Wonderful home in a secluded community

This home is spacious and wonderful for a large group. We loved that there were not only beds for everyone, but tons of space in the living room and dining room. While in a community, homes were very spaced out and the lots are wooded, so you had privacy. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there!

Loved the Fall Creek Falls Area

Let me start by saying, our trip was wonderful! We visited many state parks, Cumberland Cavern and enjoyed the Canopy Challenge at Fall Creek Falls State Park. The cabin was wonderful inside, extremely nice appliances and very spacious. The photos outside are dated, currently the entire front porch needs a paint job. Lisa, the owner was very attentive and quick to respond which was lovely. However, the amenities listed in the paperwork I received were very inaccurate and need updated, so beware. There is a general store and cafe on the property (which we counted on for lunches) but it was only open on Friday from 11 to 2 the entire week we were there. The beautiful pool was closed the entire week due to needed repairs, which I didn't find out until my last payment was made. The paperwork mentions that you can rent Bass fishing equipment to use in the 2 lakes on the property, but that also was not available. Also, the lakes and docks on the property are wonderful, but bring rafts, canoes or kayaks because there is no place to rent them. The grill is charcoal, so bring supplies if you plan on using it. Paperwork states a gas grill. Due to the distance to restaurants or major grocery stores (Walmart was 30 minutes), we cooked in each day. So, take ALL supplies needed, for example cutting board, plastic pitcher for drinks, storage containers for leftovers, aluminum foil, baggies, etc. Loved the fire pit, but no chairs, so bring your own. Overall, loved the cabin and area!

Needed a quiet, spacious and comfortable house to get away from the 4th of July madness which goes on for 5 days and all not long where we life. Our dog can not handle the stress of it all. The house was located in a beautiful secluded development and with the exception of 45 minutes of fireworks on 4th of July it was quiet as can be. The dog had room on the deck to move around. I would recommend keeping your dogs on a leash when walking around, lots of beautiful wildlife in the area that may not appreciate your dog.The kitchen was well stocked with everything you possibly need. The appliance are all quite new and in great condition. There is a huge dining room table for your family and guests. The property is wooded and private with a very comfortable back deck.The hosts, Cliff and Lisa were charming and helpful and addressed our questions and concerns very quickly. I highly recommend this property.

Three-night stay at The Preserve

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was the best property we have ever used for our annual family gatherings. The family has grown enough that some had to stay at a motel (I think was in Sparta),but evening meals and a gathering place for trips to Fall Creek Falls worked out just great. The facility is very large, allowing for plenty of room for gathering, both inside and outside. Very clean, tidy and well appointed with all upscale appliances and kitchen ware. Thank you for a great experience. P.S., the activity center (tennis, basketball, swimming, etc.)is well within walking distance and well kept.

Beautiful Retreat in the Woods

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What a beautiful retreat surrounded by woods on all sides! Natural light & views of nature fill every room in this home. Spacious & even larger than pics show, we had plenty of room for 3 adults & 4 kids & our family pets too. The bonus spaces upstairs & down were a pleasant surprise upon arrival. There is a king & a queen bed in the bonus space upstairs with plenty of room to spread out. Also my youngest loved the extra bunk/play space in one of the upstairs bedrooms. The kitchen is sufficient but lacking in cookware enough for a large family such as ours. Bring your own large pots if you are bringing a crowd. We loved the surround sound speaker system to play music throughout that downstairs living spaces & out on the deck too. The community pool was the perfect way to cool off after long hikes in the state park. We never saw the general store actually open. Plan your meals & get your groceries on the way to the cabin as the nearest grocery stores are 30+ minutes away. There is a Dollar General about 5 miles from the park entrance for last minute things. Our family has enjoyed many trips to the area and the Preserve is by far the nicest & most spacious rental we have found. It’s about a 20 min drive from the nature center at the park & all the beauty the park has to offer. It was the perfect place for a wonderful family trip!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We recently met here at the Preserve for a couple of days of shooting at Dead Zero Shooting Park. While the location was a little farther from the shooting park that we realized, the accommodations was well worth the drive. The property management team is great to work with. We intend to go back again next year.

This was a perfect location to spend a weekend for an event at Fall Creek Falls. Subdivision was pretty much empty. At first wasn’t quite sure it was the right place . Wished that the neighborhood store was open. And we were too early in the season to go to the pool.We arrived early and Cliff was able to allow us to check in at noon. Cabin was very clean with the necessary amenities needed. We were hoping that the fire place was located at the deck area.

The building itself was wonderful. It was spacious and well designed with great places for the family to be together or to retreat to their own space, both indoor and outdoor. Mr. Davidson and the rest of the staff were very helpful and responded to all of our questions. The check in procedure was seemless. Our only minor quibbles were the long gravel road to get to the cottage and a lack of a guide to nearby activities. The lack of a guide is probably due to the cottage being remote, which was what they advertised. Our family loved our stay and would highly recommend this place for other families' getaways.

Family Lake getaway

Came for some family, fishing and fun. Great weekend trip and the house was perfect for our stay. The only negative I had is poor lighting in the drive. There are stairs leading to sidewalk to front porch and cannot be seen at night. We had to use our flashlights to make sure no one fell getting in the house.
