Definitely 5 stars! The house definitely had a welcoming vibe and our whole family loved being there. The beds were very comfortable and there were plenty of pillows and blankets, which I think is always a bonus. All the small extra things were great - extra towels, dishes, kitchen items, etc. And the back deck and river were amazing!

Excellent cabin in the mountains

We loved staying here. The river in the backyard is great and serene. The cabin is cozy and spacious. It was well equipped and it even had a wood burning fireplace. The location is also close to everything, but just away to not feel in the middle of all the action.
