The river view side was peaceful and gorgeous. Had coffee in the morning and beverages in the evening out there. Saw 6 deer, eagles, and some other wildlife. Highway side wasn’t as bad as we expected. All in all a nice peaceful stay.

We had a great stay at this property. We were in the middle of a 2 week tent camping trip and stayed for 3 nights. Washer and dryer worked well and the place provided all the comforts of home. View was beautiful.

Well cleaned and cozy. Beautiful views. And an easy-to-contact host! Very responsive.One caution to families with young kids: The property is very close to the highway, so use your judgment on whether that works for you. Beds could be upgraded.We would visit again!

River Cottage Fishing Trip

The cottage is right on the water and very clean. Perfect size for 3 adult men to have enough room for a 3 night stay. Has all the amenities we needed including cooking utensils. The directions provided were correct and it was easy to access per the directions. Great place and great view.

Lovely place. The proximity to the noisy highway made it less relaxing than hoped for, but this is not the fault of the host. We were able to have some privacy due to the rooms not being super close. Wonderful kitchen with view. The kayaks would have been probably usedif the current hadnt been so fast.

Cute cottage that has a lovely location on the river. Surprising amount of space including a comfortable living room and dining room. Host has done a nice job. As others have noted it is very close to a relatively busy road but a white noise machine will help. Short drive to Cornell and hiking /biking trails.

ON the River!

The cottage was absolutely adorable, and perfect for an impromptu weekend getaway. I could have spent the entire weekend standing in the kitchen watching the water pass us by. The location was great. Plenty of places to end up within 20 minutes of the place. The only thing that would have made it better would have been staying in the summer to see it without those couple feet of pesky snow :)
