Hiking and waterfalls
The perfect spot for outdoor adventures. Comfortable cabin with a beautiful deck and access to a hugh lake. We saw 5 waterfalls in 3 days , hiked miles of challenging trails . Do not forget to go to Cookeville, excellent restaurants and fun shops. No lines , no crowds , no screaming kids, just an awesome time at Serenity Cabin.

Perfect For Us but Needs Some Attention
This Vrbo was good for our family. We enjoyed it greatly and it fit our needs for this trip. Positives - neighbors are fun, the price is good, it’s near the lake (although we couldn’t use it due to the weather). Negatives - it needs a good deep clean (dishes were dirty, hasn’t been dusted, cobwebs, etc), several lights wouldn’t turn on, shower downstairs sprays a good bit, the yard needs some work, and be prepared for lots of chickens.

Needing a break
Overall it was a great place for a get away and to shut off the electronic world. Enjoy all the birds and creatures and the views. I personally had a bit of a stress melt down on the road and actual driveway but got use it . My other half enjoyed it and actually relaxed and that was worth everything. A good time was had by everyone and many day trips of interest all where within handy distance. If I could make one recommendation my daughter and I are heavier set possibly installing a grib bar for stability stepping out of the shower. Oh and the start of the summer season maybe maintenance on the Ac heads abit loud. But overall a great time. Enjoyed the Chickens, Kitties and Pups and definitely the farm fresh eggs . Thank you

Misleading
6 adults.. 2 childern in a one bedroom essentially. We booked this rental because of the three-bedroom listing. Sadly we arrived we noticed it was upstairs loft and a a single bedroom downstairs. We mainly booked because of the three-bedroom. There are 3 bedrooms. Besides the misleading listing and the unkempt yard it was beautiful.

Amazing getaway
Perfect stay for the weekend. It’s a beautiful property located to some amazing Tennessee areas. We went to Nashville (80 minutes away) and the city of Cookeville (25 min), hiked Burgess Falls. It was an amazing time! The cabin was cozy with a claw foot tub, dvds, and games - perfect way to disconnect from the world and connect with each other!

Birthday getaway
This place was the best birthday get away for the weekend! Loved the location it was absolutely beautiful! Only thing was the shower tub was dirty but nothing some cleaning supplies can’t fix and on our last day the temp dropped and well the heaters did not work at all, good thing we packed our own comforters to stay warm. Other than that this place was wonderful.

Great REMOTE place to stay!
The property,location, and amenities were as described. Beautiful area landscape to observe. Breathtaking views as you drive in. The driveway is quite substandard for the incline that it sits on. The cabin is spacious and the 3 bathrooms were a huge plus. We also enjoyed the well lit fire pit area! Bugs were not terrible but if you walk on the trails in the afternoon you will encounter bees. They have movies and board games to play as well when you have some down time. In addition, the showers were always warm and the bathrooms were clean.

Beautiful cabin, but could have been cleaner
This is a beautiful property inside with many quaint and thoughtful details, but . . . the cleanliness of some of the rooms left a lot to be desired. The basement bathroom is the only bathroom with a true shower and the tub/shower did not really appear to be clean and step to get into the shower was mildewy and dusty. (and would strongly recommend adding a grab bar to the shower - it is a tricky step down with wet feet). There were other areas in the house that were clearly not cleaned - coffee bar area upstairs is an amazing touch, but creamer drips all over and sticky coffee mugs. The table and chairs on the deck had to be wiped down thoroughly before use and the grill was too dirty to use. There was only one towel placed on each bed and no hand towels in any of the 3 bathrooms. The water-activated washcloths were cute, but not very functional - more like a wet paper towel. Some warning on the rough entry road and a number placed on the house would have significantly helped with the check in process. The kitchen was a bit lean on some items - only 2 knives and no wine glasses. We washed everything prior to use. We did not experience any of the pest issues that were noted in other reviews. We were a bit concerned with the close proximity to the neighbors, but we didn't hear them at all during the time we were there. In all, we enjoyed the home and would stay there again, but would be prepared for some of the cleanliness issues.

Peaceful escape, the center of adventure
We rented this cabin because it offered a peaceful place to kick back and relax after adventuring into nature. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. We shared some information with the owners regarding the cleanliness of the space and I am hopeful her cleaners will fix their shortcomings. The important things (bedding and restrooms) were clean, the nooks and cranies needed some attention, however. The washcloths were adorable, but out of stock with no alternative in the lower two restrooms. I would recommend giving renters access to a few extra towels/ linens. The trail to the beach was slippery and ROUGH! The wash up from the lake had the space covered in branches and trash, with no space to actually enjoy the water. If you want water access I recommend just driving down to the "beach" or go chasing waterfalls! Neither were negatives, but might be helpful for others to know that the roads into the property are bumpy and gravel and the neighbors are super close! Make sure you pause and enjoy the sounds of nature on the 3 levels of decking and all the stars!

Beautiful location
Positives: Cabin was charming and linens/dishes were clean and in good repair. Negatives: Quite a bit further from Smithville than I had expected, my fault for not being careful on this account. Wash towels were an interesting touch. Air conditioning was very noisy on top level and had to be turned off so we could tub sleep. Floors were dirty with soil and food crumbs. There were millipedes both upstairs and on main floor, with toddler this was concerning as some got on our feet while we were standing. Tub also had bugs in it. Need to update add for non-existent hot tub. We left wood for next guests as spent most time away from the cabin.

Perfect for our spring break
So thankful that this place was available for spring break. It's a bummer that the hot tub doesn't work, that would have been a nice addition for entertainment. Also, there is only one children's DVD available to watch, so make sure to bring your own if you've got kids coming. There is wifi, but no smart tv/roku available so that you could watch your streaming services. The place was clean and cozy. When we first got there, there was an overpowering scent from these GLAD scented plug-in things, and I'm very sensitive/allergic to scents, so that was disappointing, but I set them outside and it aired out soon enough. The fold out couch in the main living room is pretty uncomfortable. But the couch itself is comfortable to sleep on. There was lots of space for everyone to sleep, so that was nice. The sheets/comforters were clean. Our favorite part was hanging out on the porch and being able to make meals in home and eat them on the porch. The claw food bathtub was nice, everyone had to get a bath in it at some point! The hosts will answer you within 24 hours through the app's messaging service.
