Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Peaceful and relaxing. Great place for the pups--fenced yard made life easier and less stressful. The riverfront deck with the tranquil river sounds made me so happy--perfect spot for morning coffee, reading, contemplating and soaking it all up, and perfect spot for evening cocktails :-)

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very nice cabin, beautiful location on the river. One lane, hard pack gravel to get there. The directions were spot on. In places, if a car going the opposite direction was there, someone would have to back up. A bit challenging at times, but I would highly recommend the property. Lots of deer!!

Relaxing getaway

The view of the river and soundscape is exquisite. The rushing water is calming and there are multiple places to sit and enjoy the view. The cabin itself serves it's purpose.

Quiet Getaway

Great property on a wonderful lazy creek bed. Loved the view. Very clean and well kept and perfect instructions on how to reach the property. It was a windy, hilly gravel road but accessible. We had a wonderful weekend.

Charming cabin

This was a very charming cabin, with every amenity we wanted. The location was great and we really enjoyed the river. However, due to our ages (69 & 81) we could travel the road leading to the cabin. The upside is, we had a very relaxing 4 days, and we spent quality time with our rescue dog, Zoey.
