What a cabin!
Just had a great weekend here at this container cabin that had everything you needed. Great hot tub and grill, plenty of games and lots of cookware/spices if you are eating in. Wish I'd had booked one more night. Definitely will be back in the future!!! Beautiful place!

Perfect Cabin Great Location
We loved this cabin. The location felt isolated but was 5 minutes from everything. Cabin felt new and very clean. You can stargaze and even see the Milky Way. Host was responsive and accommodating. Be sure to check out Toad's Bar and Grill just a couple of minutes away.

Awesome place to stay
We had a great stay, and my only complaint is that I wish we could stay there longer. The property is exactly as described, very cute and clean. The views were amazing and the hot tub was a treat. We would give it 15 out of 10 stars if we could.

This was our second trip to this property. It's in a perfect location for access to all that Natural Bridge/RRG has to offer. The cabin was very clean, beds are comfy, and the option to purchase firewood was really nice. Would highly recommend staying here!

This was one of the coolest VRBO’s I’ve stayed in. It had plenty of space inside and outside. Everything was very clean and easily accessible. The beds were extremely comfortable and it was in a quiet, peaceful location. I would definitely recommend this property!

The shipping container cabin was unique and beautiful but the view out the window was amazing. The cabin had everything that you need. I’m not big on hiking but the hike to the natural rock bridge is a must. Breathtaking!!

Just WOW
This was the very cleanest place I’ve ever stayed and I’ve stayed in many VRBO’s. Communication was excellent. The location was perfect. Near everything. But far enough away to have deer and turkey in our front yard. The hot tub worked perfectly. The beds were very comfortable. I cannot say enough. You will not be disappointed.

SAY YES!
This checked all the boxes for my husband and I. It met our expectations which we do set the bar pretty high. Very clean and well constructed. The container is designed in a way when you walk in has a modern cabin feel with some unique touches. The whole property is secluded though in a great location for staying near or within the Gorge. The host Amanda was easy to get ahold if needed. Make sue you go to Toads bar/restaurant,just a few miles away. We will be back!

FANTASTIC!
My husband and I stayed here for a long weekend and we loved it. The layout is great, the location is great and the design is incredible with the container. We felt it was centrally located to a lot of the things to do in the area, but still very secluded while at the cabin. I imagine it would be great to visit during the fall when the leaving are changing, so we will definitely stay here again. Beds are comfortable, bathroom is small as can be expected but functional, kitchen is well stocked with cooking necessities, hot tub was great. We didn’t get to use the fire pit due to the weather, but it would have been great.
