Enjoyable, but had no working smoke alarm and did not disclose a broken sliding door lock
This cabin was so cute and the perfect summer getaway for my partner and I, we enjoyed its proximity to hikes and were so happy with how clean it was and how well the wifi worked. However, upon arrival we found that the smoke alarm battery for the house was dying and beeping at us. We contacted customer service to confirm that we were allowed to take it out so it would cease beeping, but it wasn't the way we wanted to start our trip. I understand that with rental properties things like these can happen but the customer service rep did tell us it was reported to her already before we arrived, which made us uneasy about the possibility of our concerns being heard. We were also disappointed that the fact that the slide door in the kitchen's lock was completely broken and that was not disclosed in the description of the property. There was a wood stopper to ensure it couldn't be opened from the outside but still made us very nervous when travelling to a completely new area. Overall, we enjoyed the place, but wish the experience was a bit more professional.

Great place to stay for Cave Run
The only thing if I was to complain about was the downed tree that blocked you from making a loop around with my truck and jet ski. I ended up just parking the JetSki at a neighbors house to make it easier. Everything else was great!

Great Getaway
The cabin was very clean and stocked with everything we needed for a weekend getaway. We had a bit of trouble finding it at first due to poor cell signal (which we expected since we knew it was in the boonies.) Our first night the keypad wouldn't unlock so we could enter the cabin, the property manager responded quickly but it did take a while for maintenance to arrive (again, boonies.) They were very kind and got the issue fixed quickly. We had a great time and thought it was such a cool, ecclectic cabin (great games, some movies, and vinyls!)

Quaint cabin
Quaint rustic cabin nestled in the trees at the end of the property. Very clean and had plenty of kitchen supplies…many more than you’ll need…15 wine glasses, a dozen plates, 15+ coffee mugs. Lol. Generally very quiet and peaceful, until bedtime, when a small local dog that we affectionately named “Pookey” barked nonstop every night until about 2am. Ask us how we know. The nearest “city” is about 30 minutes away, and major attractions for hiking, fishing and boating may take an hour to reach, but well worth the drive. A picturesque and beautiful area of the country for sure. I might recommend that instructions be available for lighting the propane heater. We didn’t really need it but finally figure out how to light it on our own in case we did need it. Also, there were multiple remote controls throughout the cabin, and through trial and error we figured out how to work the TV and sound bar behind the TV. Having labels and instructions for those would be helpful. Overall we enjoyed our stay, albeit we missed out on some sleep thanks to Pookey.

Not as great as we hoped
Looks better in pictures than in person. :( Floors and stairs are uneven. Furniture could use update. Need better lamps/lighting. Had issues getting heat going, but emailed with office and figured it out. Definitely need a posted note indicating how to turn on things and which remote controls what. Expected cabin to be more remote, but neighbors nearby. Beds were comfy. TV was nice. Kitchen had everything we needed.

So cute and homey!
We were very happy with the cabin. As soon as we arrived my son's and I were in love with the character of the cabin. It's like a Hansel and Gretel house. And the decor made us feel like we were visiting my grandma's house. Very clean, secluded, well stocked, fun games to play and the tiny little porches upstairs are perfect for coffee. It was so easy to contact them with any questions and they were prompt to reply even though we were there fourth of July weekend.

A Lovely Getaway Cabin
We loved the cabin. There is a neighbor right across the road but we only saw him the first day. It has a nice mountain setting. We were relatively close to the parks. One disadvantage, the closest food store is a Dollar General. You have to drive over 10 miles to find a real grocery store.

Great Stay in the woods
This cabin is in a little cabin subdivision of sorts, so there are others nearby but it is quiet and peaceful, the cabin is perfect for 2 to 4 people, beds are comfy and the kitchen had just enough to get by for a week or so. TV and internet worked perfectly and the neighbors little dog is a sweetheart. Located near the Cave Run Lake and boat ramps within minutes. We went for a walk in the neighborhood and met several full timers one of which gave us a grand tour on his golf cart which was nice. So if you want a get away that feels remote but not really I recommend the Sugar Shack, PS the old viny record collection and player was awesome.

Christmas vaca (not)
Left at 7am drove 8 hrs to get to Kentucky. We arrive someone has been in the cabin. Dirty dishes blanket on couch, towel on stairway& it was very warm in there. We backed out of the cabin. I called management. They said we've tried to contact you... the pipes froze at the cabin. I got NO calls but ONE text at 930am. I used maps and do not check my phone when driving. I asked so now what do we do. She said there's another property 1 1/2 hrs away. It's 4pm snowy and wet. My friend got her car stuck at the property and took us 45 min to get her out. I decided since it's getting dark & driving back roads were sketchy to stay at hotel then head to other property in the morning. I requested a one night refund. That was DENIED. StayOver said it's not a popular time of the year and they can't control the weather AND they tried to contact me. I'm upset about this! What I should have done is said GIVE ME ALL MY MONEY BACK and went somewhere else. We wanted a Christmas vaca and this is what we got. You be the judge fair or not fair. I won't be using STAYOVER AGAIN.
