Communication with the host was very accommodating. It was a bit of a drive each day to and from my hiking destinations but i would not necessarily allow that to hinder my decision to return to this cabin in the future."

"Whole house with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths with showers (no tubs). Appears to have bben recently refurbed for Air B-n-B type rental. Nicely stocked kitchen with coffee, spices, etc. Combo washer/dryer is a little small for the number of people it sleeps but they work fine and there were laundry supplies provided.

10/10 Excellent
"This was the second time we stayed at this location. It is easy to find off the highway and close to the college (University of the Cumberlands) where our child is attending. Checked in very late and had to get up pretty early, but it was still worth it. Wish we had more time to relax at the hotel. The breakfast looked great, but like I said, they were in a hurry. I did see that many people were enjoying as the checkout"

10/10 Excellent
"We LOVED the cabin and its private location--both are SUPERB! Our suggestions: (1) Given the cabin's lack of proximity to a grocery store, a few more provided amenities would be greatly appreciated; and(2) The only road to/from the cabin is several miles long and NOT advisable by 2WD vehicle--especially the LONG, STEEP concrete switchback and several of the heavily rutted and steep gravel sections--our front wheel drive Chevy Trax made it, but only with heavy tire/wheel slip (including on the concrete section due to its extreme grade). We would HIGHLY recommend only accessing the cabin with AWD, at a minimum, and ideally 4WD. Beyond those two friendly suggestions, we loved our stay--thanks so much!"
