The porch has lighting as well as ceiling fans to keep things cool. There is additional outdoor seating on the deck and a fire pit just down the back steps. The area is home to abundant wildlife and small creatures including deer, river otter, ground hogs, a variety of birds, bear as well as many insects and reptiles so prepare to convene with nature!

Tucked away, but not too far!

A truly unique cabin/home that blends in nicely with nature and it's surroundings. Ultra clean property that is well taken care of, the new steps to the waters edge are a nice touch! Off the beaten path, but minutes from all the necessities. This is a great place to get lost, or go exploring on foot, bicycle or by car.

Loved it!

First, I have to say that Callie is a wonderful host. Snow was expected the night before our arrival and she texted with us to make sure we wanted to keep our reservation and then kept us up to date with the conditions of the roads. She even had the wonderful neighbor clear the driveway and porch. We felt welcome the moment we arrived. The reason for our visit was to enjoy some cooler weather. Be careful what you wish for because it was in the single digits! We loved it. While it was a little too chilly to enjoy the beautiful rocking chairs on the porch or the firepit by the river, we loved staying cozy by the fire inside. The property was beautiful covered in snow. We enjoyed walks at the River Walk in the park and at Seven Bend Park. The house was very clean and was stocked with everything you might need. These Floridians felt so lucky to be there during this snow! Look no futher. This is a great place to stay. I would love to come back in the summer also!

Quiet winter weekend

Booked a last minute 2 night stay and was not disappointed! Perfect house for our needs and amazing location right on the river! It was so nice to stay in and play games and just enjoy the fire and the quietness. Would love to return in the summer and take advantage of the easy river access!
