Lovely cabin and setting on a river. I would call it rustic luxury ( I just coined that phrase!) Christine was very solicitous in her communications, but she had so much local information right at our fingertips, we really didn’t need to reach out further. My grandson loved the game room, but the hot tub was the overall winner for him. Would love to come back in the summer to go tubing or fishing on the river! We’ll be back!!

Beautiful, private, peaceful getaway for the family! We enjoyed many nearby attractions and activities, as well as just relaxing in the river or around the fire. The host did a great job making us feel like it was our home away from home. Would love to return again in the future!

The cabin was well equipped with everything you need, even a gold pan! Very clean and well furnished with cozy& luxurious touches. The towels smelled amazing!! The hot tub felt refreshing after a day tubing on the river and we enjoyed our coffee on the porch every morning, listening to all the sounds of nature. Our host was very responsive to any questions we had and we hope to visit again sometime. There’s so much to see in this area- vineyards, waterfalls, beautiful mountain drives, and more.

Nature lover's dream

This was a very secluded property but the gravel road was not bad at all. We saw a deer and her fawn cross the river, also a black bear crossing as well. The river otters and their little ones were a delight to watch every morning. The river view is beautiful. We enjoyed playing around in the river in front of the cabin on the small kayak we brought with us. Lots of deck space to relax on. The gravel road was great for morning walks. One of the cleanest properties we've stayed at. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
