Get Away

The facility was nice and relaxing. Amenities were accurate to the description. The hot tub and firepit were nice amenities. The check-in process was a little frustrating due to lack of communication about entry gate and code. Make sure to save all check-in data as cellular service is limited.

Alone by the River

We came to be alone, and that is what we got. The road in was rough but manageable for sure. The cabin was exactly as listed. Listening to the nearby river plus stargazing was glorious. Rustic but relaxing. Thanks for a great place to unwind.

Country getaway

Location was remote but provided lots of quiet. Walks around the property in the natural outdoors was great.

Secluded Retreat

If you are looking for a chance to be in nature and just relax this is perfect. The stars were so bright and beautiful at night! The river is close and calm enough to wade in or paddle board. The fire pit was nice and they had everything there to help you start a fire. Each room had their own heater/AC which made it nice to customize your environment. The only thing that we questioned was the fridge didn’t seem to feel cool at first but after a while it kept our items chilled. The neighbor had a dog that was friendly but did like to come up to the cabin and play with us outside. So if you are afraid of dogs just know that he is there. Was friendly but hyper. Overall a nice place to escape from the city.

Beautiful solitude

Beautifully decorated two bedroom cabin where we enjoyed true rest and relaxation. There were kayaks, fishing gear, many other outdoor amenities available but the quiet beauty and rest were just what we needed.

Girls trip

It was wonderful; just not having any service from the closest town until being at the home made it difficult to verify the instructions to get there but other then that the place was exactly what my friends and I were looking for!

Relaxing getaway!

My husband and I spent Thanksgiving here. We loved how quiet it was and that we were able to relax. The cabin is cute and cozy! However I do feel it’s false advertising. The kayaks are locked up and we were told they are for the owners use, the picnic area did have some beautiful sites but the brush is so over grown it was hard to see and made it unable to fish. When we first arrived we had to do some clean up of our own cause there was trash all over the screened in porch and old food left open in the fridge. Once we cleaned up we did really enjoy our stay. The hot tub was a nice way to end our evening’s!

Eclipse

The cabin was very well maintained. Some grocery items were available for use if you needed them. Cabin was very clean. If you’re looking for privacy or seclusion, this is the place. One neighbor who never bothered us, very rarely saw her. Wish it had internet, but other than that, everything was great. The manager was very helpful and quick to reply if we had questions.
