Cozy Rustic Cabin on Rushing Trout Stream, 5 Acres, Hot Tub, Wifi

We had a great stay. Enjoyed fishing and hiking the hills. Hot water smelled really bad. But even with that, it was a great experience.

Cabins are super clean and nice having access to other cabin.Hot tub was nice to relax in midday. Very quiet and remote location along a pretty stream. Wifi reception was an issue with the rains we had while there and cell service was spotty. Suggest stopping in town first if coming in from Boone and grab your groceries~ it's about 20 min away from the store if you need to run out. Grab some bottled water for drinking as the well water has a sulfur smell. Correspondence with the property owner was quick and they really tries to address all your needs, if any arise. If you are looking for peace and quiet, this cabin is for you.

The place was nice and quite, there were two our homes near by about 75 to 100 yards away but that did not bother us. We enjoyed playing and fishing in the creek / river as well as the bonfire. Sitting on the deck and listing to the water run was very peaceful. As other people have commented, the well water does have a sulfur smell to it, especially the hot water. One major inconvenience was the wifi / internet did not work. The plans we had for things to do were stored on the phone as web sites which were inaccessible.

I've stayed at these cabins twice already and it's been one of the most relaxing trips ever. I love hearing the sound of the river while falling asleep. We love the rockers on the covered porch, especially during a rainstorm. The kitchen was well stocked except for a can opener (maybe I overlooked it?). The hot tub was amazing. Unfortunately only one seat had powerful jets (I hogged this one). The main cabin's bedroom is very small but had enough room for 2 people to get dressed, sleep, etc in. The mattress could really use an upgrade to something a tiny bit less firm. I slept fine on it however my husband did not get much sleep due to being too hard. The bathroom was adequate for our needs. And of course you must bring your own water to drink and cook with but after the 3rd day I could handle the sulfur smell. We didn't get to use the fire pit. They have swings right on the river... those are my favorite! The cell service is spotty at best with the wifi but honestly, I was glad for a break from the hustle and bustle of emails and phone calls. The extra cabin is very roomy and my 2 teen boys said their beds were comfy. My husband wanted to sneak and switch ours for theirs while they were out fishing. The property is dog friendly and they've even supplied towels for your dog. We didn't bring our dog but it's nice knowing that option is available with the owners. The river had plenty fish and my boys even caught small mouth bass! Pay attention to no trespassing signs because in this area you cannot even go in the river near the houses. Not used to that in our state. Rivers are for anyone. All in all, this is one of our favorite vacation spots and we plan on going back next year and possibly rent the lodge (the biggest cabin) for a family reunion.

While we were informed that the cabin was on well water, we were not told that it was sulfuric water...we couldn't bathe at all. Lots of little things broken around outside areas. Picnic table was too broken to safely use. Chairs were dirty and uncomfortable on the deck. We were unable to enjoy most of the property because people staying at the other cabin on the property told us not to come near them. We didn't realize we would be relegated to maybe 100 ft of river front. Should've just stayed home, saving the fights with my SO and children, money, and wasted vacation time. We loved the area, but that's about it.
