Wow! 10/10 Excellent "This is by far one of the BEST VRBO rentals we have ever stayed in! We absolutely LOVED the place. It exceeded our expectations for location, amenities, cleanliness, coziness....just everything you could hope for in a rental. We will be booking again as soon as we're able.Upon driving up to the cabin, we could see that it was situated right on the riverfront as stated in the description. The cabin was clean, charming, well appointed, cozy and roomy. While we only stayed in the 1st floor, there is room upstairs for at least 8 other guests if not more and aside from the bathroom downstairs, there were 2 more full bathrooms upstairs. The sunroom off the 1st floor bedroom is so cozy and surrounded by windows to watch the beautiful river and pine trees....perfect for reading. The kitchen is very well stocked with everything you need for cooking. Modern countertops and appliances. Comfy couches and recliner in living room, gas fireplaces that turn on with the flick of a switch for heating. Everything is done right in this cabin.The large decks had so much room and looked out over the river & forest. The lower deck next to the river was a great place to relax, sun and fish a little. Great place to relax!Jim was a fantastic host, responded to texts about check in promptly and left us alone unless we needed anything. Just a wonderful place, wonderful and relaxing stay and overall positive experience. Can't wait to go back!
