Linda C. Oct 16, 2025 12:43:15 AM
Summary: located in the woods, we loved staying here. It was pet friendly, had woods to roam, and a pond to fish and kayak
Heather T. Aug 21, 2025 11:05:27 PM
Summary: Great stay-beautiful spot!
Carol W. Aug 21, 2025 02:40:23 AM
Summary: Absolutely love the location! Being alone on the pond is wonderful. The water was great to swim and float in off of the raft.
Donda Y. Aug 19, 2025 09:58:36 PM
Summary: Secluded and peaceful! We spent our 25th wedding anniversary at this little cabin on the pond. Such a great spot to enjoy the birds, fish, and frogs. Mornings were spent drinking coffee while kayaking and the days and nights finding ways to beat the 102 degree heat. A few suggestions for anyone staying here in the summer: 1. wear water shoes to keep some of the mucky bottom of the pond off your feet and for general walking around the immediate property. 2. Flip flops aren’t the greatest here because the terrain is very slopped, slippery pine cones/needles, and generally uneven ground. 3. Bring a battery operated fan or three or a small generator to use the outlets for fans. 4. We brought a Milwaukee Tools M18 Rover Compact Folding Flood Light w/USB charger as the gas and solar lights are limited. You’ll need extra light over the stove if cooking in the darker hours.5. If sleeping on the sofa bed, bring a thick mattress pad! Horribly uncomfortable. Not sure the existing mattress could be considered a mattress. 6. Personal preference: bring your own water if you don’t want to boil pond water for dishes or refill shower bags with the same. Lugging water up the steep incline from the pond isn’t fun, IMO.You can hear other nearby houses and traffic coming from the main road but nothing disruptive. 1-2 bar cell service in the event you need to stay connected to the world. I advise against that! Great location to reconnect, rejuvenate, and relax! We’ll be back!

Summary: You have the pond and house to yourself, hidden away from the road; it's great escape from everything. Bring a telescope or binoculars, it gets legitimately dark and the stars are wonderful.
Nicholas T. Aug 11, 2024 03:16:53 AM
Summary: We had a great vacation on Jaybird Pond, swimming, kayaking, hiking and making family memories. Renters should know that the property does not have running water or electricity. The property managers help you figure out how to boil the pond water and use the propane lamps. If you’re willing to rough it, you can’t beat the experience of having your own pond.
Janet R. Jul 22, 2024 08:56:31 PM
Summary: We both very much enjoyed the cabin and the pond we were on. Only disappointment was we couldn't catch any fish except catfish. We still had fun, They provided a canoe but we also brought paddle boards. It was very peaceful and serene. You could hear the cars from the main road and the road going into the cabin is very rough. We had a small SUV and I felt I should of had a truck. All in all it was pleasant, peaceful and we were unplugged. I am heading back to work feeling refreshed.
Brystol T. Jan 30, 2024 07:21:05 AM
Summary: This is the perfect offgrid cabin to stay! Everything in one place we didnt need to leave! Close to town. We cant wait to go again. Owners are amazing!
jean p. Sep 30, 2023 11:01:02 AM
Summary: We loved our stay here! It was definitely one of the most relaxing vacations we have been on. The property is so perfect. We spent the day outside on the lake. We brought our paddle board with us and it was so nice to explore with. The house has everything you need. The beds were comfortable. We loved everything about it!
