Nice getaway for 1/2 nights
Had a nice time at the cabin! Tim was very friendly and a great host! Would recommend 1/2 nights stay with your partner. In the ad it said about road noise which made me wary of booking but we heard nothing at all when we were there

A cute quaint and well kept tiny home. Very close to the river and Mannum without actually staying right in the hustle and bustle. Tim was an amazing host, down to earth and very helpful. Would book again.
