Cabin Testimonials

We Loved this cabin! We celebrated our 28th wedding anniversary here. So beautiful and peaceful. We plan on going back often to get away from "it all". If we could go anywhere, this would be the place! And the hot tub was wonderful!

May husband, Keith and I just moved our daughter into University of Evansville for her senior year, and then we came here for our first visit to celebrate our 30th anniversary. We fell in love with the place, and we plan to return some day with the rest of our family.
Being an English teacher, I'm very impressed to find a journal where guests can share their experiences here with one another. Although our visit was brief it was quite memorable and relaxing, and we hope to return soon.

This entry is going to be short & sweet...just like our stay.

My husband & I came to recharge our batteries. The peaceful setting and spectacular views have refreshed our souls. We're very grateful for this opportunity!

Spur of the moment decision to rent a cabin for the night. Me, my awesome fiance and my 2 year old. Coming in and setting up, starting a fire so relaxing, cooking up a pizza. And OH my God the hot tub.....in the snow. The best thing ever! This place is so nice and like 20 minutes away. We will be back. Hopefully on our honeymoon.

This weekend was one of the most relaxing I've experienced in a long time. My husband and I actually got to enjoy each others company without the drama that always goes on at home. The cabin is beautiful and the scenery breathtaking. We hope to be back soon.

We always love coming back to Derby! It is so relaxing to watch the river go by. Love to see the tug boats. We also love driving the scenic roads!

This has been a great place to start the summer! The weather has been perfect!
Want to say thanks for the opportunity to enjoy this beautiful cabin. It has been a very relaxing week.
I brought my 12 year old dog and she loved laying outside listening & smelling the river.
The hot tub seals the deal! It was so nice late at night, under the stars, with a campfire burning!
Thank you again for providing this beautiful cabin!

The name Utopia makes you think of a place of wonder, beauty, peace and tranquility with no problems whatsoever, the unattainable paradise. This cabin come about as close to that as I think possible. It is that one place I would imagine if someone asked me to close may eyes and focus on a peaceful, tranquil place "your happy place". For me, just imagining myself sitting on the balcony here can have a relaxing and calming day dream. The reality of this daydream is amazing.
My wife and I call Fort Wayne home and we were here about this same time last year and fell in love with the place. This year we've come back to celebrate 32 wonderful years of marriage. We married May 7th so many years ago in Vista, CA, may wife's home town. Our daily lives are busy and we always seem to be running to some schedule. Utopia has been ideal place to disconnect from all life's distractions and scheduled commitments and instead focus attention on relaxing, recharging, and reconnecting with each other.
The balcony is a perfect spot for star gazing. We brought a telescope along and put it together and used it for the first time here. Beautiful night sky-awesome!

We really enjoyed our stay and would like to make this a regular annual destination. We love to spend some time here in the fall or even winter. Thanks for sharing this beatuiful cabin with us. If you ever decide to sell we's love to make a bid. Sorry, I was so long winded.
Thanks again!

Enjoyed the cabin VERY much! The folks around here were friendly. Canoeing was a great deal of fun! Apparently there are 3 deer that visit regularly. They show up around dusk and are unafraid of cars and trucks. The turkeys on the other hand run at the sound of a camera shutter. Thanks for starting what is hoped to be a wonderful tradition.
