We truly enjoyed our stay at Cabin on the cove. The house was extremely clean and obviously loved by the owner. Apparently the downstairs bedroom is all new and the kitchen has been remodeled. That is evident as everything feels fresh. We enjoyed cooking dinner and hanging out at the large island- the open layout makes hanging out and preparing dinner a fun event. We will definitely book here again. The fire pit is also very well built.

Cute River Access Cabin

Very cute cabin! Beautiful deck and cute River access point. The dock area however was a little nasty so we walked half a block to the dock and chose to swim there instead. We did think the neighborhood was a little bit more secluded based off the pictures. The neighbors were a little close. We didn't really mind it, but we were looking for a little bit of better Lake access/ river access and a little bit more seclusion but the cabin itself was amazing. Had everything you needed and more.

Great Stay just Noisy Neighbors on the Weekend

Everything was amazing and the pictures definitely does not does this place any justice. Neighbors were a little noisy on Friday and Saturday night but it didnt last beyond 11:00pm. We would definitely stay here again.
