Mom's getaway
It was four mom's needed a little getaway and relaxing. We had a great time, the property was amazing, cabin was great, even when we had a little problem, we were able to contact host and he quickly fixed and everything else was perfect for us. Only thing I'd say the direction after we got off the highway, signs on the roads were almost invisible and the map and google link was taking us down a mile or two past road to middle of nothing. We made several U-turns and drove around before we found it.

Peaceful getaway
We spent a late fall weekend exploring the beautiful property. There are creeks and trails to explore. We enjoyed the outdoors and the fall leaves in the trees. The host was very helpful.

Hunting Party
This place is great. It is set up for a quite place to relax and get away from the city or to hunt for hogs. I spent a week here and came back relaxed. I highly recommend this place. The owners are some of the nicest people I have met.

Peace
Sojourn Lodge is a very quiet & peaceful place with beautiful trees. The tiny home has a full size refrigerator & stove that we needed as we don't eat out much. The A/C was very cold & the beds were comfortable. The owner responded quickly to any information we needed. We highly recommend this little parcel of peace in the woods with a beautiful 10-15 minute drive to Jacksonville!

Cabin in the woods
Nice cabin! Close to Jacksonville and Rusk. We didn't have the chance to explore the property but our stay was nice. The communication with Susan was great - thank you!
