We were only at the cabin to eat breakfast and sleep while visiting family in the area. The inside was charming. The kitchen was well equipped. Enjoyed listening to the river while sitting on front porch before bed. If allergic to fragrances, ask to have reed diffusers removed prior to arrival. Would definitely stay again.

Everything was great in the cabin! Beautiful furniture pieces, lots of games if someone wanted to play, plenty of linens, blankets, and throws for cooler days. “Porch sitting” area is perfect for relaxing and watching the river. Outside lighting is great for returning after dark which was very much appreciated. Well stocked kitchen. Lovely cabin and very much appreciated that we could have taken our dog. We didn’t this time, but maybe next time. Nice yard. Host was very responsive as our plans had to be changed. I have a much larger vehicle. There was a car in the parking area which made it more difficult to turn around for me.

Vacation in Mountains

We enjoyed our stay. It was very quiet and peaceful. We watched many tubers and kayakers on the river right from the porch.

Great place to stay. The shower handles need replacing and were hard to operate without scalding or freezing yourself. The neighbor apparently is working on a garage band on Saturday night with some practice on Friday evening but they cut out at a decent time. Would definitely stay again despite the inconveniences.

Relaxing by the river!

Everything we needed, close to town and the university. We had a great time visiting the kids at college and relaxing with our coffee each morning. The misty mornings, sipping coffee and listening to the river- the absolute best!

Great Cabin and Location

This cabin was well appointed and had all we needed for a relaxing vacation. The view of the river and mountains was priceless. My husband enjoyed fishing the river while I enjoyed quiet time on the front porch. We hope to return soon.

Home away from home

We couldn't have enjoyed our stay anymore than we did! An amazing location with a spectacular view!! The sounds of the river were peaceful and relaxing. We wanted for nothing during our stay as the cabin was equipped with everything we could ever need and then some! Brook Trout Cabin is a DEFINITE return visit 🙂

Great cabin

We had such a great holiday weekend! The cabin was clean, cozy and quiet-loved seeing and hearing the river across the street. Well-stocked with everything you needed and more! We never turned on the TV, instead explored the beautiful outdoors during the day! Pets loved it too! Would stay here again in the future!
