I think ai finally found true Southern Hospitality here. Great communication with the host, fast responses. Very kind people. Lovely view, great fishing, kayaking, walks and daily greeting with a gorgeous chocolate lab from the Neibough. If we have to come to Selma again this will be our go to cabin. Fabulous time.

The cottage is way down a dirt road away from it all. Very quiet, the bed was comfortable, plenty of amenities, we felt at home. The host was extremely accommodating.

We enjoyed our stay, and were very very grateful for the hospitality of Shanna! My only suggestion would be to screen in the porch, so we could enjoy the lights at night without mosquito's! Thanks for everything

Sweet cottage house on the water

Loved our stay at this upscale little river cabin. Surroundings were quiet, watched the cranes fishing nearby while enjoying our our morning coffee. Bed slept great (almost better than home)! Shanna went out of her way for us

River Life

This cozy cabin surpassed our expectations. It was absolutely spotless and beautifully decorated. Our host went above and beyond to make sure we felt at home. My husband and I had an amazing time, and we will be booking with Shauna & Robbie again. Our next visit will be nothing short of enjoying the River & Fishing with no work going on. p.s. I loved the greeting on the fireplace, Shauna gave us. It was picture worthy for memories. Thanks, Michelle
