About this property

We are located deep in the woods on a river canal. Our Rustic Cabin is made of beautiful pine. Cozy with everything furnished except clothes and food. Come enjoy the wildlife, fishing and kayaking. We are 30 minutes to the beautiful beaches and Pier Park North in Panama City Beach, Florida with all the entertainment. We are out of hustle bustle of traffic. West end off hwy 79. Enjoy both!!!

There are 4 miles of dirt road in the middle of paved road coming in and going out. We also have 3 natural springs within an hours drive that are wonderful to explore. We have WiFi available on property but due to our area, sometimes not very good.

We do have kayaks and one canoe for our guest to use here on canal to explore. Life vest and paddles. At your own risk.

We do have great accommodations for 2 and smaller children but could get tight for more. Only 3 to a cabin is comfortable. We look forward to meeting you and wishing you memories made here at Sister River Retreat!

Off the beaten path

We are always looking for somewhere to stay that’s off the beaten path. The little Rustic cabin didn’t disappoint. What a pleasant surprise it was to be staying at Someone’s place, who is from our little hometown. Thanks look forward to staying with you guys soon. Prayers and blessings for you both.

Nice and Quite

Stayed there for Thunder Beach spring rally. While out in the boonies, was an easy 23min ride into town. Was a nice break from the excitement of town.

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Shuman

Hank and partner, Diane, enjoy the life on the river. Fishing freshwater in the river and 20 minute boat ride to the bay for saltwater fishing. We love the wildlife in its ever changing seasons. We love sharing our peaceful and beautiful area. We are off the beaten path of the hustle and bustle deep in the woods. We have WiFi but from time to time and depending on your phone service, may be challenging at times. But no complaints, everyone loves the getaway!
