*MUST climb stairs, steps and ladders* Adults are best suited for this retreat due to stairs and ladders to access the cabin and bedroom, we are not set up for children. We do have bugs, snakes, small rodents and other wildlife, being surrounded by the forest-be prepared and aware of this prior to your booking. Parking-please park in the gravel only and be aware no of surroundings when pulling in and out please. Water is pumped up the hill-do not overuse water please. Septic-we are on septic, do not flush or put anything down the drains besides water and toilet paper we provide.

This authentic log cabin is a part of our family history going back to the 1800's; we recently re-located it and had it moved to our property. We built on a loft, kitchen bathroom and separate treehouse/outdoor living space.

We do have 78 acres in total : also on the property we have our personal home along with another short term rental/Maxwell Mountain Cottage (VRBO #795626) we have been hosting for 6+ years. This log cabin is located halfway up our MAIN gravel driveway; the driveway up is fairly steep but it's our daily driveway and will be shared with others. When you pull off the main gravel driveway, you will have your own gravel parking area.

    This place is a amazing. The cabin and grounds are clean, and well-cared for, and tucked deep into the woods so you have total privacy. The photos on VRBO and Expedia don't do it justice. It's incredibly charming. The property managers were really sweet and helpful too. The rustic fire place inside the cabin was one of my favorite features. I am so happy we settled on this cabin to celebrate our anniversary. My wife loved it and the cabin is super cozy!

    We loved our weekend getaway at the Cozy Love Shack with its sweet little kitchen that has everything you need, comfy rocker recliners in living room, and beautiful outdoor covered seating area. Nestled on a hill in the woods the nights were so peaceful allowing for a good night's rest, and as seniors we appreciated and used the outdoor stairs to the bedroom loft more often than the indoor stairs/ladder. The tall shower head was a welcomed surprise as was the thought and care that went into providing quality amenities.10/10 on this one!

    Great little cabin for a quiet getaway. Host was super and responded to messages almost instantly. Was having hard time keeping fireplace going so we sent host message asking about some more seasoned wood which they responded AND had some wood delivered in 15 minutes. Cabin leaves nothing to want as it is well supplied and easy to find everything with little notes everywhere to help make your stay a real pleasure. Hoping to book again in the spring or summer to visit waterfalls in the area. Thanks to the hosts.

The place was immaculately clean and well maintained, you could tell the host pays attention to details. The layout and amenities exceeded expectations; comfortable beds, fully equipped kitchen, and thoughtful touches like extra towels, and toiletries.

The outside area was very welcoming, relaxing and bigger than expected. perfect place to watch animals and birds in the morning with coffee. Love the history vibe to the cabin. We appreciated the good quality coffee and fresh eggs in the fridge.

    Everything lived up to the billing as advertised and then some. I was in Cookeville for business and this cabin is only 15 minutes from Downtown yet is very secluded with all the privacy you could ask for. This is the woods. Now be aware that it’s really the woods so there is wildlife, bugs, and if solitude bothers you then look elsewhere. Perfect for me though. Had some interaction with the owners prompted by me and they are amazing people. They leave all the instructions and this cabin had everything I needed. Clean, rustic, and with all the modern amenities. I could not have asked for a better experience.

    We needed to come into Cookeville for event for the TTU baseball team on a Sat night. We decided to just take a look to see what was available for the weekend and we found this amazing cabin so we figured we would just stay the weekend and make a nice relaxing trip out of it. The cabin was about 15 minutes from the baseball field so far enough away to feel like we’re getting a mini vacation and close enough to be able to drive back-and-forth.The cabin has everything you would need for the weekend and the outdoor fireplace was a perfect spot to relax under a blanket by the fire with a book and a glass of wine.

I was in awe of the cabin finishes and cozy decor. It had everything we needed for a short stay but would definitely come back for a little longer next time! The outdoor area with a fireplace and tv has comfy furniture and a table for eating. We spent our night in the outdoor area playing cards by the fire and watching tv. So relaxing and enjoyable. Thanks to the owners for being accommodating and quickly responding to our questions. The location is nice because it’s about 15 minutes to Cookeville which has tons of restaurant options! It was about 25 minutes to Center Lake which wasn’t a bad drive…we came for the lake but honestly I wanted more time at the cabin!
