Thank you for this beautiful rental, my partner & I had a lovely time spending Valentine’s Day here! Everything was exactly as described, and truly even better than we imagined. Perfect views, a large firepit with lots of firewood, and such a vibe inside the tiny home. Definitely recommend for anyone needing a scenic getaway 3

Thais place was the perfect get away

The host were amazing. The location was perfect you feel secluded, but you’re also right down town. The cabin was clean and extremely well kept. I will be staying here again.

Cabin was cozy and clean! Great location...close to everything you need yet feels isolated so very peaceful. The coffee bar was stocked nicely but if your avid coffee drinkers like us, bring some extra K Cups or a reusable k cup for your coffee. Outdoor areas were fabulous!

Retro Cabin

Great views of the river in a wonder small southern town. Very quiet area near downtown Sparta. Very well planned out with one of the coolest showers I have ever seen. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. Will plan on staying here the next time we are in Sparta.

Perfect getaway

This was our second time to stay at the cabin and it was perfect. They have so many artistic touches so it is a very cool vibe inside and the fire pit was very relaxing outside at night. There are several restaurants and a couple of breweries nearby that were all great also. It is very centrally located to numerous hiking spots and state parks. If you have other couples or family, there are two more cabins in the same area to rent which would be perfect. Great place!

This property is amazing. Very quiet, nature is really all you'll hear. Some friends booked the cabin next to ours and we had a blast being able to sit on the deck, listen to music on the record player, play boardgames, and relax. This property would be an every-weekend kind of visit if possible. Zero complaints
