This property was purchased by my husband and I in 1980 from Margret Cetera mother of Peter Cetera lead singer of the band Chicago. When purchased the home was a small non descript cottage with a pole barn in the back field. It has grown to support grape, blackberry and muscedime vines.The original home has expanded through time and around 20 years ago, the pole barn was converted into a large 1200 square foot cabin with modern conveniences. My husband and I actually enjoyed living full time in the cabin for a period of 5 years before returning to reside in the main house. The cabin consists of 1 large common space room with sitting area and kitchen. The antique farm sink has hot and cold running water. Also available is a large refrigerator, toaster, microwave oven, hot plate, coffee pot and portable dishwasher. The antique Hoosier cabinet holds cooking utensils and silverware and located above the kitchen counter you will find plates, bowls, cups and glasses for your use. The water is well water, pure and delicious without chemicals. The cabin is equipped with a full size pool table for our guests enjoyment. The master bedroom offers a comfortable sleigh bed, full bathroom with shower and just outside the bedroom is a comfortable patio to enjoy, complete with table and chairs for two and outdoor fire place. Also available is a twin bed tucked in the corner of the area between the main room and bedroom. For guests wishing to continue their exercise routine, a modern treadmill is available as well. Walk the spacious well landscaped yard with multiple seating venues including a large hammock. For a quiet night of movie enjoyment, bring your favorite movies and make use of the DVD/VCR machine and wide screen television. Approximately 12-14 television channels are available via outside antenna. This cozy cabin offers something for everyone; book your stay today.We have a converted pole barn cabin on 3 acres of land.

Friendly hosts.

Cool, quirky, barn renovation with accommodating hosts. We liked the decor, pool table, fire chimney, and proximity to cute towns. Hosts were helpful with activity suggestions and helped us plan the route to our next destination. A much more interesting experience than your typical motel.

Holliday Hideaway is a fantastic little retreat! Lots to do within the walls of this homey retreat! Play a game of pool or try your hand on the vintage pinball machine! If you had rather stay in on a cold day, the buckstove will keep you nice and cozy while you read a book or watch some tv.

The Holliday Hide Away is a very cozy home, complete with a pinball machine and pool table. The wood stove kept us quite warm, and the Christmas decorations were a friendly touch.

The Holliday Hide Away was exactly what we needed to end our 2017 and begin our 2018 year on a high note. Deb was amazing, she waited for use to arrive and had the place warmed up for us. Any questions we had she answered. The Tims Ford State Park is near by and I highly recommend checking it out. We did the midnight hike to ring in the new year. We will be back for another get away in the spring, which Deb told us is beautiful. It was really cold all three nights, but there was plenty of pre chopped fire wood to warm us. When you stepped outside the door in the early morning there was a sense of calm in the air that I can't quite explain. The 1970's pin ball machine was fun and we enjoyed reading in the little sitting area the most. If you're feeling the stress of your job or your relationship is a bit strained this is the place to get away and get centered. Pull the plug and get a book or two and stop by this place. It is worth it!
