Overall a great time. Cute little cabin and was a great place for us to be located to do our house hunting. Lovely porch right on the river, which was quite enjoyable. Centrally located to plenty of amenities. Not much space outside and located behind a storage facility and some kind of dumpster rental facility. Otherwise we had a fabulous time!

Perfect for what was needed
This is a great place to sit and watch time go by as the river levels change hourly because of the damn release schedule. Fairly quiet even when people are in the other cabins. 10 to 20 minutes to most places.
This place is gorgeous right by the river. It made sitting in the porch a pleasant experience.

I give this property a high rating; the description is very accurate. A comfortable 2-bedroom place with decent bathroom and a good kitchen. We were there for a fishing trip and it is perfectly situated for that.

Great river location
It was a nice quiet spot on the river. The fishing was good just outside our door. The place was clean and nice. Close to town for groceries, other fishing spots and restaurants. It is nestled into a more industrial/commercial area, but once you are in the cabin, you don't really notice it. Great for a quiet get away or a fun fishing adventure.

New cabin on river
Cabin is not remote, but easy to get to and close to everything. Kitchen is modern, internet is fast, TV works great, has heating and cooling. Way better than staying in a hotel.
Loved that it was on the River. Very clean. Host was great. Would love to stay here again.

Cabin on wattage river
Nice cozy cabin right on the river. Has just enough pots, pans, and coffee Kurig to make you comfortable. The only downside is the surrounding neighborhood and being next to a trailer park and a dog daycare kennel. We felt safe during our stay but could have been a nicer neighborhood.
