Forest Cabin #2 at Camp Because I Said I Would

Summary:

Rustic charm meets modern convenience in this secluded woodland retreat. Enjoy Spectrum internet, indoor wood-burning stove, and outdoor hot tub. Sleeps 6 with 2 private bedrooms, queen-size log futons, and a full bathroom. Family room features a 55” LED HDTV with Chromecast and Blu-Ray/DVD player. Central heating/cooling and fully equipped kitchen included. Privacy ensured with a location 70 yards from the nearest cabin and a private backyard fire pit, picnic table, and grill.



The Space:

Camp Because I said I would is owned by a charity, so 100% of our fees go to our nonprofit. Because I said I would is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and we have programs for families in bereavement at this camp. However, we rent our 5 resort cabins during downtime to generate funding for the charity!

Our 92-acre camp and retreat center is in the heart of Amish Country in Knox County where it is very peaceful, private and quiet. Our property features a 1.5-acre swimming and fishing lake (seasonal), a 2-acre vineyard, 1-mile of privately-owned canopied forest trails . We are so much more than just a place to sleep!



Guest Access:

Guests access this cabin from our second driveway and a property map is provided after booking. We have digital keypad access! Please note you have to drive down a gravel road for about a half mile to get to our property. There are 2 parking spots for cars right next to the cabin, but more parking is available on our property if you are OK with walking a bit.



Other Things to Note:

If you are interested in booking multiple cabins, we have 5 cabins with a total of 16 bedrooms and 13 baths. We have 5 hot tubs on the property, so every cabin gets its own 😊 If you have any other questions, please let us know! Thank you for your interest in a cozy stay, but also for the impact your cabin rental fees have in supporting our charity and the families in bereavement we serve.



Interaction with Guests:

There is a property staffed every night. There is a Guest Support Textline to help you during your stay with a response time of around 1-hour or less.

Great Getaway - Will Stay Again!

The property was very well maintained and the cabin was just as advertised. By chance we had stopped at a record store in Columbus and there was a record player in the living room. We would definitely stay here again!

Hidden gem

Well maintained, pretty quite except for the gravel road somewhere on the other side of the woods and I think a gun range close by but that didnt bug us. It is a great hidden gem overall. We loved it so much we are already planning on another trip for this year with our kids!

Peaceful stay

Great property. The cabin was as pictured and in a beautiful spot. Activities to do on the property were amazing. Only negative was the hot tub temperature change was difficult to get to work and hot tob cover was hard to put up and take down due to location. But it was manageable and would stay again!

Girls trip

We had a wonderful time even though it rained most of the time. First time renting a cabin without internet. It allowed us to share lots of stories with each other. That made it an even better stay. Would have liked to listen to music on my Bluetooth speaker, but no internet. Thank you for replying to my questions.

Great location and comfortable furniture

Location is nice and private enough for us to feel comfortable on our anniversary! Cabin 2 is relatively close but foliage separating the two cabins provided adequate visual separation. Music from neighboring cabin could be heard while outside but felt I could listen to ours at a good volume without causing a disturbance to our neighbors. Host was gracious enough to let us check in early free of charge!! A few minor things I noticed while there that could use the hosts attention. Hot tub had only one of 4 jets that functions at full pressure, the hot ton cover counter weighted lift bar was not functioning as intended making removal and replacement of the cover difficult. Labeling of light switches could help as they are spread out and are not in locations that are intuitive. Aside from that this is a great place to get away to! Highly recommend and will likely stay again!
