Family fun on the river
Had a great time with our little family of 3. Cabin and river were both as described. Had a blast swiming and fishing in the river.

Lovely stretch of the river. Caretaker is polite and readily available, but gives you plenty of privacy. Just a very nice stay.

Beautiful Property
The property is quiet, clean and beautiful. The perfect getaway for couples and families. One thing to take note of the fridge in the cabins are mini fridges and there are no ovens.

Clean cabin, beautiful river
We were presumably some of the first people to stay in this brand new cabin and it did not disappoint. Everything was provided, from towels to real silverware, pots and pans, BBQ utensils, plates and cups.. basically just need to bring your swimsuits, bathing essentials and whatever food you plan on cooking. The river was beautiful and flowing, with a deep swimming hole directly in front of the property where dozens of tilapia, bass and a few catfish come to the surface to eat dinner around sunset. We enjoyed s'mores in the dip pool on the back porch, and grilled burgers and hotdogs on the provided grill. One suggestion for the property would be to make an area where a car or 2 could park closer to the river entrance, as lugging tubes and ice chests from the cabin to the river was a bit hot and tiresome. My only gripe is that after cleaning fees, taxes and insurance, my cabin ended up costing more than anticipated, and we were expected to thoroughly clean the cabin at time of departure, with a list of charges we would be required to pay if not cleaned to expectations- I believe something like $35 if any spill was left on a counter, $35 if any trash was left in the cabin, $35 if any food left in the fridge, etc. I agree with a cleaning fee, but it seems a little exorbitant if the guests are required to do the bulk of the cleanup. Not worth deducting any stars, as my stay, the cabin and the property were all lovely, but just something notable for management to consider.
