We had a wonderful time at this cabin. It’s located in the perfect spot for fly fishing and was quiet and secluded. The property was beautiful and the inside of the cabin was cozy. We would highly recommend and will stay here again!
The cabin was great, perfect size for the four of us. Good distance from other trout streams and good food/drink.
The cabin overall was good, clean, and comfortable! Would recommend staying there.
The cabin was perfect for our fishing trip. We enjoyed watching the turkey and deer as we watched the sunset on the covered deck.

Host was great! House was not as nice as we had hoped. It was a little dirty when we arrived. I had to vacuum floor and clean off countertops. Ladybugs crawling all over everywhere inside.No outside porch light we could find, so we had to use flashlights coming and going early morning and evening.
Very good stay. Location was great- within 15 minutes of all our fishing stops. The house suited four of us well. NIce large bathroom with plenty of hot water.
The cabin fit our needs perfectly. We got up and went for a long walk on the trails in the morning and sat outside on the covered deck and played cards in the afternoon. Plenty of room for everyone to meet up and spend quality family time together between events.
This is our third visit and we will be back. Cabin is not fancy, but has everything we needed. Spent time trout fishing and just enjoying nature. I highly suggest this cabin if you are looking for a getaway away from it all!
The cabin was very cozy, clean, and quiet. A wonderful setting with all the comforts needed to relax and get away. Brendon was very responsive and helpful. We'll definitely be back.
This was our second visit, but not last. This property is perfect for those wanting to be in nature. Clean, comfortable house, with plenty of wildlife to watch! Great trout streams nearby. Hosts are responsive to questions. Great place to stay!
The property was exactly what we were looking for---private and peaceful with plenty of indoor and outdoor space for our family of 3. The host Brendon was very responsive and provided detailed instructions for the check-in and check-out process. The cabin is fully equipped with everything you need and the carport was nice to protect our vehicle from the elements.
Excellent location for trout fishing! Communication was handled promptly.So, we new how to meal prep
Love the location and distance from town to do activities with our family.
Was above and be on handle cook a meal as a family. And love that all the items with cookware was at this location. That’s a plus, with a family.
The accommodations were above our expectations! Great getaway if you love nature.
Nothing fancy about it, which is exactly what we wanted. A simple place that had running water, electricity and a bed at night. Streams that are on the property were well maintained. Lots of wildlife around.
We will definitely be staying here again!
We enjoyed our stay immensely.. The inside of the house was very nice, though somewhat dated. A lot of the outside was a little bit unkept and needed some work. It is a very nice location and convenient to many local attractions. Plus fishing in the creek was pretty good.
We had a great time at this cabin. We walked down to the trout stream and caught a couple trout!
We drove to close by streams and caught trout.
Sitting on the porch was so relaxing even though it was hot during our stay, the breeze kept it comfortable.
The cabin is well stocked and very comfortable.
We will definitively be back.
Absolutely wonderful. Very peaceful quiet place, close to Canoe creek for fishing. I will be back. Went with son in law and he stated he will bring his family up there. Loved the fact that it was a dark area so stars at night were amazing. Lots of wildlife to see, even got to meet neighbors dog, which we named Ralph, very well trained and friendly.
