Terry's cabin is a head above other cabins you may have stayed in: it doesn't have the typical, sparse loft layout that is so common, but is much more of a home. Well decorated, clean, and cozy, it was just enough for 5 people, with a few opting to sleep on couches or air mattresses. It definitely is off the grid, but the only time you might notice in a negative way is the hot water, which is more of an art than a science. It wasn't a serious problem, as Terry provides detailed instructions. The location is as described. There are places on the property where you can look off into the woods and see neither man nor the handiwork of man. I was able to meditate with the sunrise each morning on the hilltop, surrounded by nature. The only surprise, though not an unwelcome one (given we ran the cistern dry one night, and Terry was quick to have it refilled it within the hour), is that Terry is down the drive in a camper. This wasn't a problem for our group, but I wouldn't recommend this cabin for noisy revelers. Another note on the drive: the 4WD recommendation is for real; we had to take one vehicle without it due to a breakdown, and while it made it up, it required a little trial and error to get the proper path, even with instructions. A few more miscellaneous things: there was plenty of firewood, there are numerous activities within a short drive (kayaking, hiking, and spelunking) and there are decent restaurants in Bristol proper; if you plan on renting watercraft: we only found one marina that rents, and it only rents Thursday-Sunday. Cootie Brown's does indeed serve "Real Food," [sic] as it indicates on their sign, and The Cave Pizza has some of the better pizza I've had outside of the Northeast.
In summary, this property is a subdued retreat with modern comforts and authentic cabin living, close to a small city with enough dining and shopping options for a week or more, and within striking distance of dozens of trails, several caves, and a first-class lake.
