Love to hike, kayak or just relax? Bring your friends, family, and dogs!

Need a getaway? Family - friends - hiking - hunting, or maybe just you and the dog! This cabin offers three furnished bedrooms and two full bathrooms. We also provide accommodations for your dogs. We offer internet and a separate desk area so you can work if necessary. The cabin sits on a full acre, so you can take a stroll around the property without interfering with neighbors. To enjoy the firepit, we provide firewood, seating, and s'mores sticks, if it's an indoor night, the gas log fireplace needs no work to create ambiance. Venturing out? This cabin is 2 minutes away from Cook Forest Fun Park, about 5 minutes to the Fire Tower, and less than 10 minutes from kayak rentals and other activities. Several restaurants are also just a short drive.

Great New Years Weekend with friends. We all fit comfortably in the cozy, clean cabin. We especially liked the fireplace and the special touches with the Christmas decorations. We were very thankful and appreciative for allowing our furbabies to join us! Highly recommend staying here when visitng the Cook Forest State Park area!

Warm & Cozy
The owners did a great job w renovating/remodeling the cabin to a new look and functional - utilizing the space for 3 bedrms, 2 full baths, kitchen, dining area and family room. In the wintry months you'll be warm and cozy. We also enjoyed the gas fireplace. Kris, the hostess, was very accommodating to make sure our stay was enjoyable.

A refreshing stay in the forest!!
We completely loved our stay at Fern Valley Cabin. The hosts were so kind and accommodating. The cabin is situated very close to Cook Forest, so we could do everything we wanted to do in the park, but the location of the cabin still felt very private and secluded. The beds were SO comfortable (everyone in our group agreed on this). The cabin was very clean and incredibly well provisioned with everything we needed while we were there. We’re sad that summer is over, but already talking about how we’d love to stay here in the fall and winter. Thank you to our awesome hosts for providing such an excellent stay for some much needed relaxation and family time:)
