We very much enjoyed our stay. The game room was awesome. The beds very comfortable.
This property is a great place for a quiet little getaway. Big enough for two small families or one big one. Enjoyed being on the river and the hot tub. The “game room” however left a lot to be desired. The restaurant down the street was also closed for a mid May visit.

GREAT LOCATION
This cabin is a great location for any trip. The drive isn't up a steep mountain so it was very easy to get to. They have a great game room downstairs and playset outside. It is right on a river which would be great for summer/spring time. I am planning to book this place again in the future!

Short Getaway
Place was clean and had everything we needed to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Communication was excellent. We never had a problem with getting ahold of them and not once did we have an issue. It was nice to be right beside the river, as some of us took a ride on the provided tubes down about a mile and half. We will definitely stay again!!

Summer Family Fun!
We enjoyed this spacious family cabin! The location on the River was so relaxing. The covered porches were perfect for sipping morning coffee in the morning and dining at the picnic table in the afternoon & evenings. The fire pit surrounded by chairs was terrific for roasting hotdogs & marshmallows.
The inside was well equipped, and the pub table was great for evening card games. The basement was the highlight for kids from 17 to 75 during the evenings!
Ping Pong, Pool, Skeet Ball, Foos Ball, Arcade Games and a Juke Box provided competition, laughter and family fun!

Perfect cabin
Beautiful cabin with a great location on the river. The kids had a blast in the game room while the adults were able to relax on the back porch and enjoy the beautiful view of the river and surrounding pastoral setting. Only “negative” was that there is a mildewy puddle of water forming around the hot tub when we arrived, and some of the cookware in the kitchen is old and/or dirty and needs to be replaced. We still give the cabin 5 stars!

Great property, comfy beds, awesome game room!
We rented this home as an early Christmas present for our kids to take them skiing, snow tubing, hiking, etc. This was a perfect property for our blended family, big enough for everyone to have their own space yet open enough to have everyone together in the same space for meals and games. The game room was an added bonus and kept the kids (and adults) busy when we weren’t out exploring. Lastly there’s a little restaurant Riverside Restaurant and Provisions right down the road with a wide variety of options on the menu. Overall, we had wonderful experience and are looking forward to going back in the summer.
