Great little cabin in a very remote area. The drive back and forth to broken bow lake was little more than we intended it to be. Great access to the river and all the amenities needed to have a great time.

Good, quiet place for relaxation. Host very responsive. Kitchen well stocked. Need to put up more signs and let people know that the roads are rough and best suited to a truck or SUV.

Hey, thanks for the review! Glad you enjoyed your stay! I will talk to the owner about adding a sign or two (thanks for the input). As for the roads, the cleaner drives a car to clean with no issues, it is bumpy and has some potholes but locals are used to living here and don’t think anything about it. Thanks again!!

The cabin is down a lovely dirt road that transitions into the secluded environment well. The kitchen is stocked with many seasonings and cooking supplies for all of the meals—the rooms are both decorated beautifully and are very cleanly.

Our stay was great! Very clean and had plenty of room for our kids to run. The fire pit was great for making smores and cooking supper. Best part was the fire wood already being available for us!

Very well kept property. We felt right at home. Short drive to Broken Bow. Super close to the river as it’s a short walk or drive. The master bed was so uncomfortable that my husband and I had to switch to the other bedroom. Other than that, everything worked out well for our trip and we enjoyed the house and property!

Glad you enjoyed your trip!! Thanks for the tip on the master bed, I’ll have it checked and replaced if it’s necessary. I do think it’s the same as the guest bedroom but I’ll double check it, thanks!!
