Really good place, had all the needs inside, the owner stoped by two time to see if we needed anything, we will be back again, it was Hot Hot during our stay, we like sitting out on deck, if the place had a box type fan to use on deck would be great

Overall a great time. Cute little cabin and was a great place for us to be located to do our house hunting. Lovely porch right on the river, which was quite enjoyable. Centrally located to plenty of amenities. Not much space outside and located behind a storage facility and some kind of dumpster rental facility. Otherwise we had a fabulous time!

I give this property a high rating; the description is very accurate. A comfortable 2-bedroom place with decent bathroom and a good kitchen. We were there for a fishing trip and it is perfectly situated for that.

Perfect for what was needed

This is a great place to sit and watch time go by as the river levels change hourly because of the damn release schedule. Fairly quiet even when people are in the other cabins. 10 to 20 minutes to most places.

Great river location

It was a nice quiet spot on the river. The fishing was good just outside our door. The place was clean and nice. Close to town for groceries, other fishing spots and restaurants. It is nestled into a more industrial/commercial area, but once you are in the cabin, you don't really notice it. Great for a quiet get away or a fun fishing adventure.

New cabin on river

Cabin is not remote, but easy to get to and close to everything. Kitchen is modern, internet is fast, TV works great, has heating and cooling. Way better than staying in a hotel.

Very nice new cabin that is right on the river. Very clean and had lots of amenities. Better than staying at a hotel for sure. Pretty easy to find once typing the address into Google maps and plenty of information given through e-mails about the stay.
