NEWLY RENOVATED IN 2026
Our Scandinavian Cabin was completely renovated in 2026 with upgraded insulation, a mini-split climate control system, and design touches that make it comfortable year-round. Clean lines, natural wood, and a minimalist layout that feels calm without feeling empty. This cabin is ready for every season.
THE SPACE
At 230 square feet, the Scandinavian Cabin is compact and intentional. Everything you need, nothing you don`t. A plush queen bed, a kitchenette with mini-fridge and microwave, and an in-unit Keurig coffee maker. Dishes, pots, pans, and utensils are handled through the bathhouse cabinet system (grab clean ones from the cabinet, return dirty ones when you`re done, and we take care of the rest). The full bathroom has a large shower, and there`s a Smart TV for downtime.
Step outside onto your 150-square-foot private covered deck in the woods. Morning coffee out here hits different. You also have your own fire pit and propane grill at ground level.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Climate Control: The Scandinavian Cabin has a mini-split heating and cooling system with upgraded insulation, making it comfortable year-round. Note that on the very coldest of winter nights, the temperature inside could get as low as 62 degrees.
Woodland Setting: Our cabin sits in the woods, which means occasional insect visitors are part of the experience. You may encounter ladybugs, beetles, the occasional spider, and various flying insects inside. Ants can also find their way in if food or crumbs are left out, so keeping surfaces clean goes a long way. We use natural pest treatments and maintain regular cleaning, but complete bug-free living isn`t possible in a forest setting. If you need a fully sealed indoor environment, our Scandinavian Cabin may not be the right fit.
THE PROPERTY
Explore our 18 acres of naturally maintained woods with hiking trails, a peaceful pond (say hello to our friendly Muscovy ducks!), two creeks, and quiet spots perfect for reading, photography, painting, meditation, writing your next hit song, or simply relaxing. A creekside meadow surrounded by tall grasses, thousands of ferns, and delicate Lady Slippers makes a great spot for a picnic or some quiet time. You`ll likely see whitetail deer and wild turkeys wandering through, especially at sunrise and sunset.
Our quirky flock of ducks and chickens roam the property freely, keeping mosquitoes and ticks naturally low. Seriously, it`s amazing how few mosquitoes you`ll encounter, considering we`re in the Tennessee woods!
The trade-off for greatly reduced mosquitoes and ticks is some periodic noise from our hens and roosters. We keep the chickens contained in the Coop until 8:00 AM. After 8:00 AM, you will hear periodic crowing, and the hens may perform their `egg song` after laying an egg, because they are very proud when they do!
They`re friendly, harmless, and always appreciate leftover snacks. The chickens and ducks may hang out around your unit. Consider them your personal mosquito and bug extermination crew.
Our Friendly Border Collies: Four Border Collies live on the property with us. They stay in our residence or their secure kennel except for supervised bathroom breaks and exercise. They never enter guest units. You may occasionally see them outside under our supervision. They are 100% non-aggressive but may enthusiastically run up to you expecting pets and attention.
ADVENTURE AWAITS
The Caverns (19 mi): This isn`t your average concert venue. Descend into a massive natural cave where the temperature stays a perfect 59 degrees year-round, and the acoustics are so pure that PBS films performances here. Named ACM`s Theater of the Year.

Greeter Falls (7 mi) - Boardtree Falls (7 mi) - Bridal Veil Falls (11 mi) - Foster Falls (12 mi) - Laurel Falls (12 mi) - Blue Hole Falls (20 mi) - Machine Falls (28 mi) - Rutledge Falls (38 mi) - Fall Creek Falls (43 mi), Tennessee`s highest at 256 feet
State Parks & Trail Systems:
Savage Gulf State Park (13 mi) offers some of the most dramatic gorge scenery in Tennessee. South Cumberland State Park (15 mi) connects to over 90 miles of hiking trails. Fall Creek Falls State Park (43 mi) is Tennessee`s most-visited state park.

The Scandinavian Cabin at The Getaway on Ranger Creek sits in a beautiful, secluded, and quiet remote area on Tennessee`s South Cumberland Plateau, central to state parks, hiking, waterfalls, The Caverns, and Fast Farms MX. However, the closest grocery store is an 8-minute drive, the closest restaurant is a 10-minute drive, and the closest gas station/convenience store is a 7-minute drive. We recommend stocking up on groceries before heading up the mountain.
Guests will need their own vehicle to reach and enjoy the property. Ride-sharing services are extremely limited in this area and should not be relied on. If you`re attending a show at The Caverns or Bonnaroo, private shuttle services are available. Details are in your Digital Guidebook, or you can search online for current options.
This isn`t a luxury resort; it`s a genuine nature experience. If you want perfectly manicured grounds, room service, and zero wildlife encounters, this isn`t your place. But if you want crickets at night, birdsong in the morning, and nothing on your schedule but the outdoors, you`re going to like it here.
