Cute eclectic cabin

Perfect location for what we need. We felt like we were at our Grandmas house. A few things (electrically) need updates for safety sake. Sheets and towels were so soft. Nice outdoor are.stove&fridoutdooroutdoorarea.ffack!

Absolutely wonderful stay. Just right for 2 ….. walked along the river (didn’t have time for the kayaks I’m afraid…). Sat out side under the patio in the back…. super quiet. Ran the quiet country road in the morning. Very comprehensive kitchen set up….hot showers and the best towels ever. Not bougie….very homey. Really enjoyed it. Highly recommend.

No WiFi?!?!

The cabin was very small. Lots of bugs and spiders. Ceiling plaster peeling off. No TV instructions and barely worked when we figured it out. No wifi or cell service at all. Had to drive a few miles away to pull up email with the code. Too small and just not what expected.

Never stated that I have WiFi. Bugs tend to get into houses alone the river, we spray before each stay. This cottage has lots of amenities to enjoy. It's mostly for a outdoors/ fishing guest or someone who loves nature and the water. I hate that your stay here was for all the wrong reasons for visiting. I keep my prices reasonable because it's a smaller cottage and no Wi-Fi.
