Just an absolutely magical little cabin! Well stocked and comfy. Big firepit with loads of wood and kindling. There's a steep but easy trail down to the perfect little rocky beach area right on the river. Zero complaints, everything was lovely.

The view is absolutely EPIC! And the cabin is perfectly cozy, great location between hot springs and hiking. Love all of the extra amenities, too - dog toys, grill, and a campfire with a view over the river.

The place was Amazing. It was the perfect peaceful get away for 2. Only disappointed in not being able to have a fire outside, which was understandable due to the fire situation. We loved being able to cook meals and just relax listening to the water. We will definitely rent again. Thank you.

Great little riverside cabin. Well maintained and clean. Coffee provided was a nice touch. Peaceful place to get in a casual morning tree-shaded read with breakfast. Plenty of hikes to explore nearby. Would stay again!HIGHLY recommend the cougar hotsprings a short 20min drive. Well maintained and managed pools. Two hours for 12 bucks per person. Pretty magical.

Incredible little cabin with the river right outside the door. There’s a couple other cabins on the property but they have everything laid out very clearly so you have your own space and there’s barriers so it still feels private. We’ll definitely be putting this on the short list for places to go for a getaway!

Nothing beats being in the woods on a river for relaxation. The cabin is right on the river with a wonderful high perch above to look down on the beauty, Clean, well kept and equipped with everything a couple needs to feel safe and secure. A little road noise at peak times can find it's way through but you quickly forget about it as the sound of the river easily covers it up.

Clean and cozy cabin next with soothing river sounds when the windows are open. Great location for McKenzie river exploring and activities. The cabin is close to the highway. Later in the day the traffic dissipates. The fire pit location is outstanding. A trail on the property leads to the rivers edge. Fantastic water pressure in the shower. We would stay here again.

The sight and sound of the river was magnificent! The indoor space was everything we needed. Another bonus was the contrast of how close we were to the highway, yet felt secluded in our surroundings! Really a gem of a vacation home!

We stayed two nights at this small cabin. It was perfect for just the two of us. The bed was not very comfortable as it was way too soft and the bedding was scratchy. For two nights we made do. Otherwise, the cabin had everything we needed and had a beautiful view of the river. Very peaceful. We enjoyed our stay. Thank you.
