The cabin was perfect for us! The firepit and seating area by the river were truly beautiful views and area! We had morning fires and an evening fire which were fantastic! We would book here again 100%! Looking forward to coming here again! Thanks for a wonderful location and cozy home!

Endless outdoor fun is right. This cabin has a great view of the river from the kitchen and dining area, the spacious deck, and the lower fire pit area. It’s very quiet even though there are a few houses that you can barely see through the trees. The river was alive with spawning salmon. The house was freshly cleaned and the check-in and checkout instructions were simple and clearly visible. Communication was a breeze for my last minute visit. The two large beds are suitable for two couples and a sofa bed is available for an extra person or two. The kitchen was well stocked. I’ve never used a blackstone outdoor griddle but figured it out for grilling dinner two nights. I would definitely recommend this property to others and I hope to visit again.

Cabin was clean and cozy, property grounds were well kept with beautiful, relaxing sitting areas down by the river. There were a handful of neighbors nearby but still a quiet and peaceful area to relax.

The property was very nice and quiet. We did have a hard time using all the cooking supplies and outdated stovetop. The frying pans were used and needed replaced and utensils such as spatula was wore out and could’ve had a few more of them to select from. If we would’ve know the pans and utensils were that bad we would’ve brought our own supplies.Our overall experience was very good with the property and could’ve had a AC unit to take the humidity down until it cooled off at night.

Peaceful Paradise

My husband, college senior son and I spent a couple nights here between semesters. It was perfect. Loved inside and outdoor space. Wildlife encounters were fantastic. Lots of hiking and birding opportunities.
