We stayed here specifically because my son loves fishing. The river was easily accessible and felt very private and peaceful, even though there were others fishing nearby. The cabin was charming and very clean. I absolutely love that the cabin was stocked with condiments and laundry detergent and more than one roll of toilet paper. Usually when we rent with VRBO, we end up spending money on things like toilet paper, paper towels, and condiments for our stay, and we didn’t have to do that this time. There were a lot of little thoughtful touches like this that we really appreciated. The owners were SO nice. Shortly after we settled in, my husband got stung by a wasp and we found a wasp’s nest. I messaged the owners to see if they had any wasp spray and they were there in less than 5 minutes taking care of the wasp nest, and they had Benadryl cream for my husband. They were SO apologetic and kind. We weren’t upset about the wasp’s nest, that’s not really something you can control, but I was really impressed with how responsive and quick they were. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay with them again if we return to the area.
