This is a very peaceful place and the riverside setting on a quiet piece of road is nice. I liked that the bedrooms were on either side of the cabin and the privacy that provided. The kitchen was well supplied and it was easy to use. Everything was very clean and well maintained. Thanks!

Great location. The cabin is perfect for a small group, the screened in porch was a huge hit.It even had a small bedroom with a loveseat and desk if you needed to do a little work while away. The kitchen is small but had everything you needed, good quality pots and pans, nice dishes and glassware. Definitely would recommend and visit again.

Everything was exactly as listed. Well stocked kitchen and pantry with everything needed. Well furnished, clean and comfortable. Nearby recreational options (Black Bear Park on Lake James)) and hiking trails are very near & better than advertised. We all enjoyed a quiet, restful scenic spring visit.

Cute home on the river. VERY clean, smelled wonderful. Kitchen had everything we could possibly need. Only thing for me is I’m an unpacker and it drove me crazy having to keep dry goods on the countertop because there was nowhere to put them. But obviously not a dealbreaker! I thoroughly enjoyed this home and definitely plan to be back!

The photos do a great job representing this home, it’s a small, comfortable, beautiful home that my family and I enjoyed for Christmas! Our favorite part was the back screened porch with a fire pit table! We spent a tremendous amount of time feeling cozy and enjoying the quiet of the wildlife protected area across the water! The road does run just in front of the house but we did not find it to be too noisy aside from the occasional motorcycle or loud truck. We loved our time at this property and would definitely return!

Absolutely love the little house. It was pet friendly so we were able to bring our cats and they absolutely love the screened in porch. As did my husband and I watching the river from the house was amazing. We even got to see one of the birds of prey, catch a fish. We were able to go from the house to multiple hiking spots and just have a great weekend.

If you want a peaceful retreat then look no further! This is your spot! The house is perfectly clean and well appointed. My favorite spot for a morning cup of coffee was the screened in porch looking out at the river. Unfortunately we didn’t get to spend our time allotted there and had to leave early.
