Cabin was very nice clean beds we're comfortable lake front was a plus would definitely stay here again

We loved our stay in the lake santeetlah cabin! It was beautiful and we enjoyed being on the lake, canoeing and swimming near the dock. We enjoyed the fact that there’s essentially no cell service and wifi is pretty much non-existent! Thank you for sharing your cabin with us!

Upon arrival we were instantly excited and in love with the cabin. The old time charm, peaceful surroundings and mornings on screened in porch enjoying the 10 or more varieties of bird chatter made for a vacation of relaxation. Nice fire pit area. All though fish weren’t biting enjoyed time on water. Easy boat launch access 15 minutes away. A must Joyce Kilmer Forest. Amazing hike. But can’t say enough about the cabin and grounds. We didn’t want to leave. Will be back!

Absolutely charming old-world cabin with all the modern comforts! Saying we enjoyed our stay is hardly saying enough. The house is terrific, with the character and quirks of historic spaces but wonderfully restored and updated so it provides easy living. We thoroughly enjoyed fires at the outdoor firepit and the ease of the electric fireplace for that extra-cozy atmosphere inside. The location was terrific for our daily hiking outings and it was a pleasure to unwind and play games around the table in the evenings. The owners are quickly and easily accessible if there are any questions at all--friendly and very helpful with tips about local food and rec options. House is well-appointed for a getaway so it was easy to get in and settle in--they even had the whole house well lit for our nighttime arrival so it really was like we were coming home for a spell!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this historic log cabin. It is so cozy and inviting…a perfect place to refresh and relax. It was too cold to be outside for long but sitting on the dock all bundled up was so peaceful. My family loved our time there and we would definitely stay again.

Renting this cabin was the best decision I made this year! It’s hard to pick a best part of the stay: the beds and linens were awesome, and we saw plenty of extras if we would have needed them. The canoes and the dock were amazing. The porches were lovely. The decor is lovely. The remodel is classy and the original aspects of cabin are incredible. I was charmed! The owners and their support team (cleaner and handyman) were so polite, efficient, and thorough. The owners are quick to respond helpfully when there was a random issue - the neighbor accidentally shut off the wrong water line when winterizing their cabin- and within 10 minutes of telling the owner, we had the property caretaker present to fix the situation and water restored. He explained there was backup water if anything happened, which makes me think the owners planned for contingencies well! This is a great place for a group who likes to have fun together and is tolerant of noise (the floors are squeaky and you can hear convos from floor to floor). There are many outdoor places to spread out and have quiet time. The scenery is lovely on midOctober. Truly, there’s no reason to leave a 10 minute radius from the cabin… the national forest is even better than the national park. I can’t say enough good things about this property and how significant the time was for our family - experiencing beauty and togetherness.

My husband and I had a great stay at the cabin! Beautiful location and awesome property! Great hosts! We will be back!

I absolutely love this place,the history of the cabin is so fascinating and the cabin is beautiful.Location is great.And to be able to walk around the house to a huge dock and fish.Wow!The owners are awesome,very attentive to everything you need.Answer all questions that might come up.

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. There are so many thoughtful touches with the decorations. The bedrooms are just as beautiful as they look in the pics and very large. The beds were all very comfortable. We really enjoyed the screened in porch on the back. It was rainy for a good bit of the time we were there so we spent a lot of time on the porch playing games, reading books, etc. The kitchen was well stocked. The only thing I couldn’t find was a strainer but a pot lid worked just fine. The outdoor area is great. So many spots to enjoy. We made s’mores one night. We also rented a boat and the dock worked just fine for that. There are some trees down in the creeks back to the property but an experienced boater can easily navigate around those. It is an older cabin so there are creaks in the upstairs floor and cracks in the walls where critters would come in and join us occasionally, but it was too be expected with the age of the home. You are truly off the grid at the cabin. The Wi-Fi is very poor, but it was a good thing for us to enjoy an electronic free time. There’s a basket of dvds in the living room that we enjoyed as well. The lake is absolutely beautiful too! Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property!

My family of five had a wonderful time at the Santeelah log cabin. The cabin is well-stocked, comfortable and very clean. The walk to the dock is very short and easy. The lake is gorgeous. The neighborhood is quiet, and the lake turns into a stream that is very pretty if you walk up the road. The owners are quick to respond to questions. We especially enjoyed the firepit, which is tidy and very pleasant, with fairy lights strung across the area. There also is an outdoor grill that was very clean. We ate dinner on the screened porch or at the picnic table outside, though there is table indoors and another on a covered deck. We loved that there were canoes available, though we ended up not using them. (We rented a boat one day and went to the NOC another day. There is excellent hiking in the area, which we enjoyed.) The only negatives are that the ceiling of the TV room is the uninsulated floor of one of the bedrooms, so be aware if some of your crowd likes to go to bed earlier than others. Also, the WIFI is weak. We had some trouble streaming a movie and gave up (though the owners have a stash of DVDs available for viewing) and neither my husband nor I could connect to our remote offices. We were at a party tonight and recommended this cabin to a friend. We would love to return!

This lovely, historic cabin was a great place to meet family for the weekend. The owners were wonderful to give lots of info and thought of every detail. The cabin is gorgeously decorated and perfectly appointed. The indoor space was beautiful and relaxing with separate space for all in our party. The screened in porch was a favorite place for morning coffee and watching the evening sunset. The kitchen had everything we needed. However, we spent most of our time outdoors. The cove is peaceful for fishing, kayaking, canoeing, and floating. We found the trout stream off the left side of the dock and our teens caught their first trout! To the right, we paddled to explore the lake and find rope swings. It was so fun and peaceful. The outdoor spaces with twinkling lights, fire pit, outdoor dining table, etc. were also fabulous at night. After catching fireflies, we made smores and lingered until the fire went out. Plenty of seating on both the dock, deck, and firepit areas. If you want to relax - - this is the perfect place. Amazing weekend - - we will definitely be back!

The cabin was thoughtfully decorated. The closets and cabinets full of everything you need! Kid friendly access to the lake and fire pit. We threw the baseball in the front yard and we had space to use our telescope. The porches had beautiful views of the lake and wildlife. The kitchen was fun to cook in and plenty of seating to eat. Bedrooms and bathrooms furnished so that you feel right at home. What a wonderful home away from home!
