Romantic getaway
We had an incredible stay from start to finish! I had let the hosts know that we were coming for a little anniversary trip, upon arrival we were met with rose petals from the front door to the bedroom! Talk about going above and beyond! The property was private, safe, and peaceful! There was so much for us to do we almost didn't want to even leave to explore any of the other amazing outdoor activities to do nearby! We enjoyed the axe throwing, pool, darts, and archery! It was pretty great to start and end our days soaking in the hot tub as well!!! Overall the place was just absolutely beautiful, inside and out! The hosts thought about everything you could possibly need! Thank you for letting us enjoy this beautiful slice of tranquility! We will definitely be back!

Lovely Stay in Nature
We had a wonderful mini-honeymoon at this location. The added amenities were great! The location is very close to town for groceries, but set in the woods enough to feel remote. The host is great with communication!! A tip for others (so you don't end up having to drive to get service like me 🙃): be sure to either write down or save the check in code/directions before you arrive, as we didn't have cell phone reception to get it once we arrived and had to drive to get service so I could get the code. The host provided it the morning of, so it was 100% just me not thinking ahead😆. Also we enjoyed all you can eat crab legs at The Fire Pit at Wildwood Cove, about a 15 minute drive from the property.

Fantastic Property
The house is very cozy and inviting, and the property surrounding it is absolutely beautiful as well. We absolutely loved exploring the nature trail and seeing the cave as well. Having the wildlife come up so close to us during our stay was wonderful too. We absolutely enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it to others.

Cute little retreat close to lake
The place is secluded but close to activities. We used it as a home base for kayaking. Visites talequah and listened to stories in the square. It's in the woods so expect some bugs but overall was a nice quiet stay. Jessica is very responsive.

We absolutely enjoyed our time here! We stayed 3 nights which allowed us to enjoy all of the amenities! The cave has a beautiful natural spring, the hiking trail was well kept, the hot tub was up to maintenance, there were several activities, house keeping rules were easy and clear, and the host answers back very quickly. She also emailed us about a storm in advance and how/where to take shelter. I overall enjoyed the experience and the host was easy going! We will likely be back in the future!

Very Unique Property!
The house was comfortable, warm, and inviting... but the real treat was the outdoors! The hot tub was in perfect condition, lots of outdoor games to play, access to hiking trails and a very unique cave with a running creek creating the most relaxing sound environment. This property really reminded me of my childhood in the Tahlequah area!

Quick family getaway
This little cabin in the woods was exactly what my family needed to rest and re-charge! The cabin had everything we needed to grill out, and make s’mores! The hot tub was extremely clean, the cave was a huge hit with my kids, and the beds were comfy! We walked the nature trail and enjoyed the scenery, plus my son found a cool fossil (the highlight of his trip)! We will definitely be coming back! The host was amazing at communicating with me and went the extra mile to make sure our stay was perfect! 10/10 recommend!
