I really appreciate the owner’s effort to make our stay great. After an initial set-back getting in, everything was perfect. Fishing right out front and minutes away from shopping, dining, and all other outdoor pursuits.

Great cabin to visit. The driveway was difficult for us because you can’t turn around and it’s steep. We have a truck and although possible, it did prove to be a challenge. We parked at the bottom and only used the driveway to unload and load the truck. The river access is beautiful! We enjoyed exploring the river collecting rocks. The hot tub was wonderful to soak in after a long day of walking around and exploring.
The driveway is to the right not pictured
My service dog enjoying the river access part that’s shallow

Great house and great location! Very peaceful/quiet street with a nice view of the river. Only negative was the kitchen was not well stocked with items needed to cook and/or they were very worn.

We stayed for a week and a half from Christmas through the New Year and we cannot recommend this place enough! From the 81 steps it was the perfect stay for us and our pups! The fireplace in the house was gorgeous and it was nice overlooking the River everything morning and being so close for a cozy afternoon by it with a fire! Highly recommend :) the beautiful kitchen and porch were great for nights to stay in and cook at home!

Our stay at the cabin was great. The location was perfect next to the river and close to several hiking trails. The kitchen had everything we needed for making meals. We really enjoyed our visit and hope to come back soon.

Amazing stay!

The view every morning to the river was awesome and you could hear it if you open the windows it was so close. Just a short walk down to the river for some s’mores and good times! The rooms were spacious and it is about a 15 minute drive to downtown!
