    This has to be one of the best getaway places in the Daniel Boone forest. We visited in fall and the view from the cabin was amazing. The hosts ensured small details were taken care of and provided everything to make our stay comfortable. Highly recommended!

    An amazing cabin. We absolutely loved it! We had the best time! Very clean and cozy. Great place to stay if u enjoy hiking. The kids had so much fun making smores, catching frogs and playing the board games that were there. Our four year old learned how to play “slap jack” and is obsessed! The dogs loved exploring outside. The sunrises and sunsets r amazing!

    What I liked best was how clean the cabin was. We enjoyed the setting. Sitting on the porch or balcony and looking at nature. Good area for taking walks/hikes. The steps to the bedrooms were a little steep for us (we are a little older). The kitchen was very well equipped. We cooked dinner each night and were able to find all the utensils/pans we needed. The fire pit was nice as well. A good supply of wood (but some pieces needed splitting). Overall an excellent place to stay.

    Everything at Cherokee Cabin was perfect. The first thing we noticed was how clean everything was and how nice it smelled. The hosts thought of everything so you can really come and relax without a worry in the world. They were responsive to questions, often within minutes of texting them. The property is beautiful and the view is amazing. We were cozy and comfortable the whole time and can’t wait to come again. One small note: the stairs up to the bedrooms are very steep and may be difficult for some to navigate, including pets. Our doodle made it up but wasn’t sure how to get back down. Overall, 10 out of ten stars!

    Our stay was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. The views alone were breathtaking, but what truly made this Vrbo special was how thoughtfully everything was put together. Walking in felt less like arriving at a rental and more like stepping into a beautifully furnished, welcoming home.Every detail was clearly considered. We loved flipping through the guestbook, enjoying the board games, and the s’more supplies were such a fun and memorable touch. It’s those little extras that really made the experience feel personal and special.The accommodations were incredibly comfortable and well-stocked. Having extra blankets, firewood ready to go, full-size bottles of shampoo and conditioner, and a fully stocked kitchen made everything easy and stress-free. We never felt like we were missing anything.You can truly tell the owners care about their guests and take pride in creating a warm, inviting space. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy, well-appointed getaway.

The scenery was beautiful. We went hiking a few times as there were things to do in the area. We will come back, hopefully with our kayaks.

It’s the perfect blend of comfort and nature, with all the amenities you could ask for, yet still feels like a peaceful getaway.The cabin was spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated, with a fully equipped kitchen that made it easy to cook meals.

    My stay was fantastic. The property was well stocked with essentials and the view is amazing. Due to recent rain and the levels maintained by USACE, the lake water was at a hight where it was easily seen from the balconies and other parts of the property. Being able to see the water will vary by season and recent weather.The property was clean, albeit the decor was a bit cluttered and there wasn't a lot of space to keep your personal items during the stay without moving things around a bit. I also would have liked there to be shades on the upstairs windows, but I just opened the closet doors and that sufficed. I felt very safe and wasn't bothered at all by animals or the neighbors. There are some other houses nearby, but are about 200 yards down a steep hill.The road up to the cabin is very steep and gravel. Definitely come prepared for that if there is a chance of snow or rain.AC was great and the shower, while tiny, had solid water temperature.Overall a fantastic stay and I hope to be back!

    Our family stayed here over a weekend. The kids loved it! My husband and I had one room and our 3 teens each had their own bed. The kids loved making smores and roasting hotdogs at the fire pit. My husband loved how peaceful it is and I loved the views of the lake from the balconies. The cabin was clean, cozy, and inviting, and the host left thoughtful touches. (My kids were pretty excited about the Ale 8s). We will definitely be back.

    Place was just as described & even better. The washer & dryer was a definite plus. Walked on paths by the cabin. I just can’t say enough about the hosts. They definitely go above & beyond to make sure you have everything you need. I have been to quite a few cabins & none had things like this one did. It was supplied with everything from laundry detergent to syrup for your pancakes. Absolutely loved it!!! Thank you again for everything!!!

    This place is so cute! Very cottagey and comfortable. It's clear the owners take a lot of pride and care in the upkeep. Everything seemed fresh and spotless when we walked in, and everything we needed was at hand right where we'd expect to find it. Chairs were comfortable, beds were comfy with excellent quality sheets that were soft and cool, not hot and scratchy. The numerous decks and balconies had some wasps around in the afternoon heat, but in the evening and when the weather cooled they went to sleep or flew away wherever it is they go and were no longer a bother. I imagine if you're considering a cabin in the woods, you can probably cope with nature. (No spiders to be seen tho, which I was really happy about!) Everything I forgot to bring was already there when I looked. The hosts were nice and had great communication. I would definitely stay again.and had great communication
