About this property

Affordable Cozy Cedar Cabin Overlooking the River

Overlooking the Ohio River, the Cedar Cabin at the River's Edge offers a peaceful, comfortable, and intimate experience of the Ohio River. With a queen, 2 twins, and another queen in the loft, this would be great for families, hunters, or couples. Dog and cat friendly. Smart TV. Free wi-fi available.
The space
This cozy, rustic, cedar-walled single-room cabin directly overlooks the Ohio River. The bathroom has a shower, sink, and toilet. Outside there is a short path down to the beach & water, as well as a large open grassy & landscaped space overlooking the river, with a fire pit, swing set, and flagstone areas with tables. The property also borders a deep creek, with lots of trees. The cabins & yard are mostly separated from the road by the restaurant (no longer open to the public). Two parking spaces available per cabin (please reach out ahead of time should you want more spaces). Locally-sourced coffee provided in the cabin, as well as some instant oatmeal and granola bars. The room is heated/cooled primarily with a mini split unit.
Guest access
Guests can access the river, beach, and large yard at their leisure. There is also a landing spot for boats about four miles south (KH Butler) and a cute little town about a 10-minute drive north. Free onsite parking lot is available. We live in a very rural area, so there are a variety of dwellings and lots of patches of woods around.
Other things to note
We offer a contact-free, COVID-friendly checkin. Very kid friendly. Very pet friendly. Smoking & vaping permitted on cabin deck and outside public areas, but not in cabins please. We provide locally-sourced coffee in the cabin. Smart TV in cabin. Free Wi-Fi.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

We were very happy with the interior of the cabin, no signs of pet hair and for being so small it had alot of amenities inside! Coffee was a nice perk, plates, mugs and plastic utensils. Very comfortable sleep, efficient air conditioning and quiet (besides the train lol) our only disappointment was the exterior could use better maintenance. Beach use wasn’t an option with garbage in the water. But overall very happy, especially with such kind owners

Chris was an amazing host! Property was neat and clean and %100 as advertised! The area was quiet which was great for my dogs as they bark at every noise. Chris made check in and check out extremely simple. I highly recommend Lorobi’s pizza in Gallipolis if you’re in the area. We would absolutely stay again!

Our family really enjoyed our one-night stay at this cabin. It's a cool, unique spot right on the river a few miles away from Gallipolis. Very peaceful. The cabin was clean, beds were comfortable, and it had everything we needed. The host was very helpful and friendly. Also, it was very pet-friendly. We'd definitely stay again next time in the area.

What a cute place to stay. Wishing we booked a few extra days. The balcony view of the river is so pretty. The host is so kind and friendly. He greeted us as soon as we got out of the car and introduced himself. We came for our anniversary and a card was sitting on the table for us when we entered the cabin.What a nice surprise! Everything was clean and the bed was comfy. Most amenities were provided. Soap, shampoo, a small tube of toothpaste, towels, washcloths, and even a hair dryer. Even though we brought our own items it was still nice for someone who may have forgotten. them. They are pet friendly, which we loved! I honestly can't think of anything we didn't like about this place. Hummingbirds were everywhere and they sure put on a show. Watching the barges go by was also entertaining. We will definitely be back. Probably sooner than later. Would love to visit in the fall.

We had a good stay, the room was clean and cozy, as the name suggests. The balcony left a perfect view of the river. I was given access to a gas grill that gave opportunity for a few dinners there. The hosts were always accommodating and inviting. On the downside which wasn't a big deal for me was access to the river. The pictures suggest a cleared bank wide open to fish. I did not buy a Ohio license but if I had, the access would have been more than disappointing. The overgrowth was more than a machete could take care of. The host cleared a narrow path to a cove but other than that it's inaccessible.
