Beautiful cabin, great location

We had a great time at the cozy cabin at Little River Canyon. Everything was very clean, and it had everything we needed. Also, the location was great for what we wanted to see, near Little River Canyon National Preserve, Desoto State Park, and Cherokee Rock village.

We enjoyed peace and quiet in this home. You feel secluded when you're in the cabin but close drive to things to do. We had a visit each evening from a bunny in the back yard. The cabin was clean and well stocked. We did have some minor issues with the TV, but the owner took care of it without us even asking This place might be especially good if you like adventure sports such as rock climbing. The owner has a place close by that you can book active adventures. This place has something for everyone.

Perfect place for the holidays!

We rented the property over the Christmas holiday, and we couldn't have been happier with it! The cabin is lovely and cozy, with everything you need for a relaxing vacation, and the scenery is gorgeous. There are two overlooks an easy walk away that show the valley, and staying in the cabin felt like living in a tree house. It was warm, welcoming, and exactly what we needed! Will definitely rent again.

Property well kept, The area where the beautiful home is located, please be prepared to climb mountains after mountains so hopefully your in a vehicle thats able to make it up these high mountains, there's no turning around in the middle of the road or you just might fall over a cliff.. At night please have someone with you at all times because finding your way back is a hell of an adventure in the pitch black Dark.... Good Luck!!!

This cabin provided the perfect escape from urban life and everyday stress. The location in Little Canyon, Alabama, is truly exceptional, nestled amid the stunning beauty of Lookout Mountain and the Little River Canyon National Preserve. The silence here is profound—far quieter than anything I've experienced in the city—and I quickly grew to love the peaceful stillness that allowed me to truly unwind. The home itself is wonderful, with a natural, rustic charm that perfectly complements the mountainous surroundings. From the moment we arrived, the cozy interior felt welcoming and thoughtfully designed for relaxation. We enjoyed the beautiful wooded views from every window, and the fresh mountain air was invigorating. The cabin blended seamlessly with its environment, using natural materials that enhanced the authentic "mountainside" feel. Hiking trails, breathtaking overlooks, and cascading waterfalls are just a short drive away, making it easy to explore the area's natural wonders. Evenings on the deck were magical, listening to the sounds of nature as the stars came out brilliantly overhead. The kitchen was well-equipped, and everything we needed to stay comfortable was provided. It a perfect getaway for couples or families. I look forward to returning again one day.

Outstanding place and location!

What a great place! Highly recommend. We rented this cabin to enjoy some family time with our daughter, son and our daughter-in-law. Never been in the area before but what a great surprise! The cabin was clean, fully stocked and definitely warm and cozy with modern appliances and very comfortable beds. The area is beautiful with waterfalls everywhere and incredible views around every corner. The cabin is located on a road rarely traveled, adding to the peacefulness of the stay. Israel, the owner, was great in answering our questions, treated us like VIP's and enjoyed filling us in on the area and things to see and do. A highlight was learning more about True Adventure Sports and all they offer in the area too. With insight from them we got to see kayakers shooting the waterfalls and climbers rappelling cliffs. Overall, a great trip, thanks to the location, cabin, owner and time as a family!
