Private Log Cabin in the Woods! 5min to park. Water View!

Perfect for a couples getaway, our Holly Cabin is comfy no matter the weather on the plateau. Whether you choose to spend a day at Canopy Challenge, golfing, or fishing at the park, heading to the stables, or a more meditative day at Isha Institute of Inner Sciences, we are located just 5 miles from the south entrance of Fall Creek Falls State Park, so that you can enjoy it all. Our 600 sq ft cabin, has a wide front porch that looks out over the pond, private fire pit, grill, and picnic area.

This cabin is equipped with all that you need for comfortable camping on The Plateau. No need to rough it and sleep on the ground and have to light a fire for your coffee in the morning.

Wake from a good night's sleep and put on the coffee maker. Take a stroll around the pond, and return to your cabin to enjoy your coffee sitting on the generous porch while enjoying the bird activity at the feeders and nest boxes. With our fully appointed kitchen, it's easy to make a nourishing breakfast made from the supplies that you purchased at our local mennonite community before going the short distance to Fall Creek Falls State Park.

FCF has wonderful hiking trails and viewing points to the waterfalls, as well as access to other activities: Fishing, Horseback riding, Zip line, and golf. Pick up your lunch at one of their snack bars or eat something that you packed ahead to make a full day of your adventure.

Again, our front porch and pond are excellent amenities to take advantage of for the evening before having your dinner. Be sure to bring charcoal to cook up something sumptuous on the provided grill, and wood to whip up after dinner s'mores at your fire pit. The fireflies and chuck-wills-widows will serenade your eyes and ears as the coals burn down before you head back inside.

In an area as secluded and wooded as ours, TV is rare; but with our excellent fiber optic internet, you will have great options. Evening entertainment may include a movie or choose to binge watch something using this cabin's ROKU device. Bring your log ins and passwords for Netflix, AmazonVideo, HULU, DirectNOW, HBOGO or any other streaming services that you subscribe to, or choose from the free options on The ROKU channel.

A nice hot shower, and bed time it is again! Comfortable camping on The Plateau.

You will have the cabin to yourself. Bring your own firewood and charcoal to enjoy your private fire ring, grill and picnic table. You also have access to our pond for lazy contemplation - sorry, no fishing is allowed. There are over 50 acres (mostly wooded) that you can explore. We have one .75mile walking trail.

As we are almost always on the property, we are easily reached via cell phone.

This is a very rural, heavily wooded area... perfect to unplug and unwind. The variety of wildlife with which we share the property is quite wide. There are birds, butterflies, bull frogs and "Bambi"s, as well as a wide variety of bugs. We are quite successful in keeping all of our wild neighbors out of our cabins; but when outdoors, we share the environment with them. Plan accordingly. :)

* We welcome well behaved house dogs; however, all dogs must be approved BEFORE the reservation is confirmed, and the pet policy must be adhered to. If we agree to host your dog, there will be an additional $35+tax/dog charge for your stay. Please send us a picture of your dog/s - email piney.creek@comcast.net or text 615-308-0688

Husband/wife weekend away
My husband and I really enjoyed this little cabin and would love to come back. Unfortunately, a snow storm came through and we had to leave 1 day early. It was everything we were looking for. The only thing is, I thought we would be more secluded but there is another little cabin right next to it and a bigger cabin across the pond. No one was there the weekend we were so it wasn’t a big deal but I don’t think I would have been as comfortable if someone was, as the cabins are pretty close to each other. We did enjoy the trail, how close it was to fall creek falls/the lodge/ restaurant. The cabin was pretty clean but could use a good deep clean (in the corners mostly). We had a hard time the first night controlling the heat but eventually figured out that using the gas fireplace was our best bet. We had a wonderful time overall and would definitely recommend it.

Quiet and cozy cabin!
It was a very quiet area and cozy cabin, and was perfect for my husband and I, and our 2 dogs. I will however say that this cabin is only semi-private; there is another cabin about 100 feet away. The owners were very responsive and helpful through the entire stay. We will be staying again!

Fall trip
This sweet little cabin was such a joyful experience. We had relatives staying in the area, so we connected with them for a couple of days. The bird video playing when we arrived was awesome. Kept it turn on until bedtime. We found a black screen with gentle rain sounds to sleep by. Falls Creek Falls was an wonderful park to spend some time with relatives. The Old Time Cafe in Spencer was a great place for breakfast. I could go on and on. Great trip! Thank you to our hosts!

Perfect location to see the waterfalls in three state parks!
Enjoyed our three day vacation exploring the local state parks! Piney Creek cabins offered a great quiet place to stay with lots of wildflowers, trees, birds and a pond to reconnect with nature.

Serene and Hassle Free
My husband and I and our two dogs spent four nights here and it was like home. This cabin was private and yet close to the state parks We spent a day each at three of them. The hosts left us a list of restaurants and activities which we def took advantage of. The little cafe in Spencer was not only good, but we enjoyed talking to the man who has owned it for twenty five years. Water pressure in the shower was excellent!!!! For those of you who rent cabins, you know this is important. The environment was perfect with the pond and the water fountain. It was like home....but better so we treated it the same.
