Loxley, Alabama
Enjoy life on a working farm in our rural country cabin. Located 6 miles down a red dirt road, in the middle of timber woods, but within driving distance of world-class entertainment, shopping, dining and white sand beaches.
This cabin retreat is set on a working livestock ranch and offers the peace and quiet of country life while being just a short distance from the OWA Amusement Park, fine dining, great malls, an outlet center, and the beautiful Gulf beaches. The cabin offers a full kitchen, flat screen TV with antenna and DVD player, queen-size bed, full-size sleeper sofa, and washer and dryer. Located 6 miles down a County-maintained red dirt road in the middle of thousands of acres of pine forests. When it rains, the road can get a little messy, so we recommend an SUV over a car. We provide a coffee maker, coffee grounds, fresh eggs from our chickens, and a loaf of fresh bread (for you or to feed the animals). We do not provide a cooked breakfast.
When they say that this is a rustic cabin, they mean it. There is no wifi and it is way out in the middle of nowhere. I was perfect. The animals and the quiet were perfect and I am so glad that I found this little piece of paradise. My teenage boys didn't even really notice that there was no wifi because they enjoyed being outside. The pros outweigh the cons by quite a bit. I will go over the cons first since there are so few. The first one is the spiders. The porch was covered in orb weaver spiders and since I am horribly arachnaphobic, I did not find this nice at all. I am sure it was a way to maybe lower the insect population on the porch but I didn't like it. The second con is that the cabin was unlevel so do not drink in this cabin because you might fall into the toilet. That did not bother me at all though. Also, when they say that an suv would be best, they mean it. My Dodge Challenger made it through fine but after the rain, I had to do a lot of dodging pot holes. Now to the pros. The place is perfect for getting away from everything. They had it fully stocked with anything that you could need, even marshmallow roasters. They have plenty of blankets and pillows. They have lots of dvds and games. They even offer to take the family to feed the animals if you contact them. They left eggs and a loaf of bread which the bread got immediately grabbed up by my kids to feed the animals. I can't wait to book this place again next year.
