Amazing!

Getting to stay here, hosted by Sarah, was amazing. The location is beautiful and so private. It was the perfect little getaway for our family. Sarah is a fabulous host who left no stone unturned in making sure the property was perfect for our stay. Even down to little details like multiple charger cables in each room, the milk frother to accompany your morning coffee, the s’mores packs, and more were such special touches. They also went out of their way to help us out when we had a little car trouble. I’d totally stay here again in a heartbeat! Go visit the lookout tower asap!

What a great find!

We loved everything about our short stay in the tower! The views, the sunset and the stars were amazing and so peaceful.It feels you are on top of your own hill overlooking the valleys left and right, with great hang out spots outside, downstairs and upstairs on the balcony where the sunset is at it’s best.The owners made us feel very welcome and taken care of, with the little details in the house and all the amenities that were there. Wish we had more time to explore the area, so we definitely will be back!

A beautiful spot!!!!!

Wow, what a dreamy place!!! Its was a bit of a "splurge" for our budget and worth every penny. The property manager is incredibly helpful and responsive and provides you with so many special amenities. The kids caught their first fishes in the pond! The BEST unexpected bonus was finding a bunch of geodes on the gravel lot!!!! The kids loved finding them and then spreading them out for others to find. A great stay for a family!

Wonderful getaway to the tower

We were looking for a nice, serene vacation spot away from the hustle of daily life and we found it! Really neat spot located near both moaning and Mercer caverns as well as downtown angels camp and Murphys. Very clean and comfortable. The hosts were quick to respond to any questions we had. Not to mention, we watched the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets From the third floor. Our young son loved the property. I have already recommended this spot to family and friends!

Wonderful stay

A little tricky to find so I’m glad we first went in the daylight to find our way. But once we were there, it’s a beautiful place with a great location for checking out the stars at night and very secluded and quiet.
