Summary: A beautiful place to stay and a great host.

Summary: Nice cabin, clean and pet friendly which is hard to find. Could use a little tlc but was still a nice place and suited our needs.
Caroline H. Feb 17, 2026 11:15:25 AM
Summary: We loved the location - close to Helvetia and secluded along the river, but not too far down a country lane. The cabin had everything we needed for the weekend and we appreciated having a cozy retreat after our busy days exploring and running around. The WiFi worked well and the cabin was toasty warm the whole time. The host was friendly and welcoming in responses and answered some questions I had before booking. We’ve had a lot of snow in the past few weeks, so I was prepared to have some difficulty getting to the cabin. With the location of the cabin, it was still snowy along the river when most of the snow had melted elsewhere. It was a winter wonderland. The road to the cabin was pretty icy and snow covered, but it was also flat and not a problem for the short drive. Our SUV with AWD had no problems on the road.

Summary: Everything was perfect. Morning coffee on the deck looking over the creek. The sound of the water was so relaxing.

Summary: The location is amazing. We wanted to unplug from our busy life and get back to nature. This is the place to do it! Although sleep wasn't easy due to the beds. My husband and i are over 6ft tall and the largest bed was a full that we barely for in. In top of the size, they are very uncomfortable. The pull out couch was more comfortable. The sleeping arrangements are literally the only complaint we have. But not sleeping on vacation, makes it impossible to go back. Which makes us sad bc we gave this property 4 visits in 4 years, hoping the bed issues got resolved. Unfortunately, putting a mattress topper on a problem bed, doesn't fix it. So this was the last year we are going to be choosing this cabin for our annual family vacation.

Summary: My friends and I had such an enjoyable time here. We loved the antique touches, the river was perfect!! You cannot beat the back deck ... lovely. Cheryl was great at communicating and check in/check out was an absolute breeze. We would definitely stay here again.

Summary: Return visit. Our go to property for vacation. Great area. Close to many destinations, a cozy family get away if there ever was one.

Summary: Very comfortable and relaxing place to stay Peaceful and quiet
Sallie O. Jul 22, 2025 10:35:13 PM
Summary: It’s difficult getting around in the rain, because of the switchbacks and how dark it is. In the sunlight, it’s beautiful, the rolling Hills, the waterfalls the creek right in front of the house. That stayed with most of the time. You are deep in the woods. Glad I went, probably wouldn’t do it again.
