What guests think
Travellers describe Carol’s Cabin in the Woods in Historic Hoosier Hills as a peaceful, nature‑filled escape with spotless, comfortable interiors and beautiful grounds featuring wide porches, a pond for fishing or swimming, and easy woodland trails.
Guests repeatedly praise John’s friendly, responsive hosting and thoughtful touches, including local tips, extra towels, and the occasional welcome gift. The setting feels secluded and quiet, with Madison or Vevay roughly a 20–25 minute drive for restaurants or supplies. A few notes of caution mention an older‑style cabin, uncertainty over bedroom count versus a pullout, and a request for clearer, better‑maintained trail maps. Expect a serene cabin stay centered on outdoor time and relaxation.

Facilities
Outdoor amenities stand out: a pond for fishing and swimming, hiking trails, large front and back porches, a firepit, and plenty of open space for families and dogs. One review asked for clearer trail maps and minor trail cleanup.

The hiking trail was perfect for my 2 little kiddos. The property was gorgeous. The cabin was clean. The host was very responsive and stopped in to give us some extra towels. We’ve stayed at a lot of cabins. And we’ll be returning to this one. It was great. The front and back porch were huge and clean and great to watch the rain.

We met friends here to tour along the Ohio River on motorcycles. We all loved this cabin. The big, well stocked kitchen was large enough for all of us. The bedrooms had room for all our stuff. A couple of our friends loved walking the beautiful property each morning. Each evening we all sat out on the fantastic front porch for hours enjoying the peace and quiet and catching up with each other and enjoying a bottle of wine our host gave us. John, our host, told us of a local road to ride and it was a great ride. We decided we will come back next time later in the fall when leaves have changed. Really anytime of year this cabin would be a perfect choice.

John was very welcoming and hospitable. The property was private and allowed our dogs and four boys to run and be wild without disturbing anyone. The pond was great for fishing and the cabin was very clean and well stocked. Even though the cabin was not set up for small children, it was child proof enough that we could relax even with four boys under the age of 7. The only potential improvement would be having the wooded trails cleaned up a bit and providing a map or description so we had a better idea of where the trails went. With young kids, we need an idea of how long we’ll be hiking to prepare properly. Otherwise everything was perfect.

Stayed at Carol’s Cabin with my family for the weekend. The cabin was prefect for the seven of us including two children. The pond and the trails in the woods made it nice to walk the dogs. Plenty of room for outside activities. Went to Madison for the day which is about a 20 minute drive. We would stay again.

Exactly as advertised. Great spot for a family getaway. So peaceful and beautiful. Easy drive to downtown Vevay for restaurant and shopping options. Really enjoyed being able to take my dog on a walk through the woods. We spent many hours around the firepit in the backyard. We would absolutely stay here again.

A Peaceful Escape at Carol’s Cabin in the WoodsWe couldn’t have asked for a more peaceful and charming getaway than our stay at Carol’s Cabin in the Woods. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that John has poured a lot of love and thought into every detail.The cabin itself was spotless, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed—from a fully stocked kitchen to comfortable beds and thoughtful touches throughout. We especially loved the wraparound porch that let us take in the sights and sounds of nature at every turn.The setting is truly serene. Surrounded by tall trees and tucked away from the noise of the world, the only sounds we heard were birdsong, a distant owl at night, and the rustle of leaves in the breeze. Whether sipping coffee in the morning mist, roasting marshmellows in the firepit, or fishing in the lake, we felt completely renewed.John was a gracious host—responsive and kind. The hiking trails on the property and scenic drives made it easy to explore the beauty of Hoosier National Forest.If you’re looking to unplug, recharge, and reconnect with nature (or with each other), this cabin is a hidden gem. We’re already talking about when we can return.

You can definitely tell that the property is well kept and maintained. We loved hiking the trails with our dogs. The scenery is beautiful!

Really gives a peaceful feeling of being one with God's creation. Have never seen so many deer and wildlife in my life. The host is very gracious and helpful.

This is the perfect place to have a quiet nature vacation. The house was well-equipped and comfortable. The property outside has lots of space and trails to enjoy. The first half of the week had snow and we played in it for three days. Then it melted and revealed lots of trails and the pond that we really enjoyed. Highly recommend.

John was very welcoming and hospitable. The property was private and allowed our dogs and four boys to run and be wild without disturbing anyone. The pond was great for fishing and the cabin was very clean and well stocked. Even though the cabin was not set up for small children, it was child proof enough that we could relax even with four boys under the age of 7. The only potential improvement would be having the wooded trails cleaned up a bit and providing a map or description so we had a better idea of where the trails went. With young kids, we need an idea of how long we’ll be hiking to prepare properly. Otherwise everything was perfect.

Really gives a peaceful feeling of being one with God's creation. Have never seen so many deer and wildlife in my life. The host is very gracious and helpful. Will be back and you should consider it, too.

A Peaceful Escape at Carol’s Cabin in the WoodsWe couldn’t have asked for a more peaceful and charming getaway than our stay at Carol’s Cabin in the Woods. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that John has poured a lot of love and thought into every detail.The cabin itself was spotless, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed—from a fully stocked kitchen to comfortable beds and thoughtful touches throughout. We especially loved the wraparound porch that let us take in the sights and sounds of nature at every turn.The setting is truly serene. Surrounded by tall trees and tucked away from the noise of the world, the only sounds we heard were birdsong, a distant owl at night, and the rustle of leaves in the breeze. Whether sipping coffee in the morning mist, roasting marshmellows in the firepit, or fishing in the lake, we felt completely renewed.John was a gracious host—responsive and kind. The hiking trails on the property and scenic drives made it easy to explore the beauty of Hoosier National Forest.If you’re looking to unplug, recharge, and reconnect with nature (or with each other), this cabin is a hidden gem. We’re already talking about when we can return.

Property was beautiful. About 25 minutes from town. Great porches to watch the deer and wildlife. Host was so wonderful. Can not wait to come back and stay again.

Stayed at Carol’s Cabin with my family for the weekend. The cabin was prefect for the seven of us including two children. The pond and the trails in the woods made it nice to walk the dogs. Plenty of room for outside activities. Went to Madison for the day which is about a 20 minute drive. We would stay again.

Exactly as advertised. Great spot for a family getaway. So peaceful and beautiful. Easy drive to downtown Vevay for restaurant and shopping options. Really enjoyed being able to take my dog on a walk through the woods. We spent many hours around the firepit in the backyard. We would absolutely stay here again.

We wanted to get away for a bit and we hit the jackpot with this place! It was very clean, well stocked and a beautiful property. You can definitely tell that the property is well kept and maintained. We loved hiking the trails with our dogs. The scenery is beautiful! If you want a peaceful, relaxing experience to unplug and enjoy God’s creation, or quality time, this is your place! We definitely will return to in the future!

This is the perfect place to have a quiet nature vacation. The house was well-equipped and comfortable. The property outside has lots of space and trails to enjoy. The first half of the week had snow and we played in it for three days. Then it melted and revealed lots of trails and the pond that we really enjoyed. Highly recommend.

We met friends here to tour along the Ohio River on motorcycles. We all loved this cabin. The big, well stocked kitchen was large enough for all of us. The bedrooms had room for all our stuff. A couple of our friends loved walking the beautiful property each morning. Each evening we all sat out on the fantastic front porch for hours enjoying the peace and quiet and catching up with each other and enjoying a bottle of wine our host gave us. John, our host, told us of a local road to ride and it was a great ride. We decided we will come back next time later in the fall when leaves have changed. Really anytime of year this cabin would be a perfect choice.

We had a wonderful stay! We especially enjoyed fishing in the pond and relaxing on the beautiful property. John was very kind and helpful. We spent a day at Louisville Zoo, visited Clifty Falls State Park, and did some shopping and lunch in Downtowj Madison. It’s a great area for a familyvacation! Would absolutely recommend this property to others.
