Guest rating: 5.0 / 5
Overview
Cabin on the Farm w / Axe Throwing is a smoke-free, air-conditioned cabin set on a rural 200-acre farm in Anniston, Alabama, surrounded by cattle and horses. It’s designed as a quiet countryside retreat with a strong “do-things-on-site” focus, pairing outdoor space with a rustic-meets-modern interior.
Space & Layout
The cabin is arranged for groups, with three bedrooms plus a loft. A kitchen is provided for self-catering, supporting longer stays and family-style meals.
Amenities & Recreation
On-site activities are a centerpiece here, including axe throwing, a hot tub, a fire pit, and games such as pool, darts, corn hole, and board games. Guests can also use a wood-burning smoker for BBQ, and there are walking trails through the woods on the property. A nearby watershed dam is about a five-minute drive away, with canoes and a trailer provided.
Location & Nearby Highlights
The property sits within reach of North Alabama’s outdoor and cultural attractions, including Talladega National Forest and Dugger Mountain Wilderness, as well as the Doctor Francis Museum and Carlton Ward Theater. For sports and events, Golden Eagle Stadium and Paul Snow Stadium are local options. Birmingham–Shuttlesworth International Airport is about 102 km away, and dining in the broader area includes Calhoun Steakhouse (~8.8 km) and Jacksonville options such as Effina’s Tuscan Grill (~9.5 km) and Lost Pizza Co. Jacksonville (~9.8 km).
Best for
This cabin is best for families and friend groups who want an activity-rich rural stay: axe throwing, hot tub soaks, a fire pit, pool table, and outdoor games are all on-site. It also suits travelers coming for local sports/events (nearby stadiums are noted), especially if they’d rather stay in the country while still being within driving distance of Anniston/Jacksonville dining.
Travel tips
Plan to arrive by car and expect a rural setting; most restaurants and attractions listed are several kilometers away, and Birmingham–Shuttlesworth International Airport is roughly 102 km from the property. If you want to use the nearby watershed dam, allow time for the short drive and coordinate your day around water time since canoes and a trailer are provided. For golfers, Pine Hill Golf Course is noted as about 10 minutes away.
