Awesome little cabin with everything you need for two. Loved being able to stay with our dog. Really cool to pack light and cook for ourselves. We stayed off season so it was just us. Host was really sweet and checked in daily. Super short walk into town if you want to go to a bar, eat at a restaurant or grab coffee. Can imagine it being really fun to hang on the river when it’s warm. Thanks again we needed a nice getaway.

Honestly staying in the little cabin was great. We read the reviews about it being spartan accommodations so we just prepared accordingly. We were able to cook some pretty good meals with the cookware we brought. Brought our own coffee making stuffs and we loved being there.

There was no one to ask questions or to call, all of our windows were left open, the front door curtain was broken so I had to lean a bag on it to have any privacy and our bed was so uncomfortable it was hard to sleep.

We stayed in a teeny-tiny cabin. Nice shower with nice products. Good water pressure and plenty of hot water. Nice bed! Two burner stovetop and mini fridge. Fire pit and picnic bench in front of each cabin. Just a few steps to Johnson’s Beach. Just a few blocks from Safeway and restaurants. La Bodeguita Mexican restaurant is a MUST. Property manager Chris is very kind and helpful.

Thin walls

The two double bed cottage is actually a duplex with very thin walls. My family had to listen to the men next door having s*x all night. Not fun.

I like how it’s situated close to the water and the ability to walk to restaurants and grocery store. I didn’t feel comfortable that the deadbolt didn’t work on the entry door or that the curtains didn’t close enough for privacy. As a single female alone I felt uneasy at night. Overall wonderful place to stay. Great staff. Thank you.
