This cabin was perfectly located. A short drive to town and beautiful scenery. Clean and well stocked with essentials.

Inside if home is perfectly fine. Outdoors is very worn and many areas of deck and steps down to river are rotten. Very unsafe. Owners refunded stay after falling through rotten steps and suffering an injury. Don't recommend until outdoor staircase and deck are rebuilt or replaced.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Your feedback is important to us, and we appreciate the opportunity to address these concerns.
Clean and updated interior. Outside areas need some TLC. Lots of steps to access everything—not for young kids or adults with physical issues. 15 steps to loft, 18 steps to basement, 62 steps to river. Phew! Great hot tub with a view on one of two decks. Once you get to the river, you just step right in to cool water about 2’ deep. We tied up a raft to float without getting swept downstream and also was able to paddleboard there. Small yard area with fire pit next to river was great for hanging out and very peaceful. There are neighbors on all sides, but mostly hidden by trees. Driveway is short but steep but wasn't an issue for awd suv. Only complaint is noise every few minutes that sounded like a muffled slamming of a door downstairs. Drove us crazy then figured out it was the water pump turning on and off constantly. Eventually got used to it but not sure why it was doing that. But overall enjoyed our stay.
