Needed a private weekend getaway

The property was amazing, last house at the end of the road surrounded by a wandering creek and cows! The cabin was just as described and perfect fro our needs! We were close to state parks, which is what we wanted. We will be back to enjoy this very special place!

Beautiful Property, Comfortable Cabin

The grounds were lovely and we spent a lot of time exploring. Our dog had a great time, so did we- beautiful hiking nearby and we loved Owen Valley Winery, also very close. The cabin is great, we really didn't need to leave much! Fabulous location for the 2024 Eclipse.

Great Secluded Getaway

What a great spacious cabin to stay in as a couple with or without pets. It’s close to the parks and Bloomington. It was listed with 0 bathrooms but had to dig a little to find it actually had a half and a 3/4 bath. Pictures of those would have eased our fears but otherwise a great place to stay.

very secluded property but easy to find. Pretty property and a very nice weekend weather-wise. Arrived late evening on Saturday and had dinner and watched some TV. Sunday we were planning to hit National Park nearby, but ended up just staying there enjoying the grounds and reading,and relaxing.

We had a wonderful stay. It was everything they said it was. We were looking for a secluded place to stay and it was indeed secluded. Beautiful, picturesque, quiet. The dogs loved being able to roam the property and use the creek to cool down.

July 4th mini vacation

The cabin in Spencer was a perfect place to get away for a peaceful retreat! If you’re looking for some unwinding, babbling brook kind and morning bird chirping kind of get away- this is it. It’s simple, easy, no fuss, beautiful. I was looking for somewhere close to do some geode exploring, and I found that too. And that… you’ll have to find on your own ;) enjoy!!! (The MOST gracious hosts… who let me back in the house after I had a breakdown with my rental car, missed my flight, and needed a place to stay the night.)

Serene woodland

This property did not disappoint. We were only there for a couple of days and wish we had booked for much longer. The cabin provided everything we needed and more, even down to the dog bowls. The woods surrounding the clearing provided ample opportunity for bird watching or just listening to the lovely stream along the property. 15 minute drive to McCormick State Park which still has some closed trails due to the 2023 tornado but we enjoyed our little hike there. The roomy cabin was clean, clean, clean and comfortabe as could be. We hope to stay again!

Beautiful home, beautiful woods and lush green meadows surrounding. The property manager was great! If you get a chance, stop by the adjacent field and say " howdy" to some friendly Owen County cows.

Sunshine and birdsongs

This cabin and property were even more beautiful than the pictures show! Inside was clean, spacious, and beautiful. It had everything we could possibly need with plenty of living space for two adults and two dogs. Bathrooms were pristine, kitchen lacked nothing, and bed was very comfy. The cabin sits up on a rise in the center of the property with gorgeous views all around of the fields, woods and branches of the creek. We sat for hours in the sunshine on the deck playing cards, reading, and listening to the birds while our dogs explored safely all around. It was heaven! Communication with the host was easy and very pleasant and we will definitely return! McCormick State Park was within 15 minutes with well-tended trails and beautiful scenery. Green’s Bluff Trail was stunning and definitely worth hiking ( 5 min away.) Owen Valley Winery is adorable, as is the town of Spencer. Bloomington was a reasonable drive for a walk through campus and a tour of town. Plenty to do in this area, and a fantastic place to stay, especially with dogs! Thank you Gerry for being such a sweet host!

Very private, large acreage property accommodates for the family dog and those who love nature! We spent most of the time outdoors by the fire and walking along the creek! It was very quiet and relaxing! Lots of shade courtesy of the black walnut trees, hillsides and the bluff running along the creek. We'll definitely be back!

Beautifully secluded property. Amazing views. Everything you need to prepare and serve meals. Comfy bed. Large open rooms. Close to state park and other hiking in area. We loved being able to bring our dog, and he loved the property and the wrap around deck giving him looks all around. We would like to experience a different season next time. Fall was amazing and I’m guessing Spring and Summer would be too!
