This place was absolutely amazing. Very secluded and serene. Best rest and relaxation I’ve had in a minute. Full stove, refrigerator, microwave, bed, internet and cell service. The front porch is the best part.

The room was spotless and everything was very convenient. We had a great time and enjoyed the peace and quiet. The River view from our cabin was such a pleasant attraction to us. We will definitely be returning in the future, but with a longer booking period.

We had such a wonderful stay! It was so peaceful, clean, and you can tell they truly care about maintaining the property. I lived the river view. Waking up and relaxing while looking out over the water was incredibly calming and made the whole experience even more special. We also loved the charming touch of having a chicken coop on the property — it added such a unique, cozy, countryside feel that you don’t find just anywhere. If you’re looking for a quiet, clean, and scenic place to unwind, I highly recommend staying here.

Our cabin was poorly cleaned before we got there. Floors that made our feet black with dirt, greasy dishes put up as clean, and nasty fridge. We were told we would have somebody come out on our second day to clean, but it never happened. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay and it is a very nice place! Plenty of things to do within a 30 min drive. Chickens are so nice! Property is beautiful! I really hope they fix the cleaning issue so it does not affect their business!

My only complaint is that my code never worked that was sent to me. I called and she remote unlocked it and while friendly was asking questions like I didn’t know how to use a keypad. It’s the exact one on my door at home lol. Either way the code sent to me was wrong or something was wrong with the keypad. This would have been a bigger issue had we planned on coming and going a lot or stayed more than one night. Other than that this is a great little get away.
