The Waldo Cabin was perfect for my stay in the area. I enjoyed the many decks around the home and the walking trails to the creek. I highly recommend this home rental as it is convenient to everything while you're enjoying your own quiet and secluded retreat surrounded by the beauty of nature and Talladega Creek.

This cabin was great! It had everything we needed. It was easy to get to. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen had everything needed to cook our meals. Den was cozy. The screened in porch was one of our favorite spots to sit and drink coffee. The trails and creek were exactly what we were looking for. Maggie was a perfect host! She answered all of our questions and was so knowledgeable about everything. We hope to come here again soon. PS: Bring a black light with you so you can see all the tiny critters lurking in the woods!

This is our second stay here, we love it! It’s so quiet and easy to unplug from our electronics and enjoy the peace and quiet. The creek is great and the kids enjoyed playing and exploring in it. It’s great that they provide everything! Games, movies, fire pit, grill, pictures of what you’ll see around the area and so much more! There is a train that goes past that may turn some people off but ear plugs and noise machines are provided in all the bedrooms so we were not bothered by them. Again love this place and the owners are super nice as well and reached out several times! We will definitely be back!

Nice property with lots to explore! The creek is so peaceful and it’s a nice little walk just bring a stick to knock down spider webs along the way ;) Loved sitting on the screen porch and roasting marshmallows by the fire pit. Already talking about the next time we visit family staying here again.

I was looking for a retreat, in nature and close to good hiking, and this was perfect. There is a long, lovely walk on the property down to Talladega Creek, and it's also just a few minutes from the Pinhoti. The cabin itself was comfortable and cozy warm, even when temps fell to the teens. Maggie was conscientiously helpful and gracious.

Our family had an amazing stay in this Waldo property! Very comfortable home with everything we needed to cook and grill our meals. Plenty of blankets for chilly mornings. We loved the back porch with the view of the woods and saw some beautiful birds! Cheaha State Park and several hiking trails are a close drive away. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

My husband and I both work in IT and were so excited to find a perfect getaway without any Wi-Fi! It was the perfect getaway our little family needed. We read books, watched old movies, explored and fished in the stream... It was just a gorgeous place to be and escape from the world. The home was so well equipped with everything you could need & with Talladega only about 10 minutes away, we wanted for nothing. We fished & hunted for fossils in the creek, but couldn't do it without really good water shoes & balance. Those rocks are super slippery & we had a couple of falls, but enjoyed so much. We couldn't get down to the deeper part of the creek by the bridge because it was overgrown, but seeing the bridge and learning about the history there was super cool for my kids. We definitely cannot wait to visit again. Maggie was just a gem and we're so thankful for finding her & the beautiful home here!

Tucked in to the woods, secluded location. Well furnished interior and exterior. Enjoyed sitting in screened in porch, drinking coffee and listening to the birds. Make sure to follow path at end of driveway down to the creek/river. Very relaxing.

From the moment I booked the reservation, Maggie was a communicative and welcoming hostess.Although it was just the two of us, we enjoyed having the space to spread out around the house.The kitchen was ready for preparing meals, and each room was comfortable and clean.

The cottage had everything we needed. It was a great place to disconnect. The screened in porch was wonderful and it only took a short time to get used to the trains that came by occasionally. We enjoyed the great hiking in the National Forest, which was the main reason we came to the area. All in all, a very relaxing time.

My hound dog and I really enjoyed our stay. This is easily one of the most well-stocked rentals we’ve ever stayed in. You name it, they have it! Maggie is a very sweet and gracious hostess. The porch was where we spent every morning and evening, like being in a tree house! Pro-tip for light sleepers, grab the front bedroom with the desk. The trains are a bit quieter in that room. Also, if you are a really light sleeper, the trains are loud. But it’s not unmanageable. Maggie has gone to great lengths to provide everything you need for a restful night. I see why everyone loves this place, we’ll be staying with Maggie & Co again in the future!

Getting away from everything. A lovely place in the deep Alabama woods. You are virtually invisible to everyone. Pick up everything you need at Wal-Mart in Talladega and enjoy your week of serenity. The screened porch is a great place to listen to the sounds of nature. We had the best week with our grown sons (53 & 47). And Maggie is a wonderful host.

Our family had an amazing stay in this Waldo property! Very comfortable home with everything we needed to cook and grill our meals. Plenty of blankets for chilly mornings. We loved the back porch with the view of the woods and saw some beautiful birds! Cheaha State Park and several hiking trails are a close drive away. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Tucked in to the woods, secluded location. Well furnished interior and exterior. Enjoyed sitting in screened in porch, drinking coffee and listening to the birds. Make sure to follow path at end of driveway down to the creek/river. Very relaxing.

My husband and family came to experience a little of Talladega National Forest and to attend a Bigfoot conference in the area. Our son really enjoyed the creek which provided soooo much entertainment for all of us. We do have dogs and we appreciated the remoteness of the home that allowed our dogs to be a little free(er) than a usual rental. I highly recommend tick repellant and for ypur animals to have a tick pill...not a collar as one of ours had just a collar and we were constantly picking ticks off of him. The owner Maggie had a bunch of information on the local area and what attractions were nearby. Ive already recommended this rental to my friends and family!

We enjoyed our stay, the cabin is homey and beds were comfortable. The screened porch is especially nice to sit on and listen to the birds sing early in the morning. Maggie ( owner) is very nice and responds to your text quickly, I had to call once and she answered the call and was very helpful.

We had a wonderful stay here! The host was extremely communicative, always making sure we had everything we needed, and was very quick to respond to any questions we had throughout our stay.The property itself was super cute, peaceful, and secluded which is exactly what we were looking for. The walking path down to the creek was well maintained and made it easy to explore. Our children and dogs absolutely loved swimming and wadding in the creek and all the little adventures that came with exploring it.We enjoyed the screened in back porch. It was perfect for having meals after grilling and also relaxing in the evenings while winding down from the day. The location was also convenient, only about a 25 minute ish drive to Talladega Speedway. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you.

Great place for a getaway! The GPS is a little off, but that’s the only negative about the stay.
