Great little cabin!

Great place to stay! Had a grassy area for play, access to the river to see rocks and little creatures in the water. Enjoyed listening to the sound of running water in the evening and morning in the 4 season porch. Highly recommend for a small family!

An oasis on the river! Very cute cottage with a vintage touch which we loved. The house is well appointed with anything you may need during your stay and was extremely clean. We loved everything about it. We were lucky enough to meet Julie and she was just as lovely and pleasant as we expected. We would definitely not hesitate to stay there again. Thanks James and Julie for a great stay!

We really enjoyed the stay at this cabin. We brought kayaks and a side by side. There are trailheads nearby to trailer to and you can ride an orv for miles! We also enjoyed a two hour trip down the river. The cabin has everything you need to enjoy your stay and is very well kept. We enjoyed the bonfire, sitting in chairs in the river and some of the many dvds that were available. I would highly recommend!!

Loved the little cabin by the river

Lovely host and an absolutely charming cabin. I was fortunate enough to meet James and Julie, who could not be nicer or more helpful. The cabin was amazingly clean, cozy and comfortable. Being right next to the river is a very relaxing and peaceful experience. I will definitely be back.

About the host

Hosted by James & Julie

Host profile image
My wife & I grew up in this local area and pretty much on the river, our house is just through the woods from the cabin. We spend our free time tubing the river when water permits, kayaking up and down the stream or just spending nights by our bon fire.

Why they chose this property

We love this little place we call our own. We have parties multiple times a year from Haunted Hay rides in October to Christmas cookie baking in December. We love to share what we have with friends and neighbors and what better way to meet new friends by renting out our little cabin. By the way the view is gorgeous on the river.

What makes this property unique

Fresh air, water and the sound of the rippling rapids. What else do you need? I was hooked right from the first night here. Clear sky at night that you can't begin to count all the stars (weather permitting) and on occasion the howl of a distant coyote, even sometimes a wolf.
