Wonderful relaxing vacation!

We stayed here the week of July 4th to celebrate our mother turning 80 on the 3rd! This cabin accommodated 4 adults and 2 teenagers perfectly. We enjoyed walking down and looking at the river, drinking our coffee each morning on the screened-in porch, playing games and just being together. Really nice to put down the phones and take in all the natural beauty.
