorgeous lodge that has everything. The Family live nearby and sincerely care about us and great conversation. Our Family will return soon! Thanks for a great week. We are their first guests. Fun and relaxing! ##### Robert M.

Communication with Tasha was easy and informative. Coffee out on the deck overlooking the lake was perfection. Bring shampoo/conditioner/body wash as that’s not available. Otherwise, lots of amenities. Would stay here again. ##### Laura J.

If you're looking for peace, beauty, or esthetics... absolutely wonderful. It was just my girlfriend and i for valentines weekend and the property owner had flowers, chocolates (really good ones!), Hershey kisses (everywhere! Lol) and it was just wonderful in all aspects... and buritto visited us the first night, and s/he was so freaking cool... we were both amazed that s/he didn't smell (at all) and just wanted pets... nuzzled with my girlfriend for a bit, then went about his/ her business... def will reopen to this cabin in the future! just wonderful ##### Jarrod S.

I loved the decor, the hot tub and the locations outside. It ended up being stressful though because apparently we missed the fact that if more than 2 people come, you have to pay an additional fee per person per night. We assumed if the place had 3 king beds, it slept at least 6\. Apparently not so don’t miss that detail. I guess they were watching us because I woke up Saturday morning to missed calls, voicemails, texts and emails saying if we didn’t pay for the extra people they were going to stop by, it was very stressful and unnerving and we wouldn’t have booked it if we had know how expensive it would be. I’m still trying to recover from the extra money I ended up having to spend in the middle of my “relaxing” girls weekend. I realize it was my fault for not reading the fine print but it really affected our stay. We also walked into the cabin to find a dying mouse on the floor and had to remove it ourselves. There were some wasps inside also. I also had a hard time getting the code for arrival because Vrbo would not load the message with the information. ##### Alyssa C.

I had flowers sent to the lodge for my girlfriend and they were handled with care. We were greeted by the most affectionate, cutest kitten (Hers-berry).
