We enjoyed relaxing outside while our dogs roamed after a long car ride. Peaceful setting and the home had everything we needed for a relaxing evening away from the city.
Great place to stay for football weekend. Quick drive to stadium and Ubers were available as well. Great space for a group of 6. Very clean and nicely decorated The host very easy to communicate with. Could not have been better
This is a great place for anyone looking for a quiet and simple getaway. The cabin itself is very nice and was meticulously clean when we arrived. The location is great as you get the benefit of seclusion without being too remote. It close to town which was convenient for shopping and dining. The hosts were beyond accommodating and were readily available for questions. I would consider staying here again and will recommend to others!
We had such a wonderful time at this beautiful house! The property was incredibly relaxing and lovely. It was conveniently close to everything we needed while still letting us soak in the beautiful nature around us—truly perfect for our getaway!The only shower/tub combo is a bit high, with a handheld showerhead and a shower curtain. I’m 5'7", and the top of the tub reaches about mid-thigh for me. So if you have someone in your group who might have balance issues or difficulty stepping over higher surfaces, it’s good to keep that in mind. Thankfully, it worked out great for us since neither of us had any issues. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!
The cabin was impressive. Great secluded location. Very quiet. Just minutes from town. Super clean. The hosts are also top notch. Completely recommend.
We had a very nice stay visiting our son at UA. Beautiful house not a far drive to campus. If you love Mother Nature this is a spot you should check out

Hi John! We are so glad you had a great stay with us! We are so sorry for the mix-up on bathrooms- our management platform kept adjusting the bathroom count automatically, but I think we got it fixed now!
This cabin was fabulous! Perfect location and perfect setting. It had everything we needed and more. The location is awesome - a very earthy, woodsy vibe, but modern cabin. Beds were so comfy!!! Thanks!
Great house and beautiful setting. Worked great forOur purposes and was very clean. Constructive feedback: We were traveling with grandparents and the shower presented an issue. A few extra hooks for hanging clothes and towels would be a nice addition. Thanks for having us!

Thanks for the feedback Allison! We are glad you enjoyed your stay.
We had a great stay at the Black Warrior Cabin. Location is quiet and safe. Well appointed kitchen and several towels.The cabin could use some window treatments as the sun was blinding at times, and the hot water/shower/tub combo could use a little upgrade.Overall, we enjoyed our time to visit our daughter in college.

Respite during our final drive home to Lexington, KY
We found the perfect spot to spend the night and break our 12 hour drive up into a 2 day trip. We had dogs, 2 cars, and we were towing a trailer so needed a dog friendly location with safe place to park. The cabin is super dog friendly and the hosts were very helpful and accommodating!
We had a lovely stay at Cabin in the woods. It is a beautiful retreat nestled in the woods yet convenient to get to. Host was very attentive and friendly. Even though we could not get fireplace started we still enjoyed outside pit. The surrounding wooded land was breathtaking. We would rent again in future.

We are so happy you had a great stay! Come back anytime!
We had a wonderful long weekend for just the Taylor boy’s. It had been a while since we had all been together & never just the family boy’s. The cabin was a huge hit! All boy’s, being in a cabin & in the woods what boy would not enjoy that? Although not in the deep woods the location gave the feeling of being well out into the country. The cabin was new, clean, & had all of our needs more than covered. Josh was wonderful & replied promptly to answer the few questions that we did have. Thank you!
Josh is super nice. Accommodated us with any request we had. Response time was immediate when we had questions. Even dropped a pin so we could find the house easily. Highly recommend this location and noted to be away from traffic and the busy town which we loved.

We loved hosting you guys, thank you so much for staying with us!
We had an amazing time at the Black Warrior Retreat! The property is gorgeous! It was quiet and peaceful. The cabin is beautifully decorated in a modern, minimalist style. It is stunning! We slept comfortably in the beds and enjoyed the soaking tub! We made home cooked meals in the kitchen that was stocked with beautiful cookware and dinnerware! A quick 15 minute drive to campus was no problem at all! Can’t wait to go back to this property!
