Private Off Grid cabin on North Fork of Smith River - WiFi - Pet Friendly

Listen to the roar of the Smith River
Most pristine un-dammed river in the country
Off grid cabin on 9 riverfront acres--caretaker on site
Limited fishing because it is near the spawning grounds
Completely secluded
Great swimming hole nearby
16 miles to nearest neighbors
New modern but rustic kitchen with soapstone, gas cooktop, refrigerator, and dishwasher. No oven, no microwave, no freezer
Outdoor wood fired BBQ area
Granite slab shower
Soapstone counters throughout
Queen bed in loft
This is not the kind of place you are going to come to and then run out for dinner or groceries--BRING EVERYTHING YOU NEED. 20 MILES OF DIRT ROAD WHICH TAKES 1.5 HOURS TO GET TO ANY AMENITIES.
NO CELL PHONE SERVICE
Good WiFi
20 miles of dirt road--4 wheel drive recommended but not necessary.
PERFECT FOR
Kayakers and rafters
Jeep enthusiasts
Wildflower enthusiasts
People who want to camp but with comfortable beds, hot water and flushing toilets.
People who just want privacy and quiet (although the public does come to the swimming hole across the road and there is a campground across the river--people do not trespass because of locked gate but sometimes they are NOT quiet)
Caretaker on property to restart power in case someone tries to use a blow dryer and shuts off power.
Think of it as the kind of seclusion you would get at a fire lookout except this property has river frontage
The access for rafting the north fork of the smith river is right across from the driveway to the house
Public campground across river from property
NO SMOKING ALLOWED IN ANY OF THE BUILDINGS

PRIVATE COMFORTABLE ESCAPE
Small (preferable), luxurious features (stove, shower, sinks, and the floors, the little drawer knobs, and even the little wood stove is a luxurios feature!). All the windows - curtains aren't necessary because there are no other cabins anywhere! That is wonderful! It is what makes it so special. No cabin on every side of you like other places! It's just you, the river, the pasture, the creek, the rain, the owner's home a far distance but close enough for friendship. It's just a great experience. Don't tell too many people or you'll never get a reservation!

Perfect Get Away
Sure, our friends assumed that this was an isolated cabin specifially for a murder but it was everything we were looking for. It may be off grid, but with electricity running hot and cold water, a gas range, dual refrigerator drawers, internet and a large shower it certainly didn’t fee off grid. But trust us, you’re out there. Exactly 20 miles from pavement to cabin front door and we didn’t see a single person. The wood burning stove was all stocked and sized to keep the cabin just warm enough where you can crack a window for cool air in the upstairs bedroom And yeah, the upstairs toilet is weird. Until it’s 2am and you need to pee and don’t want to walk down the stairs. Still weird, but it makes sense. This is not an area for hiking. We did a bit of exploring and the river is amazing. But you’re here to reconnect with your SO or to just disconnect from everything Made some amazing meals. Drank great wine. Smoked weed at the little bench by the little pond. For three straight days. This is why we recommend this place whole heartedly. We are so coming back.

One of the most excitijg and relaxing getaways ever. The drive from the highway to the cabin itself is breathtaking. Honestly, couldn't think of a better location or place for the new year. Even my kitty loved it. 😺

Peace of mind at deep mountain
It was literally unique experience in my life. And I can recommend this place to other people if they also want to stay away from city life for a while. Personally, a few upgrade might be possible such as installing any sofa for couple or family. We took lots of happy pictures at many peaceful moments. Thanks for everything :)

Amazing oasis
Beautiful property and cozy cabin. We loved how remote the location was and enjoyed many days having the swimming holes on the smith river to ourselves. The cabin and pond area were enchanting and relaxing. If you want privacy at the river come during the week. Expect to unwind and settle into the rhythms of the place.
