My family and I absolutely loved it. Plenty of space for everyone, plenty of things to keep the kiddos busy, BBQ on the deck. We are from Washington State all the way up north for a family wedding and was able to get together with all our family for an evening BBQ before we headed out. Views, quiet, really relaxing. Deck is a little unstable in a few spots, and the BBQ wasn’t working but my husband was able to get it fixed. Highly recommend!

It is rough around the edges. The owner is very responsive. The stay was pleasant and the kitchen had everything I needed to cook. Lovely river. Good wifi. TVs are from previous century so no smart features or chromecasting. You’ll be watching from your laptop, pad or a very dated collection of DVDs and VHS tapes. ##### Chloe J.

We were blessed to have found this gem at the last minute on a Holiday weekend and that allowed our fur babies too. The house was clean and spacious, well stocked with needed essentials.. We spent most of our time out on the huge deck taking in the beautiful nature scenery, relaxing and listening to the river flow by. My dogs had the best time, they loved being able to roam and explore along the river bank. This is just what we needed, a little weekend getaway to disconnect ,reflect and renew. Thank you Rita, you are a great host and appreciate your fast response when booking and your great accommodations. ##### Trina M.

This was a great location where we were able to relax and spend time with friends and family, and be able to include our dog Rocco. There was plenty of space, ample parking, and a comfort in which the property provided. We did notice that the house was not fully cleaned upon our arrival, the entry floor was not fully swept, there was a bag of trash in the master bathroom vanity, and the kitchen counter tops were very dusty. The master bedroom sliding door lock to the deck was broken and the dining room screen to the deck had holes near the handle. Overall though we enjoyed our stay and the property fulfilled our needs! ##### Erika H. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan 15 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication This place is paradise. Elk River is clear and beautiful. The house side of the river has has a sandy eddy for children to safely play in while the other side is deep for swimmers. We loved the quiet along with no light pollution. We saw a meteor shower. The kids were fascinated by the fish hatchery just a short walk away. It was fun watching occasional cars pass over the river on a swinging bridge. The 2 engineers in our group had quite a conversation over its construction. We ate all meals on the large deck. The home is roomy, clean and well stocked. ##### Susan Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### John 13 Jul 2025 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities I struggled on weather or not I would write this review but it was the property owners lack of accountability that made me write it. There were large holes all around the exterior walls of the home. It’s the woods so critters do enter the home from these holes. There was black mold in the master bathroom. The master toilet rocks when you sit on it. The jacuzzi tub does fill with water but the jets do not work. The owner laughed that off as a minor issue. The master shower and jacuzzi tub were dirty: master toilet had feces and pubic hair on the sear. Don’t let anyone lean on the deck unless you want to fall over as the railing is full of dry rot and rocks back and forth about 8 inches. There is also several broken plastic chairs and a patio table with a broken rusty leg and loose glass on it. The upstairs toilet also broke because the chain had rusted in the kids room there was a large broken mirror with a huge piece of broken glass sitting beside the mirror. The fridge shelve was broken and held together with a small piece of tape and the freezer had mold in it. The blender that was advertised didn’t work along with a few other appliances. And the list goes on and on. The main issue was the lady didn’t even offer an apology for any of this. ![Exterior wall with critter size holes](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/380649b5-6f6d-47fd-83af-bdcb22fcdbbe-1752380569883.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Huge rat hole in the entrance of the home/](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f44f77c8-2bd5-4717-b9b9-adcd2f4deba4-1752380570410.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Roof is falling apart ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/32cc20b2-a4a2-4c98-8e74-5247fdb0e235-1752380569884.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Broken mirror in the kids room](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b51f280f-5f2c-468c-b5b2-0419a8f2095b-1752380662897.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### John Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jamie W. 8 Jul 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### ALL linens needs washed between visitors, great place other then that. Had a great time and enjoyed our stay. A couple minor complaints were lots of excess dog hair on the futon that needed cleaned up, DVD's played in black-and-white for some reason And there were no curtains across the sliding door or dining room window which is very unsettling at night. We do have 1 major complaint , when checking out we noticed that only sheets and towels needed to be stripped to be washed between visitors, not blankets throws or pillow cases, when I reached out to the property owner shesimply avoided the question. With covid 19 circulating and everybody wanting to get out and about I think it is highly important that those blankets , throws, and pillow cases are all washed between visitors, had I known this was the case I would have brought my own bedding. Possibly more reviews on this specific issue might help them realize how important it is to have ALL linens washed between visitors. Overall had a great time. ##### Jamie W.
