Close to Town and the Cavern

Nice location for a weekend stay to watch a show in the caverns, zip line, and head to town for a meal.

Nice Weekend Getaway & Show at Caverns

We had a great two-night stay at the Bird's Nest with another couple. It was very cozy, clean and we loved the location. Very convenient to the Caverns and a lovely spot in general.

Great Stay!

Had a great time just lounging and searching the surrounding area. We had the best weather and overall this was the best time of year to visit The Birds Nest at The Retreat.

It was okay but layout was poor for us in the bathroom and bedroom - too cramped.

Great little spot in the great outdoors!

We really enjoyed this tiny home in the woods! The fire pit is nice, and there is plenty of wood to burn. Kitchen is well stocked. The only thing that would make it better is a hot tub!

Wrong cabin but great experience

Thank goodness it was still barely daylight when we drove up or we would have never have found our cabin. There were ample directions for how to arrive at Deer Lick but none that described how to get to our specific cabin. We were given 75B as the address and we never saw a 75B. Nor did any of the cabins have signs with their names! I had the pin code for the door and literally had to go around door to door to the cabins that looked empty and resembled the pics of the one we rented. I tried all the keypads with our pin code until it opened the door. The cabin that unlocked with our pin code was NOT Bird's Nest. We can see from the VRBO site that the cabin we stayed in was "Tiny Haven". No worries, it was the perfect location in a little cul de sac in the woods and very clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again and will recommend Deer Lick to other people. But PLEASE give more detail in the directions. And to new travelers, arrive before dark!
