I was told I would get a text message the day of check-in with the code to get into the cabin. I did not receive it. By going back through my paperwork, I found a phone number and was able to contact someone. He tried several times to get the email to go through, but it did not. Why could he not just verbally tell me the code? I don’t know but he asked for a second phone number. Fortunately, I was not alone and he was able to get it to go to my husband‘s phone. I appreciate it was a minimal cabin, but there was not a mirror in the entire cabin. Do other women not come their hair when they stay there? Do people not check themselves before they walk out the door?
First time staying at Postcard Cabins. Pleasantly surprised, had everything we needed. Cozy and relaxing time for our 20th anniversary. Columbus and Nashville IN were great cities to visit. Little confusing on what complimentary items were included in package.. Carmen lot was very private and to our liking.
1 towel and washcloth for a week was not sufficient

Well maintained cabin with good equipment and facilities and amazing views into the forest. Good privacy and very quiet. Only downside was my check-in process, which was very stressful - not designed for international visitors.
The only 2 improvements they could make seeing the place is so well secluded/hidden away is better signage on where to turn to get there, and once the cabin is assigned give the exact GPS coordinates to where you park your car at the cabin so arriving at night, by GPS takes you to the exact spot where you are supposed to be, seeing it is exceptionally dark there at night.
Everything was great…supplied firewood, lighters and s’mores!! Very clean and comfortable. Not many/any places to eat…but if you bring your own stuff to cook/make…all is good!

Be aware these are not cabins, they are trailers, much smaller than they appear in the photos. The area around them was beautiful but unfortunately the “cabin” that we were meant to stay in had bugs crawling all over the inside coming in through the big window that was the selling point. Privacy wise the neighboring cabin was visible from the windows of ours. Bugs were in the bed and when we texted the property manager they said “it’s that time of year” and offered to have someone come clean it (the last one to clean it smashed bugs into the window and you could tell they just bombed the bugs that where in there) or to move us to another cabin. When we asked for some kind of refund (we weren’t looking for a full one but something back) we were told “I’ll see what we can do” and haven’t heard anything since. Wouldn’t recommend to anyone at all unless you’re into the idea of ants gnats and whatever else that could’ve made it in there crawling on you all night.
This is my second time at the Postcard Cabins. It’s a wonderful weekend getaway option. I love the location and how quiet it is!
My only suggestion is to improve the communication. I had to call the Cabin staff to get information regarding my check in process. I did not receive the code and cabin name by text message until after 4 pm.
