10/10 Excellent

"Was an excellent place for relaxation. We absolutely loved it. Thank you"

Cozy Log Cabin in the Heart of Smoke Hole Canyon Overlooking South Branch River.

8/10 Good

"I’ll keep it simple. Cabin is AMAZING!! The walk to the river is very tiresome as it’s down a very steep hill. While very secluded from other properties I was surprised to see that there is more than one structure on this property. The description didn’t really mention it, and the pictures seem to “hide” it. However; no one was staying in the other house on the property but if someone was there, you would lose all privacy at that point. Loved the mountainous views and the river is beautiful!"

"It was a wonderful setting for a family weekend in the mountains. Danica communicated promptly and everything was comfortable and welcoming. Loved the patio where we ate breakfast outside watching the fog lift off Seneca Rocks each morning. Dogs are welcome and lots of room for them to run and play. Quiet setting with privacy and no noisy road or neighbors. Creek was beautiful and we enjoyed a night roasting hotdogs by the fire. Planning on coming back again!"
