The space The original cabin was built as a simple one room dwelling with a screened in sleeping porch in 1964. Over the years rooms were added and spaces remodeled. In 2015 two garages were converted to be a self-contained apartment for the owner to live in while the main house was used for a vacation rental. Now those spaces are flipped so the apartment is the side that is available for short term rentals. Access to a fenced yard is included with this rental and is suitable for dogs although it is not recommended that pets are left there unattended for many hours at a time. A separate dog kennel can be available by request. Guest access A private deck overlooks a fenced yard with woodland landscaping. Bird feeders allow guests to watch many varieties of birds as well as squirrels and other wild animal visitors. A gas grill is on the deck and a fire pit is located in the yard. Guests may also make use of the lower level deck overlooking the slough which is accessed via a stepping stone path. Personal kayaks may be launched from the landing on the riverbank. Fishing is allowed from the bank as well. Other things to note Tahlequah is the Capital of the Cherokee Nation. There are many historical and cultural venues for guests to tour.
