Great cabin
This was perfect for what we wanted. We were less than 10 mins to the boat ramp. The cabin itself was just the right size for the 3 of us plus we could have fit more. We loved the fire pit with wood they supplied for us. Very quiet and remote. We will def be back for a summer trip.

Unplugged getaway!
Quaint cabin on dead end road; perfect for an opportunity to unplug and decompress. Cabin was well maintained and very clean. Host was outstanding in every way. Friendly, flexible, and very informative about area features and attractions. I would recommend, and would definitely book again when we return to the area. Thanks for a great weekend Tim!

Holds true to name “Serenity”
What a wonderful “countryesque” and truly serene stay my brother and I experienced. We were located about 25 minutes from Patoka Lake. We both would highly recommend to anyone seeking a little taste of southern Indiana countryside.

Tim was a great host. Serenity was a beautiful cabin in the woods and a great getaway from "city life." You are truly in the woods here, away from electronics and "super fast" mobile data services. If you are looking for a relaxing place in the woods and time to spend with family activities and games, this is a perfect place to stay.

We loved staying in this cute place! The big screened porch was my favorite spot. There are lots of places to sit and relax with family. Our group of 5 ate breakfast out there. Everything was very clean. The location is quite remote and quiet. Definitely a retreat. We would love to stay here again.

O privacy neighbor straight across from you staring at every thing you say our do. Even come out to start an argument. Everything else perfect. Owners need to put up privacy fencing. We have more privacy living in town.
