Everything was just as described. The hot tub and outdoor areas were great. We enjoyed the hammock, fire pit, and grill. We will definitely consider this place in the future.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The owners were very helpful in every way and the breakfast pastries were AMAZING! Also enjoyed the outdoor furniture and hot tub! Couldn't have asked for anything better! Thanks again for a wonderful stay!
We enjoyed staying at this cozy, secluded cabin with its comfortable and tidy furnishings. The chalkboard welcome, fresh eggs, and coffee were a nice surprise. The bed in the loft was heavenly--I slept 11 hours one night. We loved soaking in the hot tub after a long day, counting shooting stars, watching bats, and listening to coyotes and owls.
We really enjoyed our stay. We were both under the weather but we didn’t know that would be the case when we booked. We didn’t do a lot but we got some rest. It was a bummer that the fire place did not work but it was ok. Also we couldn’t figure out how to stop the pump on the hot tub but again it was no big deal. Thanks for a great stay.
Very quaint and cozy cabin in the woods! Great hospitality and communication with the Talley’s! We will recommend it to friends!

Very peaceful place. We wanted to get away from our crazy busy life for our honeymoon and we got exactly that. Very clean place as well. Hot tub was amazing. Very pleased. Will definitely consider going back for our anniversary!
We could really tell the Talley's care about providing guests with a great experience. The hot tub was clean and hot, firewood was stacked and ready, and there were even farm fresh eggs in the fridge! We had an excellent stay and loved getting away from the busyness of life!
This is such an adorable cabin tucked away on a hillside. There are great trails on the property and it is so quiet and peaceful. The owners made us feel so welcome and the cabin had the most comfortable beds! This is a great place to stay for some R&R.
This cabin is all that and more! You will not be disappointed- if you are looking for comfort in the middle of no where to reconnect with whom or whatever - this is the place! Book your trip today!
We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay in cabin 2. Every detail was absolutely amazing. The owners have done a great job describing and taking care of the property. Great privacy while still feeling safe and secure. We would definitely recommend this property.
The cabin was georgous. It was very clean. Steve and Dana made sure we had everything we needed right there in the cabin including breakfast, which was very delicious. We loved the area. It was such a beautiful drive to get to this peaceful Oasis. We will definitely be going back for many future stays.
The cabin was clean and comfortable. Lots of things already provided, like snacks and toiletries. The hot tub was much enjoyed, we walked the trails, and enjoyed a campfire. There were recommendations on things to do and places to eat in neighboring towns. We definitely recommend, and would absolutely stay again!
The owners did an amazing job with the creation of this property. Everything was done right. It is secluded. Peaceful. Quiet and you have everything you need. Just bring yourself and some food. 5 Star.

Perfect getaway weekend.
We loved every moment at this charming cabin... Hot tubbing while stargazing. Cooking out (with a fully equipped kitchen!). Watching a movie on those comfy recliners. Visiting beautiful state parks - we hiked at Dale Hollow and Cummins Mill Falls, both about 40 minutes from the cabin. Resting on the cozy bed in the loft, with sooo many pillows to choose from. Feasting on the pre-made breakfasts - a blueberry croissant casserole, sausage and egg casserole, several eggs, and plenty of juice and coffee, the perfect amount of breakfasts for the weekend. We seldom return to places we visit; there's so much to see in this wonderful world... but I think we'll be back to Talley's. :)

I thought i reserved a different cabin so when we realized we would have to climb the narrow staircase it wasn't ideal for us. The cabin was nice and clean. Breakfast was provided but it consisted of fresh eggs which we didnt cook. (No butter or anything to go with it) i didnt know i should bring. They had a basket of pre bought cereal bowls (we had not milk), chips, and various other snacks. The hot tub had a cover that didnt fit properly so spiders and a little dirt was in it so we didnt get in.
