Sweet place

It was a great getaway spot. It looks a little sketchy when you get close to the property but its definitely worth it for a secluded getaway.

Short getaway with no issues

We didn't have any issues with the property itself, clean and everything was working. I had messaged about the coffee maker and never got a response (it's drip btw). The tub in the pictures is now a large shower, which we actually preferred. Lots of hiking near by and hot tub were our big selling points.

Peaceful

We only stayed 1 night now wishing I had booked 2 nights for the area. The cabin is a cute little place. My only complaint was the bedding. Take your own pillows a mattress pad if you have back issues. Otherwise I loved every minute of my stay. If I'm ever back in this area I would rent the same cabin again.

Updated cabin in a lovely setting

My husband and I had a very enjoyable night’s stay at the Old Moonshiner’s Cabin. We were surprised by its charming new paint job and the spacious shower that overlooks (if you want it to) the beautiful wooded surroundings. We would’ve liked updated instructions for the fireplace, since the ones from the QR code didn’t load. everything else

Decent cabin

It was good for one night. We had to change cabins because our hot tub didn’t work and thought we were getting a tub inside the cabin but didn’t. Shower was nice in the first cabin perfect for two people but second cabin was tiny shower. Couch was broke in second cabin.

Weekend Away

The cabin was nice and just what i needed. This particular cabin is right on the road to the other cabins so there is not as much privacy as expected. The rooms were clean and the bed was comfortable.

Nice, cozy cabin!

It’s a nice little cabin! It was very cozy and we were comfortable there for our wedding anniversary. We were surprised when we got there, it has been updated since the photos of the listing were taken. There is now a shower rather than the spa tub in the bedroom, which is lovely. The shower steam spreads throughout the entire cabin though. The ceiling fan in the bedroom also doesn’t work, which allowed the steam to sit for longer. “Basic soaps” are hand soap and dish soap, so bring your own shower soaps! We were hoping for hotel like shampoo or body wash to be included in basic soaps. Overall though a very nice stay in a great little cluster of small cabins. We will be back for sure!

Pictures are misleading.

We had a wonderful stay. However the pictures and description of the cabin are not accurate. They don’t have a jacuzzi tub as stated. When we got in shower there was a dirty washcloth hanging. We had a nice relaxing weekend . Just wish we got what we thought we were paying for.

Great getaway cabin

Exactly as advertised and a perfect cabin getaway for 2 plus a dog. Great spot out in the woods, perfect for a long weekend. Host was very quick to respond and fix the small maintenance issue we experienced (shower didn't shut off but was resolved very quickly). 100% would recommend and book again.
