Samantha and Tommy are great host. 15-20 minutes away from Pickens. Close to many outdoor hiking and sights. Quiet and peaceful. Great walking on tbe property.
Although our plans for exploring mountains and trails fell through due to the fires, we enjoyed our time at the cabin. Loved sitting outside at night watching the fireflies blend in with the stars. Perfect secluded place.
Such an amazing home and some amazing hosts! We spent our wedding anniversary here, when we walked in they had a wonderful note for us and a bottle of champagne. Did I say they were amazing hosts?? The only negative experience was leaving, we didn’t want to…lol. We are definitely coming back!
Staying here was magical! The scenery was absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views and serene surroundings that made us feel instantly relaxed. The property itself was beautiful, blending comfort with elegance.
The host was truly amazing—so warm, attentive, and helpful. They went above and beyond, sharing local tips and ensuring we had everything we needed. Thanks to their recommendations, we had some of the best experiences of our trip.
We can’t recommend this place enough! Whether you’re seeking peace or adventure, this is the perfect getaway. We can’t wait to return.
The property was very easy to find and the owners were very helpful with anything that we needed. The property was beautiful and we enjoyed fishing in their pond. We will definitely be going back.
Their place is beautiful, quiet and peaceful...highly recommend
We will definitely be revisting this place

Table Rock Weekend Getaway
We had a great weekend and enjoyed our stay at this property. The owners are extremely helpful and accommodating. The cabin had everything you need, was very clean and cozy spot to relax.
Thanks so much!
This place truly is amazing to stay at. It is exactly the peace and quiet anyone needs to get away and relax, but still with all the comforts of home. If you need a wonderful place to stay with some of the most wonderful host please don't pass this place up!
Cozy cabin nestled in the woods! Great place to land, especially if you are interested in Table Rock State Park! Only 3 miles away from cabin.First day we were to hike, it rained heavily all day. We enjoyed the museum in Pickens and delicious lunch at Farmer house deli! Cabin was easy to spend time.We fixed dinners there, kitchen is well equipped. Host was VERY responsive to any questions we had. Definitely recommend!
Samantha and Tommy go above and beyond to make sure your stay is a great experience. We have stayed in bigger and much more expensive cabins, but this place puts the others to shame. Extremely clean, awesome views, quiet, wonderful hosts, what else would you want? We will be back!!
This place is everything you want when booking with VRBO. The house was exactly as pictured, everything was extremely clean, comfortable and well taken care of. The owners go above and beyond to ensure you have a wonderful stay. And the VIEW...just amazing. My family had an incredible vacation and will definitely be back. Thank you Samantha for everything.

apples of gold
some things are rarely just so right & fitting- the owners make you feel like family- so caring- our slice of heaven was certainly heaven sent & God ordained- thanks
The rental was better than expected. It is much bigger than it appears. Even with 2 teenagers, there was plenty of space. We really enjoyed fishhing in the pond and the fire pit. The views are amazing also. The host was always available to answer questions and make sure everything was good.
I was very pleased with this weekend getaway. The view was breathtaking. The owners made sure we had everything we needed. We also enjoyed fishing and just spending quality time together as a family. We will be back. Highly recommended!!!
This was one of the cleanest and cutest cabins I have ever stayed in. We enjoyed our trip so much. The owner has everything covered you could possible need. Location is great and the land it sits
On is beautiful
Everything was as described here for the property and we loved every second of our stay. Samantha was incredibly hospitable and responsive, really going above and beyond. The property itself is amazing and, while it was too cold to enjoy the perks of the pond, we definitely enjoyed the fire pit under a wonderful view of the stars. Everything was clean and all expectations of the property were met if not exceeded. Only minutes from Table Rock State Park and we were able to spend a whole day there with our two young children (4 & 6) without them getting bored. An all-around enjoyable experience and we can't wait to go back!
This was such a great stay! Even without power due to recent bad weather, we didn’t feel like we were missing out on anything! Power was back on within 24 hours of our arrival and the hosts were great help throughout it all! This is definitely a great place to stay and we’ll definitely be back! Thanks for the perfect getaway!
This a rustic getaway with a lovely pond and nature all around. We had good internet access and all we needed for cooking and relaxing. Samantha was an extremely helpful and responsive hostess.
