This was our second weekend at Cabin 3. We love the fireplace, the low key, unobtrusive host, Tom, the quirky vibes, and the woods! Our dogs love being there and Tom doesn’t charge a ton of money for them to stay. The cabin was well equipped and we saw a large barn owl perch for about half an hour just beyond the bedroom window!
Outdoor plug was great for charging our EV!

The cabin was cozy and in a great location. I loved all the artwork and decor. The host was friendly and available. We enjoyed the fireplace and the firepit. I would note that it only has one bed and a couch as the listing says it sleeps 4.

If you're looking for a five star all inclusive resort, this is not the place for you. It's a charmingly rustic cabin tucked back in the woods. I've seen the negative reviews complaining about the random vehicles parked about or sheds sitting here and there and to be honest it made me want to book it even more. The cabin was PERFECT. The host, Tom, was so welcoming. You feel like you're in the backwoods somewhere but you're only a minute from town. We throughly enjoyed our stay and our only complaint was that it wasn't long enough. If you're looking for something different I highly recommend this lovely little place!

Little cabin with all you need.

The cabin was nice, exactly as pictured. It was a great location to go into Carbondale to eat, down the road to hike Giant City, or drive 30 minutes to several hikes or wine tasting in the area. We appreciated the friendly host and well equipped cabin.
