About this property
Deer Trail
Nestled deep in the forest yet close to all the best outdoor adventures, Deer Trail is a welcoming escape for couples or solo travelers seeking peace and privacy. Its log-style exterior and warm wood interior set the tone for a stay that feels both rustic and refined.
Inside, you’ll find a comfortable living area with reclining seating, a TV, and an open kitchen equipped with modern appliances: everything you need for easy meals after a day of hiking or exploring. The bedroom offers a plush queen bed, while the bathroom and in-cabin laundry provide extra convenience for longer stays.
But the highlight awaits just outside: your own covered porch with a private hot tub overlooking the woods. Soak as the forest quiets into night, sip coffee in the fresh morning air, or sit back with a good book as you listen to the leaves rustle around you. With DeSoto State Park only 2.6 miles away and Little River Canyon less than 15 minutes down the road, adventure is never far — though you may find it hard to leave the peaceful comfort of Deer Trail.

Everything was perfect! This is the 2nd year in a row we’ve stayed here and celebrated our 18th anniversary this year. Only thing I would change is the shower pressure, but otherwise, perfect for a get away together. I also, suggest visiting the lookout mountain creamery!

Loved this cozy cabin! Favorite part was having coffee in the hot tub each morning, and even saw deer and an owl on our last day there. Close enough to town but with privacy and space to just relax. The Host was SUPER responsive and went above and beyond to make our anniversary getaway special!
