Amazing little cabin for a mountain getaway! Close to lots of amazing waterfalls and a few small towns to get all that you need, this little cabin had all the essentials for a wonderful trip. Very cozy and clean, perfect for 2 people and a dog.

The Nest had everything we needed and was super cute and clean, with a very cool camping vibe. It was conveniently located less than 5 minutes from Gorges State park. We had a wonderful stay and would recommend it to others.

So cozy and a great location!

With pets

We loved our stay at The Nest! It’s super cozy and has all the amenities you need for a getaway. We especially loved that it was within 30 minutes of countless waterfalls, hikes, and mountain biking trails. The host, Lisa, is really sweet and had homemade brownies ready for us when we arrived. Even though we were close to the main home, it still felt very private. Enjoyed sitting outside by the fire (firewood was provided) and having dinner on the little porch. The bathroom was full functioning and we never ran out of hot water in the shower which we greatly appreciated! Parking was easy in our large van which was a nice bonus too.

Summer Camp Vibes

With pets

We loved our stay at The Nest! It was super cozy with a summer camp kind of feel. The surroundings were beautiful and Lisa provided us with extra treats upon arrival...brownies, hot chocolate, doggie snacks, etc. The backyard campfire situation was so nice at night as well. Beds were super comfy...We look forward to going back. There are so many amazing trails, waterfalls, and lakes around the area and this was the perfect home base for us while we went out exploring during the day.
