The whippoorwills are calling!

Perched atop Suck Creek Mountain, this little cabin is the perfect space for a free-spirited getaway. The interior features funky design and the exterior offers numerous comforts (do you enjoy hot showers under the stars?).

Whether you prefer to hike through Prentice Cooper State Forest next door or kayak Suck Creek, Mother Nature has graced this area with a little something for everyone!

The space

Whippoorwill is 1/4 of the "Songbird Neighborhood" at the newly-created Talking Water Nature Retreat. Talking Water is a family-run business located on an 82-acre strip of land, a mile of which runs along Suck Creek. Our family has worked tirelessly since April 2022 to repair damage done to the land and make it better than it ever was. The most recent part of this (after stabilizing the land and building cabins) has been expansion of our hiking trails along the property.

Our primary intent is to host large groups (up to 25 guests) for family reunions, friend trips, business retreats, religious/club gatherings, etc. We have created this space for people to come together while also maintaining their privacy.

There are 4 cabins, Chickadee, Whippoorwill, Goldfinch, and Blackbird. Each include their own sleeping (for 6-7), bathing (indoor full bathrooms plus outdoor showers), cooking (full kitchens plus outdoor campsite grills), lounging (patios, porches, and decks), and indulgences (such as electric fireplaces, tv, wifi). Outdoor showers are available for use from last frost to first frost each year.

At the center of the neighborhood is the Songbird Pavilion. The pavilion features an outdoor kitchen with an electric griddle, sink, and cabinets. There is a firepit, chairs, benches, and tables. Also, nearby are the slide, tetherball, and hiking trail. The guest laundry and games/extra toiletries are available a short distance away in the garage.

Cabins may be rented individually or as a collective (one listing for 4 cabins - Goldfinch remains under construction at this time).

Guest access

Rental of Whippoorwill cottage includes the cabin itself and the outdoor space directly adjacent. Also available to the guest are the community pavilion and the guest laundry room inside the garage.
