This is a great cabin for 2 to 9 guest. Location is excellent minutes to Patoka Marina , winery and restaurants. 25 minutes to French Lick and casino, as well as other restaurants. We have a Hot Springs hot tub that holds 6 maybe even 7 comfortably on the back screened in deck. There is a queen in master and a sofa sleeper on main level. In the loft there are 5 twins, 2 are trundles that can be lifted to make 2 doubles if you have couples. So the sleeping option are up to you. We have a nice little round drive for extra parking and possible boat... We are nestled in a wooded lot with distance from neighbors for your privacy. We have a firepit on the side of cabin . There is a full bath on main level as well as a washer dryer and a half bath in loft to make it easier for a bigger groups. Kitchen is well stocked coffee maker ,toaster ,blender, dishes pots, pans, cookie sheet etc. Also provide coffee and filters.. Usually have creamer as well..Patoka marina is 5 to 7 minutes away and we have a park pass for guest. This is a gem in a very relaxing spot to get away and sit back and enjoy the nature all around or hit the Lake . French Lick Casino is just a short drive. Snow birds can enjoy Paoli Peaks 35 or so minutes away. Hoosier hills is 15 minutes away for hikers. Patoka winery is 2 minutes away as well as Bennys off the water.

We have been enjoying southern Indiana for 25 years. Our stay was the celebration of our marriage for that long to each other. We have over the years stayed in a lot of different cabins but none like this one was. From the time we got there and opened the door after that we never wanted to leave. The accommodation were excellent everything was pretty much provided buy the owners. Couldn't have asked for a better time. Thank you very much and yes it is a definite must stay again cabin. We will be returning for another delightful and enjoyable week.

Carol, not sure how many hand towels are expected. 2 down stairs and one up stairs is my usual and never had someone unhappy about that. Otherwise glad all was well. We try to give our guest everything needed, will make a note of this and continue to make Cardinal a nice get a way. Thanks for staying.

Super cute and cozy cabin!

Awesome, kind, super communicative property manager. A really nice cabin - a gorgeous state of the art hot tub, cozy places to sit and spend time together, superbly clean place! Pro tip - Difficult to find groceries nearby, so plan your grocery pickup well before getting into Birdseye.
