Relaxing Days on the River

We chose this location for its proximity to USM as our son had orientation. The house was well appointed and clean. The master bedroom and bathroom were quite large. We had plenty of space and the bed was comfortable. The second bedroom was smaller but well furnished. We thoroughly enjoyed the beach and river. The river was moving quite fast, but we were able to enjoy the shoreline. There were fewer boats passing than we expected. Overall, it was quite relaxing. The neighbor did play his music quite loud on Sunday, but we just rolled with it as we would have had our own music on anyway. The road to the cabin can be somewhat intimidating, but we had no issues maneuvering it at all. Never did we feel like we were going to get stuck. We were driving a small SUV. It also rained every day we were there, and the road was still fine. There is a pretty little swamp area on the road where we spotted a small alligator and multiple species of fish. This location is great if you plan to check in and stay. It's not necessarily great for coming and going multiple times a day. We would definitely go back.

While the weather did not allow for kayaking, our trip was excellent! The owner and property manager were very responsive to anything we needed. This is an excellent place for relaxing and lots of fun (weather permitting). We will definitely come back with our grandkids for a kayaking adventure in the spring.

Great Stay

The previous reviews were very accurate in regards to the access road. A car can make it but I suggest a truck. We were at the property for 3 nights and only left at 2 times to go into town. This cabin is 12 miles from anywhere you want to go. Very peaceful in the morning on the porch with coffee. I had to communicate with Tammy only once and she was extremely considerate and happy to help.

A REAL CABIN,..IN THE WOODS!!

I can't say enough good things about this property. Location is a perfect picture. The huge porch and view is serene any time of day. The huge sand bars of the river are great for exploring and relaxing. My visit was early spring so the water was kinda cold. Or maybe I'm to old. Bring your ATVs, fishing poles, or just your favorite book. Best kept secret I've came across lately. Highly recommend

Memories were made!

My family (myself, husband, grandson, granddaughter) had the best time! Yes, the Leaf River was high and the road was sketchy in one area, but all was good in the end. The kids played in the sand, water, and mud with equal enthusiasm. What is funny though, is that their favorite part of the trip was going to the sandbar and having the neighbor dog run and play with them :) Thank you for a wonderful place for my family to enjoy Spring Break 2023!

Need Truck or SUV to get to property.

Make sure you have a truck or SUV to get to this property. The road was rough filled with large and deep pot/mud holes. There was also a culvert that was washing out. I would not try to reach the property at night. The cabin was clean, nice and well equipped.

Amazing Secluded Getaway

Love the seclusion and peaceful atmosphere. Really nice little quick getaway. Only downfall was I didn't like the idea of all the security cameras watching every move you made. It kinda creeped me out... Other than that we loved it.

Great deck and view

Our group had a wonderful weekend here. It wasn’t easy to access the sandbar because of the muddy area that precedes it, but once we got to it we enjoyed exploring. The porch is the best part of the stay. Beautiful view and super comfortable

A great birthday weekend!

My girlfriend and I celebrated her birthday over the weekend and loved every minute of it. This home is the perfect getaway for any occasion. Whether you're out by the water soaking in the sun, or sitting on the porch watching the local doggos play up and down the sandbar it is the perfect escape into the beautiful nature that Mississippi has to offer. I would recommend 100 times over.

Son's 13th Birthday.

We booked this cute cabin for my son's 13th birthday and we're so happy we did!! We brought our golf cart and the kids had a blast driving it around. They even attempted to go swimming in the river. (crazy boys) but easily warmed up by running around the long stretch of beach area. At night we roasted smores by the camp fire. The cabin was nicely stocked and very clean. We are looking to come back in the summer.
