Great cabin and location!
We spent most of our time hiking, but this cabin was very nice. It would definitely be good for a family with all the outdoor space, games, etc. Check in and communication were great, and the location to Shades State park can’t be beat. We will definitely stay again if back in this area.

Most Relaxing Stay in a prime location for parks
Cabin was just what we expected from photos, though the cleaning crew needs to step it up a bit. Rustic and extremely relaxing yet not lacking amenities. Absolutely fantastic location, night sounds and views. Proximity to parks was incredible & easy. Host was very responsive and wonderful to work with. We would highly recommend.

Cabin in the Woods
We stayed 2 nights and spent most of our time at a nearby family reunion. The yard was very nice. We loved hearing the owls. We didn’t use the fire pit or grill but they looked nice. We only had a few complaints… one of the family members had problems finding the cabin and called the provided phone number but never received a call back. She had to wait at a local church until another family member arrived to help. As for the cabin, there were quite a few cob webs (hanging on pictures and walls by bed, hanging over the couch, etc.), and some of the living room furniture seemed older and run down. All in all, it served our purpose.

Location
The location is the attraction of this place - forest on all four sides. The owners seem to be doing a good job on the upkeep of a cabin in the woods - we understand how challenging that can be. Its locale is our family's "go to" place in the state of Indiana and has been for 56 years.

Wonderful Property!
We had 4 generations visit the cabin and all of them absolutely loved it! Clean and spacious! We went to our annual family vacation at Turkey Run but the cabin became the favorite! Gabe was fantastic and very responsive to any questions and requests! Many family memories were created here and when we come back, we will stay here!

Great location for hiking both Turkey Run and Shades State Parks. Rustic decor excellent for two well-behaved but large Labrador Retrievers. Would be super for an active family, too, with plenty of space indoors and out.

Fabulous house in the woods
This property is beyond fabulous! The house is cozy and well stocked and the outdoor area is so much fun! The seating around the fire pit is perfect (no need to pack camping chairs!), the hot tub is big and the hammock and children’s swing are perfect touches! The hiking is fabulous and the privacy is excellent!

Perfect nature getaway cabin
My group of 12 had an amazing time at the cabin. The location to the hiking trails walkable from the cabin was a great feature. The house was clean and well stocked. Communication was amazing and the owners clearly know what they are doing. Being secluded in nature and not hearing any outside noise was so relaxing. Will definitely be booking again in the fall.

Home Away From Home
This was our second summer in a row staying at this awesome cabin! It is so close to Shades State Park and Turkey Run State Park that you barley have to use your vehicle while staying here. The cabin itself is very cool and rustic chic! We were pleasantly surprised to find that the cabin was updated even more since we last stayed! The cabin is also very clean and we never feel like that is compromised while we are here. This time during our stay we encountered a random derecho storm towards the latter half of our stay. We lost power and had to stay a night with no electricity. Thank God we had a fireplace to use and it was still fun and cozy! This place already holds a special place in our hearts. Truly, our home away from home!! :)

Spring Break Get-away
The cabin was cozy and comforting. The wood burning fireplace was perfect for the March weather. The master bedroom was spacious and the bed was very comfortable! Even though it was March and nothing was green we really enjoyed the woods and the deer activity. With hiking nearby we didn't even need to get in the car to drive anywhere. The hot tub was enjoyable too for that time of year!! Would love to come back during the summer months!!

We had a great time! Proximity to Turkey Run and Shades was perfect. We prepared all our meals in the kitchen and loved all the outdoor spaces, especially the upper deck and firepit area. I would love to come back in the summer and fall to see the many trees on the property with leaves!

Cozy Cabin Great Location
This is my second stay at Sugar Creek Resort for a weekend of hiking Turkey Run & Shades State Parks. The cabin has the perfect location - about 15 miles fromTurkey Run & a mile from Shades. The cabin had everything my sister, nieces & I needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen is well-stocked, the beds comfortable, the fireplace cozy & the hot tub heavenly! Both of my visits have been in the winter, but the beautiful yard with a covered grill, fire pit & table and chairs would be great fun in the spring, summer & fall. The check-in / check-out process was seamless & Gabe checked in via email to make sure our visit was going well. Thank you for the wonderful weekend!

Excellent location perfect for families
My family (wife, 3 kids, mom, and dogs) and I needed a quiet place to get away for the week. This lovely cabin could not have been better. It had great views, great location, and a hot tub. The trail to shades state park is right next to the property. It is wonderful hiking. I love how quiet and peaceful it was, but still with all the great amenities. We can't wait to come back again.

Great place to stay with friends and our dog!!even had 2 dog dishes Loved the outdoor space, grills, firepit(which could of been dug out some) chairs provided hot tub and wood on site, just leave some $$Huge bonus we like our fires.If you like to watch tv only one downstairs, bedroom,loft and bathroom upstairs with balcony to have coffee. Kitchen had all you needed, fridge did have missing shelves on door, not a big deal, had electric stove, nice washer and dryer and towels were provided, My suggestion bring your big beach towel for getting out of hot tub. Couldn’t figure out dishwasher but just washed by hand. Internet is spotty, expected tho your in the woods Great time and will be back next year! Thanks Gabe
