Amy was an absolute pleasure to deal with. The cabin was exactly what we were looking for. All the furniture was comfortable, views were great, a nice quite location, just great all around. We will definitely be back and look forward to staying longer next time!

This was a wonderful place to spend the weekend with my family. Not so small that we were suffocating each other, but small enough that we did in fact spend a couple days together. Would definitely stay again.

Follow directions to Zimmerman Rd. Zimmerman will curve to the right but continue straight onto the gravel road. (Patoka Village Rd) When the road curves to the left you will continue straight onto the drive. You will pass one cabin on the left, WildHeart is the second and last cabin on the left side. You may notice a red stop and do not enter sign , that property belongs to the neighbor and is a private drive from the gate on. Parking is preferred to the right of the cabin in front of the deck.
