Perfect place for fishing. The property was very clean. The kitchen had everything we needed. The bathrooms were clean. The road to the property is a little treacherous but we had plenty of groceries so we did not have to traverse it after dark. We would love to come back again!

Amazing cabin on the water

Such a great place. It's a drive back and I highly recommend an SUV to get there, but just stunning cabin and grounds to spend a very quiet retreat.

Excellent place. Road to house is one lane gravel/dirt but easy to navigate. Just SLOW DOWN. Never ran across any vehicles coming from other direction but that could get dicey. And night driving may be a bear. But we enjoyed the location. Only caught one trout but had a great time. Highly recommend.

River sounds are calming

Loved the river view and fishing. It was great to be able to drop at the bridge and tubing down took about an hour. Spent almost 2 weeks there and was not ready to go home.

We had a nice stay. The views were beautiful and the Tuck was awesome as always. The house was what we expected from the pictures. I had read the reviews about the road but it was more challenging than we had anticipated. We enjoyed meeting the neighbor and of course the neighborhood dog. She was very sweet and very friendly.

River Fun -June 2025

We had a great time at this cabin. It is close to everything, but the road is long to the house so you may want to stop for groceries before you get to the cabin. Bring your fishing gear and a float or tube. This property is right on the river so it adds endless fun to your stay.

Great get away.

Yes, the road to get there is a little trying, however, pretty safe if you have a SUV or a 4WD like they suggest. Location was great as you can see the tubers and rafters float place the place. The house is beautiful and well loved. Next dog neighbors dog will welcome you with a wiggly butt. I would absolutely recommend this place as a new spot on your vacation list. WiFi is a little spotty but internet is good.

2nd stay

We absolutely love this cabin! I love the little touches of soaps and shampoo, just in case we forgot, which we did! The next-door neighbor has two cats and a dog that adopt you when you come to stay in their wonderful source of enjoyment! Having access to the river Was so much fun, especially for my boys who love to explore nature.
