"Becky let us know the cabin was ready early, but we arrived around 9pm. Cute, clean, and had all the essentials, along with coffee makings, condiments, and bath care.We texted them on Saturday evening about a wasp nest above the hot tub and seating in the back deck. They had it taken care of within 30 minutes so we could enjoy our evening. Thanks y’all for a perfect stay."

"The property was perfect for our needs (wedding party with multiple rooms needed). The cabins were smaller than I envisioned based on the pictures but the property is designed for folks to hang outside around the fire pit and grill, etc. So, it worked for us. Becky was very responsive to the only issue we encountered (wasps), which were definitely out of their control. Overall, things were GREAT and I would recommend for others to stay! It was 10-15 minutes from Natural Bridge State Park and close to many other area attractions. We had a great visit!"

"This quirky and cute container cabin was what we needed for a quick weekend getaway. They provided everything we needed to hide away for a few days. The place was clean, comfortable, and cozy. The outdoor area is a great place to hangout, with a fire pit, chairs, and a hot tub (remember to wear shoes out there). There are some neighboring units on the way in, but out of sight from the cabin. Stock up on supplies and prepare to spend a few days hanging out, or establish as a camp while you explore the wonderful RRG area."
