We absolutely love Southern Star. The porch and hot tub were where we spent most of our time just enjoying the quiet and peace of the surroundings. There are other cabins around, but they were quiet and we still felt isolated, which is what we wanted. Beautiful place.

Beautiful cabin in a peaceful setting! Saw several deer outside the screened in porch. In a great location close to DeSoto Park and the federal preserve. Perfect place for a quiet weekend away.

Great place to stay. My family and I needed a place to go for the weekend to get away from the storms and we had an amazing time. We had a great time. Spend most of the time on the amazing porch playing games that they provided.

This cabin was everything and more. My husband and I spent the weekend and did not want to leave. We wanted to bring the porch home with us! Everything was wonderful!

Very seldom do I leave a trip not ready to hit the road. I did not want to leave this place! So beautiful. Such a cute town. Clean space. The swing bed on the covered porch is where 99% of time was spent. Such a nice getaway! Can’t wait to go back!

This cottage is so relaxing. We actually changed our plans to make time to enjoy nature on the beautiful screened in porch. We want to plan a trip in the fall and stay here again!!

This was a girls weekend trip, and we had a wonderful time. The house is just as pictured, cozy and comfy. Brief concern early in our stay, but it was minor and was so quickly addressed, I won’t even explain. Great house, great host, would go back!

Perfect weekend getaway. If you love nature and seclusion, but not too far from civilization this is the place for you. Lots to do if you like to hike or just relax. I did both !!! The cabin/house was clean and plenty of space to gather.

Southern Star was an amazing, peaceful getaway. The house was very clean and well stocked in the kitchen. The area was quiet and relaxing, while also being within close driving distance to The Wildflower restaurant, shops, and farmers market. Cathleen always responded quickly if we had any questions. We loved soaking in the hot tub and relaxing on the porch. Overall this is a BEAUTIFUL place to stay, and we will definitely be coming back!

The Southern Star is a beautiful cabin with everything you could want to escape and relax. The hot tub was wonderful, and the fireplace a delight on our cold mornings and evenings. The location is ideal if you plan to hike the state and federal parks in the area. Most trailheads are 10 minutes away, the farthest was 20. Our timing was perfect because the rains gave the waterfalls (lots of them) all they could handle, and we saw very few people on the trails. Deer greeted us on our arrival to the cabin, and we hated to leave. Cathleen made a change in timing easy ( one mouse click), and we look forward to our return. Stay here!
