Near Garden of the Gods: Home w/ Fire Pit, Hot Tub
10/10 Excellent
"Property was nice - we really enjoyed the back porch! You are in the country - we saw a few skunks wandering around as we drove in, but they didn’t bother us. The house met the description and fitted our needs well! The kitchen was fairly basic, but it did have most things we needed. The only thing lacking was hot pads - this might be nice to add."
"Cabin was very clean with many extras like coffee, coffee filters, powdered Cremora and sugar packets. Refrigerator actually had many types of condiments and host supplied a dozen eggs.!And instructions were clear cut had a load of wood, kindling, and firestarter material.Very peaceful and quiet and was perfect for just sitting back and relaxing, and doing all the things you like to do, but aren’t too busy in your normal life!"
"This was the perfect home base for our family while visiting Garden of the Gods and the Shawnee National Forest. Everything was exactly has stated and shown in photos - just even larger than expected! The home was wonderful, and we appreciated everything provided including coffee and firewood for the firepit! Thank you for sharing your home with us!"
"I gave 5 stars across the board even for cleanliness, keep in mind this is a secluded cabin in the woods. I've seen other reviews... nature will do it's own thing. The location is amazing for venturing out to Garden of the God's. We got to enjoy seeing deer while sitting on the front porch in the morning. Full of beauty and serenity."
"Our family really loved the house and property. It was an excellent basecamp for surrounding hiking excursions. The property itself with the open floor plan, prairie trail, pond and fire pit really let us melt away hours in the evening as our legs recovered from hiking. The house a great feeling of privacy and safety so the kids could run around outside and quiet prairie walks could recharge the mind. The house itself had modern amenities, and was easy to manage. Cellular service isnt great in the region so we made sure to plan our travel routes ahead of time using the wifi in the house and download offline as there are lots of roads with twists and turns. Not having cell service was actually something we embraced as a freeing constraint... unplugged from the wider world as we stepped outside of the house Internet. We stopped in Harrisburg to get groceries on the way in as there are no well stocked closer options I obvious. The garden of the gods outpost has several small things if you forgot something basic. Really appreciated all the thoughtful small things, local soaps in bathroom, bags set, chairs outside, lots of towels, check in texts...We would love to come back some day. Everyone loved it."
