Such a GREAT little cabin on the water! Just wish it would have been warmer so we could have enjoyed the deck and the outside. If you are looking for a nice little getaway,convenient to lot's of outdoor activities, this is the place to stay. Very quiet and relaxing! The only negative, wish there was more lighting in the living room, ie a lamp. Other than that, it was perfect!

Beautiful river views, but also conveniently located to stores, restaurants and parks. We had issues with AC not working, but owner was quick to respond to the issue and allowed us to use the neighboring cabin. Would stay again.

Cute cabin. One of four in a row right on the river. Only drawback was the lack of a kitchen table. Maybe could use some larger mugs for coffee. The river was nice in the morning and would get really high at night when the dam was generating. There was a campground directly across the river. So, a peaceful setting.

Peaceful and relaxing!!
We enjoyed our weekend very much. Listening to the babbling river and watching the ducks and geese were relaxing. It’s Bristol Baby! 15 miles from the track. Perfect location. Plan on coming back. We enjoyed our weekend very much!

Nice cabin
A new cabin with nice modern appliances. It is located in a depressed neighborhood, but the location is very convenient for us. There is not a closet to hange clothes, but one can use hooks on the inside of the bathroom door. Would stay there again.

Just for the fish
The cabin in itself was good, but the picture was misleading that
you can fish off that side of the river. too steep

Great future stay
It appears these properties are new to the area. They're building up to 20 units, and I am very excited about it when they are complete. The VRBO website didn't have any check in or out instructions. There was no instructions to bring your own soap, shampoo, etc. But location is excellent and hopefully in the future it will be even better. Will definitely be checking back in the future.
