We were only there one night but it was great. Host and her family were extremely accommodating and friendly. The cabin was nice and spacious. The mattress was a little hard for my liking but that's just a preference thing. All in all a great experience!

The cabin was clean and nicely decorated. We enjoyed using the grill and the firepit. The cabin is in a nice setting in the woods on the west of Black Fork Mountain. It was a very peaceful setting. The air was very fresh. We appreciated the good communication and the simple check in and check out.

Fun before Thanksgiving

4 adults and 2 young children took a little trip to the woods before heading to family Thanksgiving. It was a great cabin. Beautiful location. Kids loved the wiener roast and the S’mores we made in the fire ring. The weather was cold so it was perfect. We enjoyed the state park near by too. The stairs inside are a little steep for small children but our kiddos did well. It’s perfect for a retreat anytime of the year.

Idyllic Getaway

Candice communicated promptly with us to let us know how to find the property (which is a bit off the beaten path), how we could reach her, and how we would check in. Right before our original trip date, my whole family got sick with a stomach bug, and Candice helped us reschedule through Vrbo. Thanks to her flexibility and help, we were able to stay and have a wonderful time just a couple of weeks later. The property itself is absolutely gorgeous and well-kept. They thoughtfully provided us with fresh firewood and stocked the kitchen with coffee (genius!). We also had a delicious meal in Heavener on the way out. We will absolutely be returning for another vacation very soon—hopefully for a longer stay!
