About this property

Rustic River Cabin Getaway

Welcome to Timberline Trails on the Black River- The Redwood Cabin. As you pull into the private drive, you will discover a rustic cabin with a large cedar post wrap-around porch. Step inside the cabin to escape from the everyday hustle. This location has it all- 3 bedrooms (one queen bed, one twin bunk, and a king bed in the loft), 1 full bathroom (complete with a rustic whiskey barrel sink), a full kitchen (with limited pantry), and a charcoal grill and fire pit outside. It offers privacy and plenty of space to unwind inside or out. There is also a RV site available alongside the cabin for your camper for an additional fee. Did I mention it's located just a hop, skip, & jump from the crystal clear Black River? River access included at Brawley Hollow. Come explore nature, relax by the campfire, or soak up the sun at the river. Timberline Trails await you.

Great place near Black River

Great proximity to the Black River and private gravel bar. Secluded and quiet. The gravel road wasn't that bad! We had a truck and a Toyota Corolla. Just don't try to turn in the first entrance, pass the cabin then turn! Nice to unplug as a family!

Just what we needed!

We needed a reset from everyday life. The cabin was beautiful the porch is amazing! We enjoyed the river it’s one of my favorite rivers. It’s crystal clear and we love trying to find amazing rocks and arrow heads. Heather the owner has the house stocked with things you need. It’s best to travel to Ellington for groceries as there is only a dollar general in Annapolis. If you can float or canoe the river it’s a great experience! We truly enjoyed our stay and hope to be back!

Great, secluded spot

We had a lovely time at the cabin! We stayed for the total eclipse and enjoyed a quiet private viewing in the woods! Our two little dogs were very happy at the property. The road leading down is a little bit rough, but that is the last 3 mile leg of the journey. You can hike up a nearby hill for cell reception if you need to connect, but the best part of this cabin was unplugging and relaxing. The short walk down the road leads to the large gravel riverbank. Fun for fossil hunting, skipping rocks, and fishing! Thank you for your hospitality!

Unplugged Family Time

We celebrated my son’s 14th birthday with a weekend stay in the cabin and kayak trip from Jeff’s Canoe Rental. It was perfect!! Cabin had everything we needed including firewood. We fished, saw wildlife (buck whitetail crossed the river), lots card games, ate well, roasted hotdogs/marshmallows over the fire, and talked to each other lots! Very comfy beds. Very welcoming decor. Kitchen even had crock pot for a meal to cook while we floated. Highly recommend. My husband already asked when we were going again. Much easier than camping!

The entire experience was great! I will come back every year if possible!If you want to disconnect from the world this is the place. No internet . No TV. Just peace and nature. I love love love this place! The host was awesome as well!

Heaven on the River!

This property was amazing! Completely secluded and that was awesome to not feel like we were intruding on other peoples stay. The river access was definitely a perk. No cell service and wifi was perfect for disconnecting. The wrap around porch was fantastic for just hanging out and napping! Could not have asked for a better time, place, location. We had some hiccups finding the place due to lack of service and not access to map apps but once we figured it out… fantastic. My advice to anyone booking, make sure you have an SUV or Pickup truck, you travel quite a bit on a long unpaved road. Also make sure to get check in instructions while you still have service. Heather, the property manager/owner, was very helpful and responsive to all of my questions. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Unplugged and unbothered

The cabin was a great escape from the hustle and bustle of the city life and we had a great time. Jeff’s canoe rental does put in at the gravel bar at the end of the road so you may encounter sever school buses on that road if they are coming or going, and that can be difficult trying to pass. One thing to clarify: some reviews mention “private river access” even though the listing itself does not. This is NOT PRIVATE. You should NOT expect to go to the river and not see anyone else drive down to the gravel bar and set up. You may get lucky and not encounter anyone else except those floating on the river, but certainly don’t count on it!

I love this propery and it's location. I only took a star off because the showerhead has needed to be replaced since my 1st stay here a year ago and the ground floor beds need new mattresses or else some padding added. This would in no way keep me from staying here again, as the location and river access make it worthwhile. I'll just bring an inflatable mattress next time

The was my second stay at this cabin, and it was amazing both times. The host was very responsive to any questions we had and we had no issues whatsoever during our stay. Highly recommend this cabin if you want privacy and to be about as close as possible to the river.

The porch is amazing!! A wonderful gathering place! If it’s cool enough for a bonfire, that area is wonderful as well. The cabin has all of the necessities for a comfortable stay. The Black River water access is outstanding!!! Bring your easy up and lawn chairs, because you will spend most of your days down there!!! The owner is very responsive if there is something you need. We love the cabin and will be back, I am sure.

We loved the cabin, it was clean and well kept. Google maps led us astray, but I called the owner and she got us right there. I loved the location, but wish it wasn’t such a long gravel road to get there. I’ll still go back anyway!

Perfect cabin for a black river float trip

This property was great. Spacious rooms & outdoor areas. Awesome deck space & firepit area. The grill needs to either be moved or have fans by it to blow the smoke off the porch....the smoke completely filled the covered porch area. The bathroom was not so great. The toilet took a very long time to refill, which makes it hard for multiple people to all use the bathroom in the morning. The shower head was clogged so the water sprayed everywhere except on the person showering. Additionally, the shower curtain liner was on the same pole as the shower curtain so the bathroom floor flooded with every shower, so 5 times a day for our group. We had to use so very many towels for soaking up water on the bathroom floor. Amazing river access, but we did get a nasty note from jeffs canoes on our vehicle that we left parked there while we were kayaking. This was a memorial trip for my dad and very emotionally draining, so at the end of the day having passive aggressive threats from a local outfitter wasnt what i wanted to be seeing. Providing the host with license plate numbers that Jeffs canoes can access would resolve this issue easily and avoid future guests possibly having their vehicle towed. I made sure i didnt park in any road ways or areas where the outfitter offloads or parks their vehicles, so this nasty note was really uncalled for. .
