Cabin is perfect for 2 people wasn’t able to fish due to all the flooding going on could not get down to water too hard to fish from deck because of trees hanging over opening so if that is your main reason you are going check the weather weeks ahead of time. Also need something to put the outside trash cans in we had to get up everyday and clean trash up that the bears got into. Cabin is very cosy and private.

River Rendezvous first week in November 2016.

River Rendezvous first week in November 2016. It was a very enjoyable stay. Our timing was perfect in order to catch the changing of the leaves. Very comfortable cabin. Beautiful view and so glad no pets, to avoid fleas and ticks. The only problem we had was getting used to the stairs - it's hard to tell when you're on a landing or on a step for those last few near the bottom. My wife fell twice the first night!

River Rendezvous The stay an staff were fantastic.

River Rendezvous The stay an staff were fantastic. our cabin had an issue with the Directv and a fix was offered, but we did not need it. Came to the mountains to get away from it and the repair was delayed till after our stay. Everything was great, we love this cabin and will be coming back again. The sounds of the river were perfect and the thunderstorm at night added to the experience. We will be coming back soon.
