The cabin itself is good and we found it to be clean. It is in a beautiful location and is right on the river. Unfortunately we did not find the beds to be comfortable.

Great, cozy cabin, perfectly suited to our low-key Thanksgiving getaway! Very peaceful neighborhood this time of year, enjoyed the river right outside! The cabin, with the wood burning fireplace and other amenities suited our needs perfectly and made for some great memories!

Great cabin experience. Super clean and not very close to the other cabins/houses. Right on the river, we fished a few times right next to the cabin.

Amazing Stay!

It was an amazing trip. The house was very well furnished. It had everything we needed. It was very clean and we had no issues. Just steps from the river and we enjoyed fishing and just relaxing in the hammock listening to the river.

Cool place

Overall a good place to stay, quite and good location. Clean and great outdoor space. Unfortunately the river was high during my stay so i can't attest to the fishing, though it is close by to numerous lakes which were great. Id definitely considered staying here again.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Property was welcoming and access was easygoing with owners instruction. Bathroom with mold in the ceiling, tons of dirt and dust under the sofa and on the floors. When you charge 150 for cleaning fee, there should not be major dirt build up. Owners attempted to charge me twice for dog cleaning fee. Watch out

A little piece of heaven.

This was our 4th visit to the River Cottage. Every year we have come here to get away from the fast pace of the city. The river fishing, hummingbirds feeding and starry nights always do the trick!

Great location

River cottage was the perfect location for our family vacation to wolf creek. It was just a few miles into town and about 20 minutes or so to wolf creek ski area. We have been to South Fork numerous times, and our stay at the River cottage did not disappoint. The area was beautiful! We saw lots of wildlife from the cabin windows and on our drive into south fork. Would love to come back in the summer!
