Amazing Riverside Home on the Jackson River just 10 minutes from Warm Springs!

ON THE JACKSON RIVER!

Sit back and enjoy the Jackson River just outside the door, the sound of the water flowing over the stones lulling you to sleep and trout just waiting to be caught on this stocked section of the Jackson located just 10 miles north of Warm Springs near Poor Farm Road recreational area. Fishing on this private section of the Jackson is fly-fishing only, catch & release.

Built in 2012, this riverside cottage is the perfect getaway for up to 6 people. The main floor has a wonderful Great Room overlooking the river with a two-story stone wood-burning fireplace. The dining room overlooks the farm and the occasional grazing cow while the kitchen and pantry is well-equipped and stocked for creating home-cooked meals or holiday feasts! The wrap-around covered porch will be a favorite place to dine or read a book, overlooking the water and the Jackson River valley.

The master bedroom, with queen bed, is located on the main floor with its own ensuite full bath and private deck. The view is bucolic, while the sound of the river is always just outside the door. Upstairs there are two guest bedrooms - one with a queen bed and one with two twin beds - and they share a "Jack & Jill" style full bath.

If fishing is your passion - you will love Gilletts Run Cottage. Catch & Release Fly-Fishing on this long stretch of the Jackson River, stocked each spring and fall included in your stay. Enjoy s'mores & stargazing as you sit by the new outdoor fire pit that overlooks the river or have a friendly family competition with the new corn hole boards in the yard! Plenty of space to bring your own croquet, bocce or badminton set of your own!

As the cottage is located on a working farm, please note that personal pets are NOT allowed. All linens provided are washed and sanitized between guest stays.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony or patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a private yard, and a coffee maker.

Absolutely gorgeous cabin, well maintained and clean. As the gentleman next door commented, "this is where you come to find peace & God's love". Close to hiking, the hot springs, and nice restaurants/cafes. We've decided we plan to make this an annual visit!

Jackson River Property

We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful riverside property! The views were spectacular and we were able to go fly fishing and birdwatching right outside the front door. We found it odd that the entrance was through the cow pasture (past two gates that needed to be closed each time) rather than the more direct driveway from the main road. Overall, we loved the location and would definitely return to the area in the future.

Restful Retreat

The Gillette’s Run cottage is a wonderful, restful retreat! Lots of wildlife to experience along the Jackson River. We caught several fish and saw heron as well as fox in the pasture and along the river. The house was clean and well equipped inside and out. I highly recommend!

Perfect farm stay!

This home is so beautiful! The pictures don't do it justice. Very, very clean & nicely updated. It was a little odd to have to bring our own bedding (comforters, blankets) but I get it. The most amazing part was the proximity to the livestock! What a treat to watch horses, cows & babies romping around the barn & fields from the living room! The fence is so close to the home, you get a front row seat to all the activity! We stayed here for the Maple festival in Monterey. The home was nicely situated about 25 min from Monterey & 10 min to Warm Springs. Beautiful location & lovely time had by all! Everyone is eager to come back when the weather is warmer!

We spent 3 days at this beautiful cabin. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. The setting was beautiful! We enjoyed walking on the land and visiting with the farm animals. My husband cooked on the grill . . . we ate "in" two nights. The kitchen was easy to work in. Also the beds are very comfortable. We brought pillows but didn't need to as they were provided.

Amazing

It was even better than I hoped. It is beautiful inside and out. The house finishings are quality. Even the pots and pans are the kind you would want in your own kitchen instead of the typical garage sale selection you get at many places. We had Thanksgiving dinner and there was even a gravy boat! The beds were comfortable and cozy. We all loved watching the animals outside the expansive windows. There is a peaceful view from every room. We didn't get cell service, but the WiFi was strong. We all enjoyed family time around the fireplace when we weren't out exploring in the area. This time of year is between summer kayaking and winter skiing, but we still enjoyed a horseback ride (Appalachian Horse Adventures - Let's Ride Horses was fantastic for even our youngest rider.) And hiking at Dan Ingalls Overlook and the nearby Poor Farm river trail. As other reviewers noted, the host management company is super organized, responded to all my questions quickly and was very helpful. You do have to pick up and drop off an actual key in town for the property which I've never had to do before, but they make it contactless and easy. We are already planning how we can get back in the warmer season to enjoy the rocking chairs on the porch, yard games, kayaking and outdoor firepit.

Awesome amazing incredible. House is perfection and just know if I go missing this is where you will find me. We were 3 couples 55+ looking for a relaxing weekend and we found it. Fire pit, wrap around porch, river front, quiet, secluded, 10 minutes from Warm Springs, comfy living space with a fire place, top of the line kitchen with a pantry filled with beautiful seving dishes, supplies and w/d. Cannot wait to come back.

Seriously didn’t want to leave. Wish this property was my own. Great location, tons of outdoor space, and had everything you needed to cook meals. I enjoyed waking up early to see the cows in the field, listening to the river, and having a cup of coffee. This place was super clean and neat. We plan to book this place every year.

Incredible stay and sensational service

We loved our stay at Gillets Run Cottage. The house had sheets, blankets, lovely fluffy towels, soap, clean sponges, trash bags etc. that made packing for a stay easier. The property manager, Beth, is the best I have ever experienced... helpful, kind, incredibly responsive. She helped us find the best lake swimming, playgrounds, food, ice cream, etc. Highly recommend a visit here. We will certainly be back.

Peaceful and Perfect!

The house was super clean and modern, with all the amenities you would need. Beds were very comfortable, though I was glad we had brought some extra blankets for the cooler nights. The kids enjoyed watching Netflix and playing the board games when it rained, but we also loved sitting on the wrap around porch and listening to the river sounds. There were tons of birds and butterflies on the gorgeous wildflowers, and the cows and horses made for good neighbors. Catch and release fishing in the river was fun and relaxing too. Very peaceful/tranquil location! The small gas grill and firepit completed the experience. You may want to bring a Hotspot if you're planning to do online classes or meetings, but the Wifi was fine for general internet browsing. The rental manager Beth was wonderful with her communications and was very accomodating.

The pictures do not do this house/property justice. Everything was absolutely perfect for our family (2 adults and 3 children ages 4-9) and we will definitely be coming back. The house is very secluded and proximity to the river and 2 swimming holes within walking distance was perfect. Management company promptly dealt with a wasp issue and the owner Ryan provided additional insight and history of the land. Amazing time!
