Perfect one bedroom cabin!

I found this cabin to be the appropriate size, very clean and well taken care of. Communication with the owners was easy as they were very responsive. It is in close proximity to the Emerald Hills Wedding Venue and Heritage 1865 Hunting Preserve.

Hidden Gem

If you are looking for a quiet, peaceful, nature filled get away, this is a perfect choice. The front porch provides a beautiful view of the river side of Lake Rathbun. The sky is full of birds, pelicans, and breathtaking sunrises and sunsets...along with hummingbirds that fly right up on the porch with you. It's a simple charming atmosphere, peaceful, relaxing and just minutes away from the boat ramp. A hidden gem, highly recommend.
