Absolutely beautiful property, no doubt! Was disappointed that the hot tub was locked, although it was in the pictures. Couldn’t figure out where the seventh and eighth person would sleep. And did not love the single ply…

Lovely home, beautiful setting
This is a great home for enjoying the river and for access to the McKenzie Forest. I would highly recommend springing the extra cash for washer/dryer use, which also grants access to the very nice screened porch with its table and two twin beds. Also, you may consider bringing house slippers or some socks, as the owners do not want shoes worn in the house. Overall, a great stay and would definitely return.

Relaxing and convenient to hiking
This property was even lovelier than described, inside and out. My friends and I enjoyed reading and drinking our morning coffee out on the deck overlooking the river. The kitchen had everything we needed and the house was sparkling clean. The king bed was a tad hard for my preferences but that could be my aging joints. Wifi was great, cell service was sparse, but we were there to vacation anyway. It was a short drive to beautiful hikes (Blue Pool, Sahale & Koosah Falls), hot springs, and delicious food at the MacKenzie Bridge Station Pub. We'd like to come back some day.

Location was exactly what we wanted - right on the river. It’s gorgeous here and very conveniently located. McKenzie Bridge is a special place and this property was fabulous. We visited the area to experience the nature, and we were not disappointed. We’ll be back

Excellent stay!
We would’ve loved to have the hot tub available. It overlooks the river in such a neat setting and every time we looked out tear the back deck, the hot tube was a constant reminder. We also wish there was a bathroom to use without invading someone’s bedroom.

The location was perfect
Location was just right. Covered bridge right close by, and the view of the river from the deck was ideal. Even the enclosed sleeping porch worked out for card games.. and an extra sleep spot. Kitchen was well equipped. Very comfortable gathering areas. Well kept and many utensils in the kitchen. Parking worked out ok as we ended up have an extra vehicle, but all fit well. Only comment is that they need to upgrade the quality of the TP. way too thin

Awesome Cabin on the river
the roar of the river was incredible intoxicating. we loved every minute of it. Would have liked to have known that the laundry room was locked along with the closet space. No iron was an issue as we were there for UO graduation. List the amentities on VRBO, like, no kleenex, limited paper towels, no large TV to watch, no hot tub access, no river access due to swift rapids, limited access to groceries, etc...It is a wonderful place if you bring everything on earth for your weekend. Otherwise, inquire about everything before you go. Very rustic.

We enjoyed our stay at the Belknap house. Jonathan was quick with answering all the questions we had before our trip, the house was clean, well maintained and is situated right on the river side with exceptional views. I would definitely like to come back and stay here again in the future.

Great getaway!
This little 1 of 2 cabins was a great getaway for a family of 4 (all adults) and just spend a few night peacefully. Great view of the McKenzie river right from both the rooms and a porch (covered and non covered). They have a hot tub at such an amazing spot close to this view that we would definitely want to go here during the summer and enjoy all the activities around (great hikes, trails, rafting and fishing ). Def recommend to anyone!

Perfect for family gathering during covid times
We were able to have our family gathering without any public interactions in this beautiful forested location. It was wonderful! Kitchen is well appointed and there is plenty of firewood that kept us warm and cozy. The deck is beautiful and it is sad to not be able to use the hot tub. The screened in area is also beautiful and would be ok to sleep in if the weather was warmer. Less than 5 stars only due to significant mouse droppings in the fold out couch and linen closet. But, it is the forest, so not completely unexpected. Overall, it was a fantastic place!

Beautiful location on the Mighty MacKenzie River
Great view of the river. House is comfortable, good heat, sufficient hot water, excellent fireplace , extra blankets, we were warm in winter. Perfect for a family with kids. Nice collection of books and games. This was our first vrbo. House is dated and lacked some of the interior charm we hope for; this was more industrial (camp) but clean. They may also have critters under the house, or in the walls. Manger seemed on it, will look into it. Outside porch looks fantastic for summer. Husband was disappointed we couldn’t access spa.
