Perfection

The cabin was so clean and well stocked with everything you could need. The host was very quick to respond and was very accommodating with an early check in. Took my mom and aunt that are 76 and 78 for a girls trip. They raved and raved about the cabin. Will definitely book again. Hated to leave.

Lovely cabin. My 2 daughters and I had a very relaxing, comfortable visit. Little River canyon is beautiful with many trails and views. Wished we could have stayed longer and enjoyed the peace and quiet.

Cozy Cabin

We had a wonderful stay! The cabin was so clean and thoughtfully stocked. Had we forgotten anything we likely would've found what we needed already there. All the beds were comfy, appliances worked well, and the a/c kept us nice and cool (the living area does get warm quickly when using the oven/stove). The fire pit was great, and we loved sitting on the porch at night listening to all the sounds of nature we miss in the city. We loved exploring the falls closeby and not being too far from town. We would recommend this cabin highly to anyone staying in the area, and we hope to be back!

One of the cleanest and most well appointed rentals I’ve ever rented!

I am a frequent VRBO renter so I have high expectations. We were fortunate to rent for a long weekend. Easy to get to. Check in was easy. Great interaction with Host before and during stay. Beds were comfy. Kitchen well appointed and we were impressed with all the extras! The loft was so nice but just be aware if you have bad knees you might want to call dibs on one of the main floor bedrooms! It’s doable and wouldn’t deter us from staying again though! Thank you for sharing this sweet cabin. Warm and inviting and exactly what we needed. We will be back again.

Perfect Clean Cozy Cabin

This cabin is equipped with more than you will need during the stay. Sit on the front porch in rocking chair and watching the turkeys come to the front porch. They are tamed. The cabin was extremely clean and well maintained. I was impressed. Property Manager responded to a question I had within a few minutes. There is a deer feeder in the woods eye sight. Did not get up early enough to enjoy. We went hiking. The cabin was Cozy and close enough to perfect for me! If we ever go back to Fort Payne, AL, I will be staying at this cabin. Perfect location. Close enough to town but far enough in country for peaceful relaxation. I Highly Recommend this cabin.

Love It!

Absolute great property to rent! Cabin is very clean inside and well maintained. This isn't your typical rental as it's very homley. There are extra comfortable blankets to sit on the couch with while the electric fireplace is on in front of you. There is a Kureig with coffee pods, sugar, sweetener and creamers. There was numerous spices that are in the kitchen and we left more upon departing. There is a dishwasher with washing pods and also a washer / dryer with laundry pods. Beds are very comfortable as is the couch. There is a brand new grill outside. There is a Roku TV which allowed us to watch a couple of NFL playoff games in the evening. Just an all around great place. The cabin is located about 1 mile from Little Canyon and about 7 from Desoto State Park both of which have great hiking. We will definitely be back in the future.
