Wonderful riverside cabin!! The cabin was clean, well equipped, and all that we needed for a nice last weekend before back to school! The front porch overlooking the river was wonderful and peaceful, we enjoyed breakfast on the porch each morning listening to the river and each evening to unwind after visiting the local parks.

Overall, a great cabin right on the river. The town is small so you will have to travel for a selection of activities and restaurants. We mostly cooked at the cabin, it was well stocked with cooking supplies.

We've stayed at the Parson's Riverside Retreat several times, and as usual, it was amazing. Cleanliness is off the charts. The kitchen has everything you'd need during your stay. Nothing better than porch sitting here and watching the river meander by. We will definitely return again. Thank you for sharing this lovely little slice of heaven.

The spot on the river with sliders and porch overlooking Shaver’s Fork. The cozy A-frame was exceptionally appointed with thoughtful items and comfy linens. Had a great stay.

Peaceful. Serene. Super Clean. Although it rained and stormed, and rained again during our 2-night stay, it did not dampen our spirits. This is probably one of the best VRBO rentals I’ve stayed in. Super clean, comfortable, with all the amenities! The owner did not miss one detail to make our stay enjoyable. Be careful though … the river is mesmerizing! You will find yourself napping in the rocking chairs on porch listening to the rush of the river. Listing details and pictures are super accurate. Beds are comfortable, inside temperature was perfect, 3 tvs, owner stocked cupboards with extra touches (coffee, creamers, teas, s&p, spices, condiments). We did not have any issues or bad experiences. Perfect getaway! We ate at B&J restaurant which you can walk to - it was pretty good - large servings! The Black Fork pizza was great! It and shop and save, dollar store are all within walking distance. Great place — will return!

Mountain Paradise

Fabulous mountain getaway in a cozy little town. There is plenty to do in the area, and it is always lovely just to sit on the porch and watch and listen to the river. We'll definitely be back.
Enjoying the river on a beautiful day.
