First I need to let everyone know that the access road to my place is a rightaway through a neighbors property. This property is a 10 mph or less and it has a mobile home on it and you must never stop on this property and never exit your vehicle and continue on gravel road 200 yards to the rental house at the end of he road please.A gorgeous 15 mile drive along the South Fork of the Smith River gets you to the river side house located in an area named 'Big Flat' as it is a big flat area high in the mountains where the inland tribes gathered to meet the coastal tribes. Rich in natural history and scenic beauty, this is the type of place one wants to check in, and 'check out'. Surrounded by the sights and sounds of the river rushing by as well as a multitude of songbirds and miles of majestic wilderness, there is opportunity for swimming, rafting, tubing, hiking, cycling, fishing, kayaking or just laying on the river view deck soaking up the sun in summer or snuggling by the fire in colder months. The house affords the ability to rough it in great comfort as it has full amenities while being off the grid, we have equipped it with solar power and propane appliances.Due to the solar power system capacity--- microwaves,toasters,hairdriers and other resistance appliances will drain the system. In addition to the river being on the property there are several small lakes with good fishing that can be driven to. Also there are several lakes that are good backpack trips in the higher mountains.We also have a trail head to the Kelsey trail near the house. The Kelsey trail is part of the Pacific Crest trail.For more information see the Six Rivers National Forest map....many things to do.....if you see a bear just make some noise and he will run away......harmless......just don\`t leave tasty smelling food out that would attract them......Jim remember.....no hairdriers,microwaves,toasters or toaster ovens,waffle irons or electric skillets...we are on a solar system....for lights mainly...... ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Shampoo - Shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - Cable/satellite channels - DVD player - Games - Music library - Stereo - Video games - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Outdoor furniture ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 9 steps to reach entrance - No elevator (single-level property) - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - In the mountains - Near a hospital - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the sea - On a lake - On a river - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Golf - Birdwatching nearby - Casino nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rafting nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Spelunking nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Water tubing nearby - Whale watching nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Property located in a resort - Unit size: 1,600 square feet ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27330000/27321700/27321691/4c39960b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Picturesque forest homes Crescent City - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 9.8 Exceptional 265 reviews CA $246 CA $611 total includes taxes & fees Feb 9 - Feb 10 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=27321691&PinnedHotelID=27321691&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/113000000/112070000/112061900/112061823/595e00e6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Marvelous cottage with Hot Tub in Crescent City Crescent City - Hot tub - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-18&endDate=2026-02-19&selected=112061823&PinnedHotelID=112061823&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33940000/33934100/33934032/cb228133.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 'Elve Huset' (Norwegian River House) Gasquet - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 10 Exceptional 95 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-18&endDate=2026-02-19&selected=33934032&PinnedHotelID=33934032&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/115000000/114910000/114900500/114900410/283988c5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Comfortable home near the Avenue of the Giants with large pond on the Eel River.

We do this once a year and completely unplug from phones, computers, etc. This place was perfect for exactly that. It's remote and there's nothing better than the sound of a river. We had a total of 4 adults, 3 kids, and our 2 labs. Everyone had a wonderful time. It's a little bit of a walk to the river but once there, it's secluded and water is crystal clear.

Jun 10, 2012 #### Surpassed Our Expectations Jim, Just wanted to let you know we thoroughly enjoyed our accommodations and stay on the Smith River. We prepared all of our evening meals there at the cabin. The visit to the river was worth the climb back up. Everything was top notch. Pleasantly and Enjoyably, the word burning stove got plenty of use. It is plain to see that you put considerable thought into making your guest's stay a very enjoyable experience. We wanted for Nothing. You were a Great Host. Again -- A very pleasurable and enjoyable time in your secluded spot on the planet. Highly Recommended.

The drive alone is what keeps this from being a 5 star property; all else was just fine--knowing it is a rustic cabin. Beds were very comfortable to sleep on and plenty of them! The amenities in the kitchen and towels were plenty and whimsical--as all are mismatched! This is off the grid, so know you don't have air conditioning and have to be mindful of electric and water usage. Our family of 6 had no problems with water and always had enough for quick hot showers. The ceiling fan was not working during our stay, but opening windows cooled the place down quickly. They have a grill and nice table outside along w a fire pit and plenty of wood onsite. (The deck needs some repairs as some of the floor boards were weak and wiggly). The hike to the water is a steep, slick trail with a metal cable to guide you, but we managed just fine--and beautiful clear water was fun for kids (11-18 years). The drive--I knew from other reviews it was a bit of a drive, but missed the winding, winding, and more winding--and DO NOT take the Stout Grove route if you arrive after dark! (Much longer and gravel single lane at times--map needs to be modified to show accurate travel times and label "best route".) We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and family time. Played games at the kitchen table each night while enjoying the incredible view of the stars. Great property, but know other area attractions will involve a bit of a drive there and back. ##### Tiffany S. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2016 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Caroline A.
