River Cottage Fishing Trip
The cottage is right on the water and very clean. Perfect size for 3 adult men to have enough room for a 3 night stay. Has all the amenities we needed including cooking utensils. The directions provided were correct and it was easy to access per the directions. Great place and great view.

River Den
We enjoyed our stay at the river den this last weekend! It was a relaxing, much needed little family getaway. The patio was our favorite hangout spot with the gorgeous view of the river!

ON the River!
The cottage was absolutely adorable, and perfect for an impromptu weekend getaway. I could have spent the entire weekend standing in the kitchen watching the water pass us by. The location was great. Plenty of places to end up within 20 minutes of the place. The only thing that would have made it better would have been staying in the summer to see it without those couple feet of pesky snow :)

Cute place!
I booked this property for a weekend with my family. We had a wedding in Chippewa Falls and it was only a short, beautiful drive to the cabin. The view of the river is breath taking. The only negative we had about this place is the road noise, but we all were so tired it didn’t matter. If you are a light sleeper, it might be too much. The coffee pot takes pods and there is a hair dryer! We forgot both but thankfully there was left over coffee pods so it worked out. Another positive was that there were so many lap blankets! Perfect for staying cozy in the cabin. I would stay here again just to sit and drink my coffee by the river in the mornings. We loved it.

Cozy stay with a great view!
We had a short over night stay as we were visiting for a wedding. The house was clean and cozy, very cute decor! Even though the property is located on a busy road, a little traffic noise was worth the beautiful river view. The hostess was great to communicate with from initial booking to checking out. Would definitely recommend, I will stay again if ever in the area,

Great manager. Property not quite finished . View lacking.
We had an awkward stay at this property. In that we didn't stay. It was beautifully decorated. The photography makes it look fantastic. But the remodeling work wasn't finished, the finish work was amateur and incomplete. Surprisingly, there was no view to the river, a frosted glass door blocked the view to the River from the living room. Worst of all was the noise of the traffic. It really cannot be understated how intense it is. It was so much that we left, incurred additional expense, and drove 3 hours to a different property instead. The manager and owner is extremely gracious and we can't recommend her high enough! The home was beautifully appointed. She did an absolutely fantastic job on the decor on the interior and on the preparations for creating a vrbo. If the trim work was finished, and wood was not falling off the bathroom wall, and the painting and drywall were done right, I might have been able to stay here. If it wasn't for the noise, my wife might have been able to stay here. In the end it wasn't the right property for us. So if it's the right place for you then by all means rent it. But just be aware. It is charming, just not quite right.

Gather At The River
We had a nice stay at the River Cottage. Sipping coffee on the patio early in the morning was pure bliss! We watched deer play in the water on the other side of the river and shot video to send to our grandchildren. The property was very nice! Nice job Kristen!

Charming, clean, close to road
We enjoyed our stay very much, especially sitting outside looking at beautiful river. The scerenity was broken by cars and trucks on very close road in front of cottage. It wasn't constant but still jarring. Otherwise, there were games, Wi-Fi streaming tv and cute decore. We used it as a place to take little jaunts to the cute towns around it.

Home base for a wedding weekend.
We selected this property to allow us to have a home base while attending a wedding in the area with our adult children. The house was exactly as advertised. Loved the outdoor space! Enjoyed sipping beverages on the waterfront both at night and in the morning. The proximity to areas to launch a boat was excellent as we squeezed in some time to fish. The parking with a boat was roomy. Only downfall is the traffic noise, it is quite significant. Just pointing that out as buyer be aware.
