Golden Anchor Cabins Guest Notes | September 2020

It is a long standing tradition for happy Golden Anchor Cabins guests to leave notes behind. Here are some of our favorite notes that guests have left for us recently. They always put a smile on our face! 🙂

9/13/2020  Classic Cabin – Surprise Engagement Getaway

She said yes!!!

Thank you for such a beautiful place to stay for my surprise engagement!  We had picked the area as a quiet getaway during a tough year and it truly lived up to expectations!

We loved touring Blackwater Falls State Park and Seneca Rocks on Friday and the rolling fog and rugged terrain of Dolly Sods made for a perfect proposal spot!  It was a joy to come back to the warm cabin each night for a soak and to curl up in front of the fire.  The town of Davis is also a gem!  Thank you for the hospitality & comfort of enhanced cleaning procedures!

A trip to remember!

9/10/2020 Serenity Cabin – A Douglas Falls Adventure

Thank you for the opportunity to stay at your beautiful, romantic cabin.  We were very comfortable here and had a wonderful time exploring the surrounding wilderness. 

Saw Blackwater Falls, hiked several trails, and then felt rather silly on our way to Douglas Falls after turning around on the gravel road twice, uncertain if it was an actual road or a hiking trail.  We finally got our courage when we saw another car venture down it.  When we finally made it to the end of the road & climbed down to the falls, we decided it was totally worth looking like knucklehead tourists!  So amazing!  Thank you again – we hope to return one day.

9/12/2020 Serenity Cabin – This Place is Amazing

Our breath was taken away when we first walked in.  Loved the dĂ©cor, it was peaceful, cozy had a romantic feeling to it, we knew right away we’ll be back next year.  We’ve never done anything like this for ourselves before.  It was way overdue and something we needed to get back on track.  we have been together for 17 years and married for 14.  Hit a speed bump this past long couple of years and finally are getting over it.  This place was amazing.  It will be a recommendation to all our friends and family.  We want to thank you for what you do for us couples.  Being alone together in a cabin in the middle of nowhere really does help.

9/7/2020 King Cabin – 10 out of 10 stars!!!

Silvia & I had a delightful time staying @ the King cabin.  To our amazement the cabin was found in an impeccable condition!  Much kudos to you both – your support staff  – GREAT JOB!!  We will definitely will be back more than once, we had a great quiet peaceful time, without any issues/complaints.  Keep up the great cabins, we will definitely recommend to others!  10 out of 10 stars!!

Very satisfied!

9/10/2020 Mountain Mist Cabin – So Cozy for the Two of Us!

This was our first vacation ever as a couple and we were in love with this cabin as soon as we walked in.  The cabin is beautifully decorated and is so cozy for the two of us!  We went to Smokehole for a cavern tour & it was great!  We also hiked at Seneca and Blackwater Falls.  Here at the cabin we enjoyed time by the fire pit & hot tub.  This will not be our last time here.  The locals were extremely nice & helpful.  We will come back to Golden Anchor Cabins in the future.  Thank you for making our honeymoon great! <3

Golden Anchor Cabins Guest Notes – September 2020

The Perfect Getaway

May 18, 2026

3 1/2 years ago we were searching for somewhere to get away for the weekend. We feel incredibly lucky to have discovered Golden Anchor. We now visit 2-3 times a year and every trip is as wonderful as the others. Every cabin is beautiful but Meadow has a certain feel to it that keeps bringing us back. There are so many places to explore but even if the weather doesn’t permit a day out the cabin is the perfect place to be.
