Definitely would book here again! The cabin was a great size, absolutely beautiful and clean on the inside. The location is great too! It’s far enough to still feel private but not too far from civilization and right down the road from the beautiful lake! It was the perfect halfway point stop on my long drive across states with a dog!

Great tiny house for an overnight stay in the area for my son and me. Would enjoy an opportunity to stay here with my wife sometime in warmer summer months and do activities at Lake of Egypt. Perfect size for a couple to get away for a relaxing weekend.

We loved this micro-cabin! Very clean, had everything one would need. Appreciated there was no extra charge for pets! We have travelled a lot over the years and this rental had the most comfortable bed I've ever experienced when travelling. Allison was so flexible when our travel plans had to change due a family member's hospitalization. Highly recommend this little slice of Heaven.

Great tiny home! Interior was modern and nicely decorated. Plenty of space for two people. Loved the outside even more! Pond looks fun for warmer months. Fire pit was our favorite for the October day and the owners supply wood, which is a nice touch. We came for hiking and the property is close to lots of trails! 5/5 would stay again!!

Meet The Host

We built these cabins in 2017 after a great experience hosting guests on our 50 foot motor yacht on Kentucky Lake. We loved chartering, but decided to find a way to bring our love of our own experiences closer to home. Our goal is to finish with 5-6 cabins and a large pavilion for gathering space.
