This was the perfect little cabin for our family. Tammy was so kind and helpful - very responsive. She even stopped by to meet us! Great location and great area. My husband loved being able to fish right by the cabin. We hope to be back!

We had a short but nice 2 night stay in the early fall. We slept comfortably and enjoyed waking up with the river right beside us. The cabin is nicely decorated and well stocked to cook if you prefer. You can fish right off the deck.

Cute and Great location

Property owner, Tammy, was amazing and easy to communicate with. Little cabin was cute, clean and in a great location. The covered porch was amazing and feeding the ducks a huge perk. We were not there much and didn't cook there but it was comfortable and met all of our needs. There are other cabins close to this one but there was no noise or anything. You really felt like you were there by yourself. We will be staying again soon.

Short get away

The cabin was beautiful. We thought we were booking a cabin with easy direct fishing access and that wasn't the case. Also I don't remember reading that we were in a campground. Everything was quiet at night though. The host was very nice and helpful with questions about the area.

Brenda it was a pleasure meeting a fellow Buckeye. I'm sorry you didn't realize it was in the campground, it clearly states that in the first few sentences of the description. Not sure why you felt you couldn't fish right from the deck.We do appreciate the king words though and will keep Ryan in our prayers. Best of luck in your new home as well.

Cabin was small

The cabin water wasn’t working when we checked in. There’s a store right down the rd an I wouldn’t get out cause it was trashy, the river was nasty.

The campground had a broken valve and the issue was repaired within a very short time about an hour. Not sure what the gas station had to do with the campground and the cabin. The river is a beautiful place and we’re sore you felt the way you did.

I’m so sorry you were sick. you had said you weren't really feeling good before you came. I'm sorry it became too much for you to have a good time. We would love to have you back, maybe next time choose one our rentals that doesn't have the lofts. As it says they are best for kids and young adults.

Pretty cabin/deck in RV campground

Cabin was clever, clean and very cute. It was not the kind of campground we expected (no woods, greenspace, etc.) and the cabin was one of several close together. That said, folks were very friendly, the deck was right on the river with tremendous amount of birds, people fishing. Saw herons, eagles and families of geese. Stayed on the deck much of the time we were at the cabin. Noticed many of the campgrounds in the area were this sort. Host was very accommodating.

First of all, I have never left a bad review and I’ve stayed at numerous places in the mountains so this is my first. Beware! Cabin is in an Rv park. Sugar ants throughout the cabin. Checking in, I had to get with the neighbor then 20min later he had to get with his wife to get the code. The digital lock works about half the time. The window unit AC WILL NOT cool down the cabin. It’s basically a sweat lodge in the summer. Broken glass in the Rv park from weekend stayers. Cut my furry friends paw (nothing major) but bad enough for him to limp the rest of the trip. Not enough water pressure to shower and do dishes at the same time, it’s one or the other. Large burner on the stovetop does not work. The permanent Neighbors are about the most unpleasant people I’ve seen. If this cabin was free, I still wouldn’t stay here again.

Jesse, I am shocked at all of this. I apologize for a terrible experience however not once did you reach out to me about anything or I would’ve tried to do something to make it better. First, it is in my description that We are located in the campground. You met with the Campground host. I’m sorry if she wasn’t there at the moment and you had to talk to her husband. I’m sorry no one was complained about ants but thank you for bringing it to my attention. It will definitely be sprayed. As for water pressure I’m not sure what was going on. The AC typically does just fine and if you look back through my reviews, I don’t think anyone has complained about it.We thank you for bringing all of your concerns to our attention. I will address them immediately.
