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.

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!

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.
