Wildflowers blooming in the Shawnee National Forest: WIFI and Private Hot Tub

Spring is coming, the daffodils and tulips are pushing through the soil with a promise of warmer days ahead in the Shawnee National Forest! Many trees have lost their leaves, but their buds are swelling so you have spectacular views of canyons and cliffs. Enjoy hiking or the bike trail (we have two bikes for guest use) and now we have an electric bike rental business right down the street. It's a great time to get outdoors!

While you are here you can go inside & relax with your favorite shows streaming on the 55" TV or go outside for a soak in the private hot tub. In the living area, we have added a desk, chair, and computer (WIFI is fast) with shortcuts to our favorite trails, restaurants, and activities such as ziplining, kayaking, and horseback riding. Use the keyboard to explore or search the internet so you can “know before you go”. Watch your favorite shows on our 55" Smart TV with Roku (55" Smart TV -Paramount+/Discovery+/Amazon Prime available or sign into your Netflix, Hulu, etc.)

We have an electric fireplace under the TV which is so nice for the evenings. Stay connected with Alexa & fast WIFI. Grill/cook inside or walk to nearby restaurants.

#loveourguests “Oh my goodness!!! We have stayed in several vacation rentals, but this place tops them all. The hospitality was beyond anything we expected. The decor and amenities are fantastic. The minute we walked into the place, our kids (9 and 11) asked, “Could we please come here every year?!!!” There were four cozy white bathrobes for all of us to enjoy on a cool evening after relaxing in the hot tub. This very well might be a “regular” stopping point for our family! :)”

• Hot tub with five seats and a lounger. It has extra wide steps and a handlebar for easy entry and beautiful lights for night. Seats have different style jets for a relaxing massage. We keep the water temperature around 98 in summer and warmer in winter. We provide spa robes and towels for your comfort in going out and in the hot tub.
