Looking for a remote cabin away from other people? Forests, Creeks, Cheaha!

Need a place to unwind and relax? No other houses are in sight of the Waldo cabin. You can take a relaxing few days away from the crowds and worries of our current world situations. Spend some time in the country for a few days and reconnect with family, friends and nature!

Triple Creek Farm is on the banks of Talladega Creek overlooking the historic Waldo Covered Bridge and old grist mill. Gold used to be mined in the local area and many modern day prospectors come from far and wide to pan Talladega Creek for gold. The farm is 20 acres of oaks, dogwoods, pines and wildflowers surrounded by the Talladega National Forest, with no neighbors in sight! It is nestled in the foothills of the Appalachians at the base of Cheaha Mountain.

You may want to spend your days fishing or tubing the creek or exploring the incredible spring display of wildflowers such as trillium, wild geranium and red buckeye. Perhaps you would enjoy mountain biking the miles of Talladega National Forest roads or the Chief Ladiga Rail Trial near by. Love hiking and backpacking, the Pinhoti Trail, the longest trail in Alabama, is just 2 miles away. Maybe you are a road biker and want to climb from Waldo up to the highest point in Alabama, Mt Cheaha. You can ride your bike out of the Triple Creek Farm drive way and do this.

Just a few miles away is Majestic Caverns Park, where you can explore a deep underground cave, and spend the day enjoying their many family fun activities.

Waldo is just outside the Talladega city limits. Talladega is home to the historic Ritz Theater and the annual April in Talladega pilgrimage of homes. So much fun to choose from... but, perhaps you just look forward to relaxing on the big front screened porch watching birds at the feeder and the lazy creek roll by.

Then, of course, if you are a Nascar fan... Waldo is just down the road (about 20 miles) from the Talladega Superspeedway! Planning to come to Dega to drive a race car on the fastest track in all the land? After a fast paced day of racing, come stay in the country and relax!

There is a full kitchen, but if you'd rather not cook, hop in the car and run to Talladega, 6 miles or Oxford, 20 miles, for a selections of restaurants, shops and movie theaters.

Feel free to contact Maggie for more information. She spent over 20 years exploring the mountains on foot, by bike and on horseback! You will find maps of the area and lots of information on things to do, when you arrive at the cabin.

We loved this cabin in the woods!
This cabin was great! It had everything we needed. It was easy to get to. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen had everything needed to cook our meals. Den was cozy. The screened in porch was one of our favorite spots to sit and drink coffee. The trails and creek were exactly what we were looking for. Maggie was a perfect host! She answered all of our questions and was so knowledgeable about everything. We hope to come here again soon. PS: Bring a black light with you so you can see all the tiny critters lurking in the woods!

Homie style stay with beautiful scenery
My husband and family came to experience a little of Talladega National Forest and to attend a Bigfoot conference in the area. Our son really enjoyed the creek which provided soooo much entertainment for all of us. We do have dogs and we appreciated the remoteness of the home that allowed our dogs to be a little free(er) than a usual rental. I highly recommend tick repellant and for ypur animals to have a tick pill...not a collar as one of ours had just a collar and we were constantly picking ticks off of him. The owner Maggie had a bunch of information on the local area and what attractions were nearby. Ive already recommended this rental to my friends and family!

Great stay in Waldo!
Our family had an amazing stay in this Waldo property! Very comfortable home with everything we needed to cook and grill our meals. Plenty of blankets for chilly mornings. We loved the back porch with the view of the woods and saw some beautiful birds! Cheaha State Park and several hiking trails are a close drive away. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Unplug and relax
This is our second stay here, we love it! It’s so quiet and easy to unplug from our electronics and enjoy the peace and quiet. The creek is great and the kids enjoyed playing and exploring in it. It’s great that they provide everything! Games, movies, fire pit, grill, pictures of what you’ll see around the area and so much more! There is a train that goes past that may turn some people off but ear plugs and noise machines are provided in all the bedrooms so we were not bothered by them. Again love this place and the owners are super nice as well and reached out several times! We will definitely be back!

Great house, great host, great visit
Getting away from everything. A lovely place in the deep Alabama woods. You are virtually invisible to everyone. Pick up everything you need at Wal-Mart in Talladega and enjoy your week of serenity. The screened porch is a great place to listen to the sounds of nature. We had the best week with our grown sons (53 & 47). And Maggie is a wonderful host.
