Nice place in the woods! We needed a place to stay for a couple days, and this was just what we were looking for! Beds and couches were comfy, the place had the basic things needed, we enjoyed the hot tub and the huge deck was nice. Only thing I would say is the driveway getting up to the house is steep and might be a little bit of a challenge under certain weather conditions without 4x4 or AWD,

We loved the location and privacy of this place! The hot tub was spotless and the place was very tidy. We were five adults and had plenty of space, and plenty of towels, linens and supplies. The host responded quickly to any questions we had. Our favorite place to hang out was the open porch!

Everything was exactly as described. The kitchen was stopped with everything we needed and more. The couches were absolutely wonderful for curling up at night and watching a movie. The hot tub was hot and heavenly. The memory foam mattress on the king size bed was the icing on the cake. The owners were quick to respond when we had one question about the gate that led down to the river. We will definitely be back!

Peaceful stay

My fiancé and I had a very relaxing weekend at this cabin. It was located close to everything we needed to do. Our favorite was the hot tub at night after a long hike. I would recommend a deep cleaning in the bathrooms and kitchen, but overall the place looked clean in most parts and was comfortable.
