Check
calendar for availability
NOTE: You must reserve your cabin either by email or phone contact
BEFORE you make your payment on line. While I try to keep the availability
calendar up to date it is important you assure the dates are available with
personal contact BEFORE making the deposit. Thank you.
Important: I always send out an
informational postcard when I receive a deposit. Be sure and let me know if
this is a surprise or if you need the postcard sent to a different address
than is on your check or PayPal deposit.
We strongly recommend that you do NOT use your GPS
to find us. We have great directions on our web site coming
from all directions. If not clear call us for the best directions.
Our address does not show up in the GPS/navigational systems. If it
does, it seems to take the long way around and has caused some people to be
lost for hours.
Cell phone coverage is not the greatest here. Verizon and Alltel seem
to do the best.
We now have generators for those rare occasions when the electricity goes
out.
Plan on bringing any food type items. There is usually salt and pepper
and other condiments but don't count on it. We do provide coffee and
popcorn. But bring everything else that you require.
We recommend you pick up your food on the way down.
Harrisburg has a Kroger and a Super Walmart. There are some
small markets for items but especially vegetables are limited.
We do provide wood for the fire, but bring something to start it such as
fire starters, lighter fluid, newspapers, fire log, etc.
We do not provide charcoal for the grills anymore. If you want to
grill out bring your own charcoal and lighter. There is a gas grill at
the pavilion near Deer Run, Bear's Den and Cougar Bluff and there is a gas
grill at Eagle's Retreat. All cabins have charcoal grills and a fire
pit with wood provided.
Cancellation Policy
Refunds given for cancellation if notified 14 days prior to check in. If

Our cabins are in a private setting with forest all around. Bear's Den,
Cougar Bluff and Deer Run are in the same general vicinity.....far enough
apart not to be intrusive - but close enough to use for family gatherings.
You cannot see our house, but we are nearby on the property. Our guests feel
secure, but have their privacy as well. Coyote Hollow and Eagle's Retreat
are a short distance away from the other three cabins and are close enough to use for family
gatherings, but far enough apart not to be intrusive. We are just off a very
beautiful blacktop which wanders through the Shawnee National Forest. The
only gravel road is our lane to the cabins.
Rules & Regulations
Bob and I have lovingly put a lot of effort into making the cabins cozy and
comfortable just for you....Please leave them as you found them. Out of
thousands of guests we have only had a handful leave dirty dishes or trash
the cabins. That says a lot. We thank
you........
We are extremely pet friendly. We do not charge extra for pets. But, we do
expect pet owners to clean up after their pets - especially pet hair.
Pets should not be left loose or uncrated when you are gone from the cabin.
The most well behaved pet will get upset if left in an unfamiliar place by
themselves. If we continue to receive the wonderful cooperation from pet
owners we will be able to continue our policy of welcoming pets.
As of 9/30/2009 we have a two dog limit. As
always, make sure we know you have pets coming with you.
-No smoking
-No fireworks
-We feel you will not be comfortable if you have more than four adults in
either of our two smaller cabins. if you want to squeeze one more in the
Bear's Den, it is
ok with us - but no more than five. Cougar Bluff and the Bear's Den are cute
and wonderfully appointed, but they are not large. Consider Deer Run, Coyote
Hollow or Eagle's Retreat if you need more room.
We suggest you bring plenty of bug spray and use it. We keep the cabin
area mowed but
there are insects in the area in the summer time....if you get in the weeds
or bushes while you are hiking or fishing you should protect yourself with
bug spray. Remember, your furry friends will be low to the ground and
may bring bugs to you. We have the old time chiggers and a
nasty little biter called a turkey mite. I call it a mutant chigger.
They really itch when they bite. Just wear bug spray...try to stay out
of the weeds and you should be fine. Ticks are here as well especially
in the Spring and early Summer. Just be prepared.......You are in
and near the woods. |
