Great Getaway!!

This place is awesome. Super quiet and peaceful. They have a ton of DVDs and board games to play, which helps with the WiFi not being the best for watching things like Netflix. Pretty decent phone signal though, so I just used my hotspot. Overall awesome, and Amanda was an amazing host with great communication. Will be back!!

Perfect Hideaway

Short trip for a relaxing weekend before the Holiday Craziness happens this week. It was exactly what the Dr. ordered. Unplug purposely from most of the world, hiked a little, watched football all weekend and hung out in the hot tub. We loved this location and will be staying again.

Perfect return stay

This was our second trip to this property. It's in a perfect location for access to all that Natural Bridge/RRG has to offer. The cabin was very clean, beds are comfy, and the option to purchase firewood was really nice. Would highly recommend staying here!

Awesome place to stay

We had a great stay, and my only complaint is that I wish we could stay there longer. The property is exactly as described, very cute and clean. The views were amazing and the hot tub was a treat. We would give it 15 out of 10 stars if we could.

Perfect Cabin Great Location

We loved this cabin. The location felt isolated but was 5 minutes from everything. Cabin felt new and very clean. You can stargaze and even see the Milky Way. Host was responsive and accommodating. Be sure to check out Toad's Bar and Grill just a couple of minutes away.

My family of four enjoyed our stay here. Place was nice and clean. The beds were comfortable. Definitely a nice little hide away that was quiet and relaxing. Close to tons of hiking spots, which we enjoyed as well.
