This place was amazing for us! Located just about the end of the road, away from everyone, so quiet & peaceful. The decor was so unique, had everything we could possibly need. Super clean. The pretty much private side by side trail head’ was 1 house over. We had a blast on that trail. (Big circle route type) breath taking views at a couple spots. We brought a couple kayaks up to glide in, fished, swam, bomb-fire’s and played poker every night in the awesome screened in poker table room downstairs. The only warning I would give is, if you did want to use the canoe provided, you’ll need a couple, maybe 3 strong people to get that big thing down & up from the river. I was glad we brought the kayaks to use instead. Overall, it was perfect & my family will definitely be booking this place again in the near future.

The cabin was a great place to stay for the weekend. Was really peaceful and quiet right on the river. The cabin alone was a great set up and awesome that its dog friendly!

It was a very fun place to stay with. Group of friends and a great place to relax and unwind. One thing is that in the pictures there were kayaks but you have to go down the road and rent them, but besides that everything was amazing and the host was very helpful!

We enjoyed every minute of our stay. It was peaceful and serene in a private location next to the river. Our hosts paid very close attention to detail with elevated touches from a designer’s eye. Very cool light fixtures. Lots of room to comfortably spread out with ample space both inside and outside. We brought our own kayaks and also used the canoe provided (some portaging required on the river). After a day hiking in the adjacent forest, we relaxed by the fire (two fire pits) and listened to the night sounds only found in nature. Very responsive communication. This is a real gem!

This is a very serene location and beautiful cabin. Kitchen was fully equipped and toiletries were of great quality. Bbq grill needs a bit of cleaning. Some furniture needs some upgrading which the owners are in the process of doing that will make it even better. It really does give you a feel of the wilderness. A/C is not central so that should be noted. It needs to stay on all the time in order to keep it cool along with all the fans. A suggestion I would make is to replace the basement carpet as it has a musty mildew kind of smell. We will ere the first ones to rent it so I am sure updates are on the way! Otherwise its a beautiful place! It is quite hard to get into the river from the cabin itself but there is an entrance point just a few homes down. Had a great time and we will be returning with the rest of the family thank you!
