Lovely location, appreciated minimum checkout instructions and low cost cleaning fee. Kitchen setup was fine for two people. The addition of a drying rack might be helpful for those of us who are old school and prefer not to run pans through the dishwasher lol, but that’s a tad nitpicky. Really lovely spot and would stay there again.

Perfect fall weekend getaway

The cabin is better in person than the pictures on the listing. Very clean, comfy, quiet and easy to get to. Kitchen had everything we needed, plenty of towels, beds were comfy... we had a great stay! We spent our time hiking and found some great places to eat in west branch. Would definitely book again

Great experience!

Can’t say enough how perfect this place was! It was even better in person than the photos showed. My son, my brother, and I stayed there while hunting near by. It was super clean, beautiful, comfy, had everything here we needed. And, the owner was so gracious and helpful. I would highly recommend this place!!!

Second time we stayed here, loved it as much as the first time. Very quiet and relaxing. Our dog had a ball exploring all that she could in the woods. Cabin had all that we needed. We even got into the river, a bit chilly, but then it was October. Thank you Chris. 😊

Quick, Easy, Cheap

We went with 3 people in the beginning of Nov. For the price (at that time) you are getting a very good deal compared to other similar locations. If this option was available at that same price in the summer it would be a steal. The place was clean, easy access to riverfront, close to West Branch, and secluded. Host responded to any questions very quickly. Would strongly consider staying here again either in the summer or hunting in the fall.

Exactly what we were looking for

The property is in a beautiful location tucked into the woods backing up to the rifle river. We stayed in November, so we didn’t get the chance to use the fire pit, large back porch, grill, or kayaks, but the setup was great. The house/cabin was clean and had every amenity we needed. Comfortable beds, washer/dryer, stove, oven, microwave, coffee pot, cable TV, WiFi, etc. Check in/out was very easy and hassle free. Grocery store, gas stations, etc., are about 15 minutes away. Highly recommend.
