Very secluded adorable cabin filled with anything you may need and plenty of extras. The kayak provided was a great way to spend the day on the river. Hot tub was so nice to sit in every morning and just enjoy nature. We will definitely love to come back sometime. Thanks so much for sharing this gem with us.

Myself, husband, & daughter had an excellent stay here! The river was absolutely magical and the location was beautiful and very private! We had gotten a flat tire while out & about and our host was great at assisting us and keeping lines of communication open which is always important to us. Overall, an unforgettable stay with amazing nature filled locations all around to visit.

We had a great vacation and enjoyed our stay. The cabin was cozy and the beds were comfortable. Logan was easy to get in contact with and responded quickly. The best part was the solitude and the peacefulness of the Jacks Fork about a stones throw from the porch. Our girls loved the swimming hole and exploring down the river. We will definitely try to come back.

Location was perfect - very private and right next to the clean and warm river. The hot tub was clean and warm, as well. Cabin amenities and finishes were top-notch. Dogs loved the wooded setting and swimming opportunities. This is a cabin in the deep woods, so be prepared for deep-woods bugs. Communication with hosts was prompt and thorough. Very relaxing vacation - thank you for sharing your location with us!

Cabin was clean and cosy. Took a little bit of patience to get the fire going but it warmed up the cabin quite nicely once going.

Great host, very concerned and reached out if everything was OK. Snow made road journey a little concerning, but all worked out. Quiet. Secluded. Enjoyed this and sitting in hot tub under stars looking at snow and river.
