Walden is always a great place to stay. On our first morning we had a coffee maker that had picked that day to stop functioning. Contacted the host and he came by very quickly with a brand new coffee maker.Beautiful view of the river for a quiet peaceful weekend!

What a wonderful cabin. Our family of four stayed here very comfortably. We made memories that will never be forgotten. There’s so much to do with the fire pit, jacuzzi and river front access. It was exactly what we wanted in order to unplug and be in nature. It’s such a beautiful spot.
