Monthly Rentals in Trail of Tears State Forest

This is a truly magical location that offers a serene atmosphere perfect for relaxation. It's easy to immerse yourself in the beauty of nature right on the property through forest bathing, and it's also conveniently located near state parks, as well as various food and drink options. Bonnie and Paul have created a stunning, private space where I felt completely safe as a solo traveler, knowing they lived nearby. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and hope to return in the future.

Host was quick to answer questions and check in was easy. Place was very clean, had a lot of space and well stocked for stay. Was ten minutes from Bald Knob Cross and about 25 minutes from Carbondale. Had breakfast at Iron Whisk in Cobden and was great.

This is the second time I stayed in this particular location. The first time wasn't an anomaly. Awesome stay. You can tell Monty takes pride in his location.

We had a great stay at the pale black dot! It was decorated so beautifully inside and the nature was beautiful outside! We loved and enjoyed all the extras like breakfast items, snacks, and tea/coffee! Erica was very responsive and helpful with recommendations too!!
