Well, I was just about to reserve a place at Alpine Lodge, but decided against it because my Mom and Dad are going to be joining us in Cookeville. So, looking for a cabin that we can go in on and all stay at. Does anyone know of any cabin rentals that are recommended or websites that I can take a look at? Nothing fancy, but enough room for 6 folks. Thanks guys!

There are a couple of state parks in the Cookeville area that have cabins. You might want to give them a try:

Edgar Evins State Park (just west of town on the shores of Center Hill Lake)
Standing Stone State Park (just north of town between Cookeville and Dale Hollow Lake)

Yeah, I looked at both of the state parks. Edgar Evins State Park really didn't have anything large enough, and Standing Stone was just a little bit farther than I wanted. Trying to keep it within 20 minutes of Cookeville. I have found some cabins around the area but most are booked up. I will keep searching...Thanks!

It has never taken me more than 20 minutes to get to Standing Stone from Cookeville.

Oh, that isn't too bad. Google maps showed 30+ min. I may reconsider then...Thanks!

If you do end up at Standing Stone, beware of the speed trap in the Hilham area. I think the speed limit goes from 55 to 35 rather suddenly, and the Overton County sheriff's department keeps a watchful eye on that intersection.

They had one 3 bedroom cabin left. All reserved. Looks really nice. I will be sure to watch out for the speed trap. Thanks for the heads up. What route do you take to get to Cookeville -- Hwy. 136 or 111?

Great! I hope you enjoy it! I always take 136 which becomes Washington Ave in Cookeville. If I have time this afternoon I'll drive up to Standing Stone just to make sure it's about 20 minutes from town.

Thanks so much! Even if it is just a little further, it will be fine. Looking forward to getting back to TN!! By the way, do you live in Cookeville now?
