The place was wonderful, it was peacefully located in what felt a very private area. The one thing that would have been great is the pathway to the river from the house be more accessible. It was a bit overgrown with nature so a bit challenging with kids . Host was very responsive to questions.

Overall the stay was great! My only complaints are that the only bathroom was on the third floor, the hot tub tripped the breaker a couple times and there wasn’t a washer or dryer available on site. The place was very clean, comfortable and had an amazing view!

We really liked the cabin and river view. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great. Had a big storm with power outage overnight and next morning. We did build a fire to stay warm and used the tea kettle on the wood stove to boil water for coffee!

Had a peaceful and relaxing stay. Hearing the river all day and night was great; wish more of the foliage was cut back so you could enjoy more of a view of the river throughout the property.

Beautiful location on the river. Enjoyed several days of hiking and then soaking in the hot tub. Home was very well-maintained and comfortable. Host was prompt with communication. No unusual expectations for check-out. We did not use the second bedroom not connected to the house. Close to restaurants in Gold Bar.

Perfect cabin

The rising sun was exactly what we were looking for. It was very clean and comfortable. Being able to sit out on the deck and look at the river was so relaxing. It was raining for our entire stay so we'll definitely be booking it again in the spring/summer so we can take advantage of everything the cabin has to offer.

charming cabin on the river

We very much enjoyed our stay. Only complaint would be some cobwebs in the bath and kitchen could use a few more additions like foil/baggies for take home. Otherwise lovely home and peaceful and tranquil setting
