About this property

A Cabin in the Woods - surrounded by the river, trees and wildlife

The River House is a secluded cabin nestled between the Purcell Mountains and the Blaeberry River.

The River House is a two bedroom cabin, which sleeps 4 adults and 2 children. It has a full kitchen, fireplace, hot tub, t.v. with streaming, blue-ray, internet and laundry facilities.

The River House is located on 8 acres of wooded land and is the only rental cabin on the property. The other house on the property is ours. You can wake up every morning and while eating breakfast watch a majestic scene of the Blaeberry River.

The River House boasts peace and quiet, but for those that are looking for adventure, the House also includes the use of the 'shed'. In the shed there is a place to store and clean your equipment, which includes skis, bikes, sleds, ATVs, and all other equipment you may bring with you.

"Thanks so much! What a perfect place to spend vacation away from crowds we loved sitting on the deck watching the eagles and seeing deer in the backyard. The cabin is fabulous and was everything we needed. Thanks so much for making this a perfect vacation" Florida, USA

"River house cottage was everything we hoped for and more. A beautiful location and wonderful cottage. You were great hosts as were Lola & Sally. We have all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back one day. Thank you for making it so relaxed and easy." England

"Thanks so much River House! We had an excellent stay here. The house and location is beautiful! We enjoyed eating dinner at the picnic table and using the fire pit to toast marshmallows. We also really enjoyed watching the humming birds fly in and out to the feeder. We were able to get a couple of pictures. We appreciated the list of hikes and activities you gave to us, and thanks for being such welcoming hosts." Philadelphia USA

What a beautiful, quiet little cabin in the woods. We had a wonderful time, the hot tub was perfect, my dog loved napping in front of the fire. Will absolutely keep this place in mind for another visit!

This place was so much more than we were expecting! Just what we needed. Peaceful, quiet and so beautiful inside and outside. Beds were so comfortable we all slept better than we had in ages. We wanted snow for Christmas and wow, we got it! Beautiful. We were pleasantly surprised owners had even gone above and beyond with lights, decorations and yes, a Christmas tree! Highly recommend staying here, we will be back in the summer!

River House is amazing

Antionette and Grant have a beautiful cottage near Golden BC. It is out in the country but is close to so many National and Provincial Parks you never are at a loss for something to do. We visited in May and appreciated the fireplace, and hot tub. The beds are super comfortable and the owners have two lovely dogs that can visit it you like.

Peaceful stay

We really felt away from it all here. Peaceful, beautiful surroundings. Host friendly and welcoming and had set up the fire pit ready for us and fresh eggs available too. We only stayed 2 nights and had planned to go out for the day but changed our minds and just spent the day relaxing around the cabin. Saw the beavers and other wildlife as well as the cows and chickens! We would stay here again.

We had a great few days away from the city. Even when rainy, there are games, toys, movies and an Xbox to keep you (or the kids) entertained. Having the river right in your backyard was definitely a highlight. Beds and linens were very comfortable. We had everything we needed, definitely the most well stocked place we have ever rented. Thank you for being such great hosts, looking forward to visiting again sometime in the future.

We could not have been happier with our stay at the river house. Our host and hostess were phenomenal. If you are coming to Golden and looking for a nice, secluded vacation spot, then look no further. This is the perfect stay.

Great place to stay!

Gorgeous views from the property in any direction you look. The house was exceptionally clean, likely the cleanest rental property I have ever stayed at. Host also provides firewood which is a very nice bonus. Hoping to return next year for more hiking and exploration!

A secluded mountain paradise indeed

The cabin is very beautiful, cozy and tastefully decorated and offers a great view into the garden and over the mountains. We had a wonderful time there, enjoying a barbecue, reading and soaking in the hot tub after hiking in the nearby national parks.
