Secluded Area on Upper Kings River @ Chimney Mill Cabin. . . Quiet & Peaceful

Chimney Mill Cabin is located in a secluded and remote area at the upper head of Kings River, high in the beautiful mountains of Madison County. Our cabin is surrounded by a peaceful, quiet setting, that introduces you to the sound of the river and abundance of nature. Sitting on the wrap-around porch, enjoying the quiet tranquility in the natural wilderness area--relatively untouched by man--brings a feeling of peace and contentment and makes one not want to leave.

Chimney Mill Cabin is named for the old grist mill that once stood at Kings River Falls. The cabin will accommodate 8 overnight guests in 2 king beds, 1 queen bed, 1 futon bed, and 2 and 1/2 baths. It features a fully equipped kitchen, large farm table in dining area seats 10, second table seats 4, kitchen island seats 4, electric fireplace, Dish Satellite Service, and wrap-around porch (the south side is screened in). Wrap-around porch has several chairs and tables that allows one to sit and enjoy the wildlife and listen to the river. The cabin is only a few feet from Kings River close to the Buffalo National River Area and many well-known hiking trails. This is the perfect place for hikers to enjoy the popular hiking trails in this area.

Time has changed many things, but not the beauty of the Kings River area. The river still tumbles clear and pure over the rocks. Several smaller waterfalls lead the way to the largest fall known as "Kings River Falls." The old grist mill, known as Chimney Mill, once stood where Kings River Falls is located. Here the water cascades over the rocks into a pool of clear blue-green water. This is an ideal location for those who love to hike and see the "beauty of the wilderness." Kings River Falls area is a hiker's paradise.

Girls Trip
We loved the property! Loved the space, all accommodations and overall feel of the cabin!! The only thing that we'd have liked is a heads up on the very long red dirt and gravel road. It would have also been nice to be able to access WIFI so we could have planned our 2 day trips from the cabin after seeing the layout of the area.

Disconnect to connect
This property is one of my favorites because we got married here but also because there isn’t any cell signal or WiFi here. Being disconnected from technology helps to focus on being present and connecting with the people you’re with! I also love how close it is to hiking and water. This was our third trip and we will definitely be back!

Relaxing and fun
Beautiful views in every direction. Great hiking and swimming. No cell coverage or internet (a huge plus!). Daily sightings of musk rats, rabbits and deer. Choruses of birds and tapestries of clouds. The cabin is relaxing and roomy even for my family of 8. The dining room table is just the best.

Relaxing Getaway
My husband and I hadn’t taken a trip alone in a couple of years, so we were ready for a peaceful respite. Chimney Mill Cabin was in a remote area and perfect for a long weekend getaway. It was very clean and comfortable with lots of space. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking and the bathrooms were stocked with plenty of towels. We really enjoyed exploring outdoors and hiking to King River Falls. The view and the waterfall were so beautiful. We drove to Huntsville a couple of times, which is about 30 minutes away, to dine out and fill up with gas. Granny’s Kitchen has the best Southwest omelet I have ever tasted. Our favorite place to be during our visit was relaxing on the porch having coffee while watching the deer grazing and the red squirrels scurrying about in the yard. The only complaint we have is that we didn’t book it for a longer stay. We definitely want to return in the Spring. Thank you for a wonderful visit!

Peaceful and Secluded Getaway without Sacrificing Comfort
This place is my favorite to unwind and relax from the stresses of life. You can just feel the stress leave as you sit on the porch with a cup of coffee and listen to the sounds of the water. The wildlife love to put on a show as well!

Perfect peace and quiet
Although we were staying there to be near family in the area... this property all by itself a perfect remote getaway in the mountains. We only wish there were some kind of basic Internet/wifi because there is no cell service up there. Some could see lack of connection access a plus though. A landline phone is provided which does solve some of this.

Peaceful getaway
We had a wonderful 3rd stay at this beautiful property. Hiking down the river with the cooler weather was very enjoyable. And spotting the local animal life from the beautiful porch with no interruptions from work/email was just what we needed. Already planning for our next adventure here. Everything was perfect, the cabin gorgeous with everything we needed and the property very well kept. Thank you for checking on us and being available if we should need anything, but especially sharing your amazing cabin with us.

We could not have been happier with our stay! The cabin was absolutely gorgeous and have everything we could have thought about needing and the location was perfect! We were an hour from just about everywhere we wanted to go. It was just what we needed to relax and unwind. The owners were very nice and easy to work with. Mrs. Joan had so many detailed, easy to follow directions to things we could see and do around the cabin. It was perfect! We could not have asked for anything any better. We definitely look forward to staying again in the future!

Both the cabin and location are absolutely phenomenal!
When Joan says she has a fully stocked kitchen she means it!! We did not lack one thing for our family of 8 during our seven night stay! When we got home EVERYONE commented how rested and relaxed we looked and sounded. We have tried to express to others all of the beauty and majestic views but it’s almost impossible. There aren’t words to describe the running brooke just outside the cabin and the beautiful hike to the waterfalls and the peacefulness of the solitude. The cabin was absolutely perfect! The wrap around porch was incredible!! We’re absolutely planning our next trip here. We left feeling more relaxed and refreshed and renewed than we’ve been in years. We’re SO VERY GRATEFUL Joan and Jerry have opened this cabin for us to stay!! Thank you!!!
