The cabin was exactly as described. Secluded and quiet while still being near the lake. Amy was very quick to respond to questions and friendly

2 nights at Misty Oak Getaways

I enjoyed my stay at Misty Oak Cabin. It was everything I needed and nothing I did not. I loved the seclusion. I don’t know what a holiday weekend is like, but I think I could count on one hand the number of cars and trucks I saw pass in front of the cabin. With that, I was about 10 minutes away from fishing at Bennett Springs. Everything in the cabin was neat and well kept. Check in and check out was seamless. Rachel always responded to messages within a few minutes. Next time I need seclusion, Misty Oak Cabin is definitely on my list.

Weekend Trip to Misty Oak Getaways

The cabin was really cute and clean! Had everything we needed. I highly recommend staying here if you’re in Bennett springs especially in the hot summer months when camping isn’t always ideal.
