Beautiful Spot

The house was very clean, and had everything you would need! The beds were extremely comfortable, and the whole house was very cozy. The front of the house has big windows looking out over the River; it was a beautiful view and such a sweet little spot to spend a few days. There is a very nice hiking trail less than 1/2 mile away. We reached out to the owner about a concern and she was very communicative and helpful! A great stay; would highly recommend.

Perfect little getaway

The cabin was exactly as described. The property was super clean when we arrived. The kitchen and bathroom were very thoughtfully stocked with staple items. The 2 queen beds were very comfortable (we didn’t use the bunk bed to review it) The view of the river was gorgeous and the fireplace in the living room was very effective. The property manager was very responsive. We had a wonderful cozy week at the cabin of the Raquette River. Thank you!

The kids and I had a blast.

This house is very cute and cozy. They have a paddleboard and kayak that can be used for your personal enjoyment. We were hoping we could use the bikes they advertised but the bikes weren't rideable, but we found other things in the area to entertain us. We took the dogs on a hike just two miles away and we went to the beach down the street. The house was super clean inside so we wanted to make sure we left it even nicer than we saw it. I washed and dried their area rugs in the bedroom. They were so easy to wash. I swept, emptied the garbages and cleaned the porches. The owner sent me two pictures of the rugs and demanded I pay a large cleaning fee to have them cleaned. Well when we were ready to leave at 11am our dog ran to me and got the area rug dirty, I left the houses cleaners our bleach and the rest of our tide detergent so they could wash it with the laundry. I knew it shouldn't have been a big deal. The owner didn't seem worried about it because I told her we washed them throughout the week and they washed nicely with a little bleach. She then went on to complain about a spot that was on the carpet which was from a spilled water bottle. We kept that place clean. We brought our own dish detergent and house supplies. We kept that place spic and span. And she went ahead and charged my credit card the large fee, without my permission, because of a spot that was still wet when we left. I can't say anything bad about this house because it is so comfy and cute, but I will say that I felt like they were adding extra charges on at last minute. We paid for the whole trip ahead of time and reserved their place with two dogs on the reservation. When we got to the house they sent us an extra fee for the second dog, which we thought we paid for in the beginning. We had problems with their wifi and ended up spending a huge amount of money on our cel phone bill. It's a lovely place, but I feel that they will look for any opportunity to charge you extra, for something or another. I'm totally bummed it ended this way for us because my kids and I enjoyed our time there, but when they asked for more money twice on top of the service and cleaning fees, I feel was misled on the amount our trip would cost.

Absolutely breathtaking

We had a wonderful stay. Cabin was better than advertised and extremely comfortable and clean! Well stocked and right on the water! If I had anything I would improve it would be the toilet in bathroom. Kind of slow to fill and difficult when 2+ people staying there. Otherwise it was perfect we will be back for sure 😊

We came together to celebrate a birthday at this beautiful house

The house was perfect for us. Everything was clean and comfortable. We loved being on the river. The (young adult) kids fished from shore and from the provided kayak and paddle board. They did well with small mouth bass!! I loved the very close hiking trail, beautiful right along the water. We made a nice fire in the lovely fire pit, and had lots of available wood. Communication with the owner was easy . I would recommend this property very highly, and I hope to return.

We loved this camp! So quiet & peaceful. Relatively easy in & out with the kayaks. So clean! The owner was very helpful. I forgot our mattress topper. The 2 larger beds are very firm.
