The Chubby Frog was absolutely perfect! The location was private and surrounded by nature. Close to all the hiking trails. The cabin itself was well stocked with everything you need to feel at home plus more. Very clean, which we truly appreciate. Tons of room for everyone to be comfortable inside and outside. Loved to hot tub!! To anyone who has this cabin saved as an option, just do yourself a favor and book it. Thank me later!!

Chubby Frog Cabin was the very best rental ever. Everything was beyond what we could have ever imagined. The rental was well stocked…from candy to snacks to smore supplies to firewood and so much more. It was so incredibly organized and clean. The binder with endless information was so informative and helpful. The details and instructions were superb. The host was super responsive. The exterior property was well maintained. So many memories made. Thank you Chubby Frog Cabin.

We had an amazing stay! The cabin is lovely, in a private location, so peaceful:) there are many bird feeders on the property, affording up close sightings of finches, cardinals, etc. Excellent communication from our host, comfy beds and perhaps the best equipped rental we have ever had the pleasure of staying in.

One of the best places I have been to in several years of going to different places for a little mini vacation vacations. There was so much stuff there that we didn’t need to bring because it was already there. This would be a great place for a family and their children. I recommend it highly.

We had a fantastic weekend at this cabin over OU’s Dads’ Weekend. The cabin was very clean, and the hosts go out of their way to make sure the cabin is stocked with everything you need for your stay. The property is secluded and private. We enjoyed the trails, fire pit, decks, and game room. While it was just 2 of us, there would have been more than enough room for our family of 5.
