I've stayed in dozens of vrbo homes and this one is Excellent! It had everything you could ask for and more. I spent a week here with my husband, father, and aunt and uncle. We were all very comfortable and cooked most meals in the fully stocked kitchen. We loved spending time just watching the river and wildlife. It was an amazing week! Would definitely stay here again.

The property is very nice, the stream in the back of the property is great for hanging out with the family. Deer everywhere, so be careful when you have to drive. Overall a great location to detach from the everyday grind.

Our family group could not have been happier with Happy Jacks! The view was absolutely gorgeous and when we weren't out exploring we enjoyed the outdoor area with the amazing view and cooked several meals in the well equipped kitchen. We saw deer large groups of deer each evening to the delight of all of our group!

Wonderful place to visit. The biggest issue I have is not in the home. It was wonderful.The issue was with the VRBO additional service charges. I will never use them again due to that fact.I have been concerned about the Vrbo rates for a few years but this one was a backbreaker. I will use you again.

My family (seven out of eight) had a wonderful stay at Happy Jack's Cabin. The cabin had everything we needed and more! The king beds were so comfortable and the decor in every room was tastefully done. Happy Jack's Cabin is in a gated community on a peaceful, private lot with the river flowing right by the cabin. We all enjoyed the wrap around porch and the game room was a big hit for us four adults and my three grandchildren. The cabin looks exactly as shown on the websites. Really can't say enough about this beautiful cabin (inside and out)! I would definitely rent again! Aileen is an excellent host/owner! Happy Jack's Cabin will definitely make your stay happy!!

The home and the community were great. This was our second year booking at Happy Jacks. The hosts are kind, helpful and make staying at the property a breeze. We drive from Florida— the facilities are well worth the drive. Everything was like it was presented in the advertisement, maybe even better. All of the furnishings were high class with a rustic flare. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was stocked so we could prepare nice meals for our group. The resort facilities were plentiful. Thank you for a second great stay at Happy Jacks
