About this property

An authentic riverfront escape for outdoor lovers, anglers and bird-watchers

  • Cozy, comfortable, clean cabin, rescued in late 2025. Softened water, whole-house water filter, with a large generator as a backup power source in the event of a weather related act of God causing power loss. The generator is easily capable of running the entire house. This cabin is right on the Iroquois River! Be aware the steps to the river are under extreme duress during high water seasons. if you have mobility challenges the stairs may not work for you. The Internet service available is Starlink, and the Roku TV connects to it. Verizon does have service. T Mobile and AT&T are both spotty at best. This is not the place to run games that require massive downloads of data, Starlink will slow after priority data is used. There are ice trays in the freezer. There is a coffee pot with coffee and filters. There is a Blackstone grill and a small charcoal grill. This is a cabin, It is clean, relaxing, away from the grind of life, and my family loves it here. It is suitable for traveling technicians, nurses, any type of traveling worker, and vacationers and we give a substantial discount for weekly and monthly stays! Orkin controls the bug population as this is a rural, woodsy area. The garage is available to use and a great place to store your gear. There are two picnic tables in the garage, a large cooler, and soft evening lighting available. This is not the Hilton, it is a river cabin, designed to be used by those who value a clean, cozy, woodsy cabin experience and yearn for a quiet, safe place to stay.

The cabin was very clean, cozy, and peaceful! So relaxing being by the river. The kids loved kayaking. Loved that the cabin was out of town and had privacy. The host was very friendly and was timely on responses. We had to come down for my uncle's funeral and we realized that our family was from the same area as the host. Thanks again for letting us stay at your beautiful cabin! We plan on staying again in the future!

Cozy cottage on the river. Lovely swing to sit and watch the sun rise. Quiet, but make sure you bring groceries as there is not a store. We had to go about 30 minutes to get food. Only one restaurant in the town.
