The cottage was clean and communication was excellent. The only problems were the internet and cell service was almost nonexistent. Also it should be noted in the ad that the trail to the cottage would be best navigated with an all wheel drive vehicle.

Quaint, clean getaway property. More than a little off the beaten track, but once you get there, it's quiet and well equipped, but for the TV. Internet is spotty at best and is in need of an upgrade. Cell service is hit or miss as well. Cows in pasture across the road is a bonus.

My partner and I had a wonderful stay at this cabin! It’s so peaceful and quiet- makes for an excellent getaway. While we did lose power due to storms one night, it came back rather quickly and we were able to continue our fun. The cabin is not far from the warm springs pools and there’s no shortage of outdoor adventures. The host is very accommodating and even provided flyers of events nearby! We highly recommend staying here and hope to be back.

Great place for a getaway

We had a great time in this place, we were 3 adults and a toddler and really valued the space we had. The views are fantastic and our nights by the fireplace were the best. Hoping to come back soon!

Would be nicer in the summer

Place is way way off the beaten track. Didn't like that I had to go to a property manager to get paperwork with door code. It was out of the way, as I was supposed to go to Covington and it would have made the trip longer to go past one of the routes to the place, for a door code. Used to having door code on site with all the information. Lovely house, but internet is very very slow and couldn't watch anything but DVD's. It is close to the lake, so summer would have been much better. If you are looking to un-plug this is a great place to do so. The cows across the road, where fascinating to watch. Beautiful area.

Would want to stay a month!

Great place to get away from stress. Very clean. Well stocked as far as utensils and cooking items. Difficult to find without a map and GPS comes in and out and signage is limited and confusing if you are not familiar with the area. Would have preferred a map included with written directions. Would have also liked more directions to get to restaurants in the area (we had menus but limited GPS coverage). There are very few unless you get to Hot Springs and the Omni. The Omni is incredible. Grocery stores are limited so plan ahead.

Lake Moomaw weekend

We went so one of us could swim the Lake Moomaw 1 Mile Swim. Great house, we had 4 adults and loved the porch and fire pit. We cooked breakfast each morning and had ample room for drinks, lunch food and snacks. We grilled one night. Very convenient to warm springs, Lake Moomaw, a river to fish.

Remote & Quiet

Enjoyed sitting on the front porch looking at the cows and waking up in the morning with deer in the backyard. There is a long drive to town so you might want to get your supplies ahead of time so you can enjoy your time without interruption. If you enjoy cooking the kitchen has extremely basic cooking utensils, pots, pans, knives etc. There is no range hood in the kitchen & no dishwasher. The only light in the kitchen is the ceiling fan light & it is very dim & needs to be upgraded to a daylight led. The porch light didn't appear to be working or needed a bulb. The is no exhaust fan in the bathroom to remove odors or steam from the shower.
