So if your looking to add more guests we also have The Cabin which sleeps 4. The area is secluded yet close to fun attractions. The property is right next to bloody run trout stream so bring your fishing pole and experience the great fishing in the beautiful area. Newly built recently is our pond. We do provide 2 kayaks and a paddle boat on site. The pond is private but is shared with the other cabin guests. The large yard area gives you plenty of room to explore. We do have charcoal grill on site but you need to provide charcoal. We are right next to Spook Cave so definitely a must to take a cave tour!

Fun little Cottage

This was a fun little cottage perfect for me and a friend to get away for a weekend. The property provided enough space to do activities outside, including a short trail they have around the property as well as enough space to watch movies and play games inside when we weren't out and about doing things in the area. Definitely plan to stay here again if I do more trips to the Mcgregor area.

I liked the quiet rural aspect of this cabin. It was very clean and organized. The cabin could use some blackout curtains for the room and loft. Also a curtain for the front door window to add a little more privacy since it is a small interior. Other than those few things it was a great place to stay. I would definitely recommend checking out the spook cave tours across the road at Spook Cave campground.
