The cabin is fantastic! Super clean, cozy, very quiet property, that is close to town. Leah was very easy to deal with, super sweet, great communicator, and even let us check in a little early too. We would stay here again if the opportunity arises. I would recommend this place to anyone!

This was a beautiful place to stay! Lots of amenities and things to do. So thankful for the host, Leah, and her wonderful communication and guestbook that had all the instructions and answers we need! Would definitely come back to stay in the future, the vrbo was cozy and homey, which is exactly what my husband and I were looking for! Literally no complaints at all, felt safe and we had the freedom to do what we wanted at the vrbo, whether it be get in the hot tub, walk on the property, or just sit inside and spend time together.

Exactly what we were needing

We were in town for a friend’s wedding and preferred not to stay in a hotel. This cabin was exactly what we were looking for. Clean, comfortable, and so peaceful! Leah was extremely accommodating and lovely to chat with. Would definitely stay again if we need a place while visiting our friends.

Heavenly Hideaway

Overall, just amazing! Beautiful, quaint, quiet slice of paradise. The hot tub was the selling point, especially after tackling the endless number of trails in the area. If you want the most in privacy, peace and quiet, this is the place for you. The host was extremely accommodating and wanted nothing more than our happiness. We'll definitely be back!!

This cabin is a piece of perfection tucked away in a perfect spot. The cabin is very clean, comfortable, and give a relaxing home feeling. It has mix of privacy, and at the sametime its open and not conjested. During the day the sun warms and lights the cabin just right inside and out. If you close the blinds the cabin feels like movie night during the day. The hot tub on the deck, and the lights inside & out gives off the ultimate vide. This makes you not want to leave the cabin. Leah is a GREAT host and has the cabin setup to the point. Shebeven left a bottle of local wine, that set the stay.You are not disturbed, and the pictures of it. Really dont do this cabin any justice. I will be making this a regular stay location to get away.

A perfect place for a getaway

This property is exactly as advertised. It is quiet, but not isolated. You are close to lots of hiking. The cabin has everything you will need for a lovely stay. A word of advice: bring in all your groceries! It’s a ways away from the nearest store. And once you’re there you won’t want to leave anyway. Positives I wasn’t expecting: strong WiFi; really good water pressure; hot tub and fire pit; well thought out kitchen essentials. Negatives: can’t think of any!

This place has a great location with a large yard surrounded by woods . It is on a gravel road off 33 but very close to Moulton downtown. It is a new cabin with unique setup with washer that dries , a convection oven with a cooktop . A lot packed into a small space. Concrete floor with rugs that might not be such a great idea with dogs. I rolled them all up before bringing in the dogs(service dog training). Lots of hiking nearby in Bankhead Forest and Sipsey River area. We didn't get to enjoy much outside as the heat and humidity was over 100 but it would be great in the fall. Overall an excellent place and we will rent it again.

I don’t even know where to start. Literally can’t say enough good things! I usually tent camp while hiking in the area, but wanted a place for the cold & rainy months. My dogs travel with me & finding this gem that is pet friendly made me so HAPPY! It is absolutely perfect in every way! You are right in the middle of the forest & there are so many awesome trails within 20 minutes- that’s initially what got me there. With rainy days in the forecast I began to research the area more. You are 20 minutes from Decatur, just less than an hour from Huntsville & Jasper & there are SO MANY quaint small towns nearby. Lots of history, art, museums, architecture, shopping & places to buy local goods! The cabin was super clean! Leah, the host is hands down the best! She really went out of her way to ensure everything is top notch, super responsive and offered so much helpful information. The cabin is incredibly well stocked & has so many extra amenities. The owners love this place & it truly shows throughout each room with the meaningful details. The property & grounds are very well kept and groomed. Awesome hot shower with great water pressure, comfy bed and super soft sheets & blankets! It was a major decision each night on whether we wanted to enjoy the views around the fire pit or soak in the hot tub. Very quiet, peaceful & a great place to disconnect then reconnect. Look for ducks on the pond and be sure to check out the view behind the home up the hill. Definitely will be back!
