Perfect little get away
My spouse and I really needed to get away from life/work but wanted to bring our dogs, and this was the perfect spot to disconnect. The property is beautiful and has a great trail to walk and it's only a few minutes from Lincoln State Park. Would love to go back when it's warmer weather. ☺️

Relaxing country get away
Easy to coordinate with Doug. The place was spotless and very comfortable. Plus they thought of everything you might possible need — including a dog lead! We have AT&T and had good phone service. Highly recommend.

Had a great time!
We went fishing at the pond on the property, went to the town of Santa Clause, IN, and to the casino in Evansville, IN. Loved the rustic guest house - the woodwork was beautiful. A great big shout out to Doug and Liberty -- Thank you so much for your hospitality!

Comfortable Stay
We rented Doug's place kinda last minute for a one night stay in the middle of an emergency cross country road trip. Doug was wonderful to communicate with, very friendly and responsive. The unit was well cared for, clean, and comfortable. The only thing I feel that is important to mention that there was a Confederate flag hung on the property. As a North Eastern Hispanic family, its presence was unsettling. We understand that the flag for some is a symbol for states rights, but for others it is a symbol of racism. The flag isn't present in the photos posted online, so I just wanted to mention it so others are not taken by surprise upon their arrival. The property host, Doug, was friendly and kind and did not behave in any negative or racist way.

Great option for travel with dogs
I stayed 3 nights with my friend and two dogs and enjoyed the pond and acreage as well as the proximity to Lincoln State Park and the Lincoln's Boyhood Home museum. It is a beautiful setting! The grass was long around the yard, and the pond is down a hill, not directly adjacent to the cabin. Be prepared for mud if you linger at the sides of the pond - we took our kayaks and dogs down there and everyone got muddy getting in and out if you don't use the floating dock. The AC in the bedroom is noisy, so bring your earplugs and the kitchen/living room doesn't really get cooled by the AC in the bedroom and stays warm and humid. There is a firepit, charcoal grill, which had all the supplies, a 2 burner hotplate and a nice refrigerator and freezer. The kitchen is well equipped with all the tools and place settings for 4 people. Great option for an area that doesn't have many hotels for visitors and few options for travel with dogs! Two thumbs up and 8 paws up!

Very Remote and very quiet
The property was beautiful. The bathroom was a little tricky because you have to step up and down multiple times and it's not marked. I fell in the middle of the night, but only bruised my toe. There is no internet and no cell service unless you use At&t unless you walk to the top of the hill. This isn't bad, but you should plan accordingly. There is a pet bobcat on the property in a very secure cage. We never saw it. The host was very helpful and responsive. The place was clean and very pretty. My husband enjoyed fishing in the pond on property. We drove 25 minutes to Santa Claus, Indiana and stopped at Abraham Lincoln's boyhood home on the way. If you are looking for a clean, quiet, comfortable (the bed and shower were awesome) remote off grid experience..this is the place for you.

It was absolutely beautiful, both the house and the area it is located in. We really enjoyed our time there and hope to come back the next time we are in the area. The beds were very comfortable, the shower was amazing, and the kitchen accomodations were wonderful. We enjoyed using the grill to cook hot dogs for dinner and we loved the firepit. It is wonderful how the owner goes out of his way to make sure guests have everything they need to enjoy all aspects of the guest house. He provided charcoal for the grill, wood for the firepit, and even fish food to feed the fish in the pond. The kitchen had everything except the food. Just wonderful! He is a wonderful host and we loved how he was there and not there all at the same time. He let us be and do our own thing, but was on the property and was there if we needed anything. We highly recommend a stay here.

Country Getaway
I really appreciate all of the amenities provided to make me feel at home. I was worried about forgetting things but was happy to find towels, linens, coffee, ice, and charcoal. There was even fish food for the pond and a trail map. The pond was so lively and the fish bit quick! The floaties are starting to fall apart but I am glad they were there and we could enjoy being in the water. The owner was quick to respond to any questions we had before and during our stay. One thing to be aware of is there is no WiFi so even though there is a smart TV, you can only use it if you connect your phone. Overall very pleased and would stay here again!

Very quiet and off the beaten path.
If you love the outdoors, this is the place for you. A lot of property to wonder the trails, and a nice fishing lake. The owner is very responsive to all questions and needs you may have. Just about everything was provided for us, a fire pit, and wood were available for use along with chairs, and tables. Inside, the place was very nice and rustic in nature, made our stay feel like home. The only cons to the stay was that there was only one AC unit, but it was in the sleeping area, so it made for a pleasant sleep. Walking through the woods is just like anywhere else, if you don't have the deep woods off, don't go walking, you will encounter the dreaded tic's, I myself found 6 in various places, and my better half was able to find two, but it was still worth the stay. Fishing therapy was just what I needed in a quiet setting. This location was only 20 minutes from Holiday World park, and that made it even more perfect.

Nice escape from Urban living
We enjoyed our stay here. The rental is very spacious. Rustic cabin decor, and beautiful wood floors, ceilings, and walls, wonderful craftsmanship. Full kitchen, three beds, lots of acreage with walking trails, and a pond suitable for swimming. A very nice get-a-way to enjoy country living. Picnic tables, chairs, and grill are available for those who stay at this VRBO. An additional picnic table is also available in the garage area for those seeking shade from the sun. The host is very helpful and welcoming. He makes sure you have all the necessities needed to be comfortable in this rental.

Quaint and quiet
Easy access. I loved the cabin feel. Slept great. However another small window unit would help greatly. Maybe it was the time of the season. But the little "stink bugs" were a nuisance. Turning on lights at night seem to activate them more. My husband had a super great time at the pond....caught 5 bass and around 25 croppie.he loved it We would like to return

Amazingly family friendly
From the moment I pulled onto the property I was impressed. Doug came right over to meet me and gave me a very thorough and friendly welcome to the property and cabin. The pond is a nonstop blast! We caught so many fish! The cabin was made with its guest in mind. He supplied us with everything we could need to grill out and relax. The beds were literally like sleeping on a cloud. Be prepared for very limited phone service. I have to admit the lack of WiFi at first seemed like a negative thing but this provided that much needed break from devices and distractions. My family and I recommend this Place to anyone who wants to enjoy their family time! A+++++++++++ Doug is the best! Thank you so much! Ginger

Honest pays in long run
Very peaceful awesome place while we were there it was relaxing but very cold in cabin.we rent for 29 days but left due to distance from anywhere and temp in cabin. But will only receive very small refund. The info online did not say no refund if we left 14 days early sorry Doug just want to be honest.

Could have gone better
The location is beautiful and I wish the weather hadn’t been so cold so we could have enjoyed it more (forecast said it would be in the 40’s when we booked and I’m not sure it got above 25, so we didn’t get out as much as we wanted). The owner is very friendly and helpful. The first thing: the owner’s house is onsite, this isn’t an issue as the rental is separate and set back, but just be aware you may see other people during your stay. Second: Heat is entirely from the fireplace. We were a bit cold at first and contacted Doug, the owner, to turn it up. He was very quick to come and help us. (Hint: Turn the fan on above the fireplace and it pushes the heat around which will heat up the area.) We were enjoying ourselves, relaxing as we had wanted, but then there were bugs. We expected some bugs, we knew we were going to a remote area, but this was excessive. It was most likely due to the increase in heat inside versus outside. They became a nuisance, especially while we were trying to cook or walk through specific areas. We decided to leave early when I went to take a shower and my boyfriend killed a roach in the bathroom. We did let Doug know about the issues and he was quick to respond that he would take care of the problems. Obviously, he couldn’t take care of them in the timeframe we were there. We did receive a partial refund. I do hope that these issues are taken care of because it would be a great property to explore during warmer months.
