About this property

Cherokee way At Avenwood Cabins

Find your inner Cherokee in this totally secluded couple's cabin! The popular Cherokee Way getaway cabin offers the soft ambience of a Native American lodge. This cabin offers a full kitchen and eating area so you can make that special meal, if you so choose. The living area has a plush loveseat couch and Roku Smart TV where you can relax and catch up on your next Netflix binge. Featured in the bedroom is a gas fireplace and jacuzzi, which adds to the romantic ambiance you are looking for in your getaway. In the bedroom, you will find a memory foam queen sized bed facing a rustic gas fireplace. In the corner, we have a jacuzzi tub for those times when you just want to relax inside. If you would rather surround yourself with the lush greenery of WNF, step out onto the screened-in porch and relax in our luxury, state-of-the art Viking/Balboa hot tub while listening to the songs of the forest.

Avenwood cabins provide getaways in the beautiful Wayne National Forest. Our woodland escape ensures relaxation while providing modern amenities. We also know how much you miss that sweet fur-babies at home, so we have provided a pet-friendly environment to accommodate your furry friend.

Please ensure upon booking you leave your email and phone number. We offer keyless entry for your stay, so we will contact you with the phone number and email address provided to communicate self check-in instructions.

Relaxing Post-Christmas Retreat

It was great to stay in this cabin once again having spent a stay back in 2018. The cabin was very clean and the hot tub was the best part. We hope to come back again!

Lacking comfortable couch

For the most part, our stay was good. Very nice setting! It was warm, quiet and cozy.The windows inside the cabin were filthy and the couch was super uncomfortable and it was very hard to get out of it. My husband and i both had spinal fusions so we really struggled to get off the loveseat

Very cute

The cabin was great! Very clean. The bed is a little squeaky, but not a huge deal. Did not get a chance to use the Jacuzzi, but the hot tub was amazing! The road that leads to the cabin was kind of an eyesore with all the trailers and junkyard, but other than that, everything was perfect!

Cherokee way

It was really nice! We stayed in eagles nest two years ago and decided to come back and do another cabin. The junkyard you have to drive through is a bit off and scary lol but the overall location where the cabins sit is really nice ! Thank you!

Our stay

The main reason for us going to the cabin was for the hot tub and jacuzzi. The hot tub was awesome! The jacuzzi didn’t go so well. The jets sprayed way up towards the windows so we couldn’t use it. My fiancé has a really bad back that’s why we wanted both amenities. When we woke up the next morning our backs hurt from the bed. My back never hurts but that bed definitely hurt me. My fiancé was in excruciating pain from the bed causing us to leave a day early. Would love a refund if that’s even possible.
