I hate to give it 5 stars because we want to keep it our secret! If you're looking for a quiet and peaceful getaway then this is the place. Everything we needed for this weekend was found here. Even though it rained most of the time, sitting on the back porch looking out at the small lake and deer grazing was perfect. We'd definitely book again.

Pics on website were deceiving. Looked like you could drive up to cabin. For people in their 60's it was a little difficult climbing up and down gravel and timber steps. Other than that, the place was beautiful, well kept and we did enjoy our stay.

Upkeep declined
I have been trying to find dates open to stay here because my previous experience was 10/10! Unfortnately, this time I was so disappointed that we left after one night. My husband and I are in our mid 50s and live a country farm life, so simplicity is our style. However, safety and comfort are very important to us. 1. Indoor pest control needs alot of work. 2. Entrance to dock has board loose and I almost fell. Seating on the dock is loose and we were not comfortable using. 3. Beds are different and mattresses were uncomfortable. I hope this review will spark changes. This place is so serene, peaceful and beautiful, please invest in these amazing cabins.

Whipperwill hideaway
The cabin is beautiful and so is the location! Its very peaceful and description fits perfectly. A couple things id like to point out is one the bathroom has a strong urine smell at times and there is some rodent droppings on the mantle which looks like its been there for a while. There were only 4 things on it and if cleaning crew cleans or checks before arrivals thats something that should be cleaned. We feel the check in and out times are kinda unfair we pay for check in day and cant get there till 4pm the day is pretty much over at that point and we pay for the last day and have to be gone by 11am and the price per day stays the same those days. We will definitely be back to the area and possibly to the cabins we absolutely loved it.

Relaxing Getaway
Perfect place for a peaceful and relaxing getaway. Cabin was extremely clean.Caught a few fish. Pier was great setup to fish off. The porch had a beautiful view and was nice to sit under one rainy afternoon. Little shops near by. Saw a bear cub while out driving which was pretty awesome.Highly recommend staying and we plan to come back. Thanks so much.

Perfect little cabin in the woods. The pond is great and fishing is awesome. Being from the city with all the noise.. it was the best to unplug and be still. Will be back. Also, the Amish Market was great too.

It was a nice stay in Muddy Pond, Tennesee
I visited this cabin with my two friends for a long weekend as a reunion for the three of us. The stay was excellent as we enjoyed catching up with each other after 14 years of not seeing each other all together but for sad parental funerals. Three old guys aged 55 to 56 whom went to college together. We fished, we laughed and we cooked while partaking in many cold libations. The place was clean as any VRBO stays I've been to which is about eight or so times in the last fifteen years. Nice view of the private pond and we were able to laugh and be loud by ourselves without worrying about bothering anybody around us. The place was really appreciated. The fishing was fair and the weather was awesome. The local Mennonite community is pretty nice to go around and spend a few hours visiting local shops. Mostly foods, woodcraft and leather goods shops to see. We used the grill as well as the dock on the pond and especially the deck facing the pond to relax while there. Thanks for the great weekend visit. Five stars all the way!

Room for Improvement
It’s a lovely cabin in an amazing spot and we’d definitely consider returning and/or recommending this property. However, it was a bit annoying to find the heat not on upon our arrival - we had to wait a good while for the space to warm up, even with the gas fireplace and ceiling fan on to get the heat moving. It had been in the 30s and 40s (F) prior to our arrival. There were no throws to use in the meantime, so shoes and sweaters stayed on until bedtime. Not the end of the world, but not a cozy and welcoming first impression.
