The cabin was just as advertised. King beds were comfortable. Fully equipped cabin. Nice living area, and area outside to sit and enjoy the surroundings. Had a great park across the street totally shaded. Would definitely recommend this cabin. The cabin is situated close to the other cabins, but no problems with noise or privacy.

Buffalo Point cabin is a true gem! Well-stocked with everything needed and more, it also offers a most comfortable setting along very nicely done decorating. The cabin is in walking distance to a couple of restaurants and a small grocery store. We were also just a short distance from great hiking opportunities to soak up the beauty of Wyoming. We highly recommend Buffalo Point for an amazing getaway in the heart of nature.

Thank you for such a thoughtful review of our Buffalo Point Cabin! We’re so glad you found it well-stocked, comfortable, and beautifully decorated—it means a lot to hear that it felt like a true gem for your getaway.
We also love that you were able to enjoy the convenience of nearby restaurants and the grocery store, along with the hiking and natural beauty that make Riverside so special. Your recommendation is greatly appreciated, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime!
Three couples shared two cabins. Trip was mainly for the guys to fish the area. Fishing was not too good, because of low water levels, but otherwise we had a good time. Cabins were very clean and well stocked. Convenient to the small towns and some restaurants. Very quiet location and across from a nice park. Would be a great place for family gathering.

Thank you, Ray! We’re so glad you and your group had a great time at Cottonwood Cabins, even if the fishing conditions weren’t ideal this time around. It’s wonderful to hear the cabins met your needs and that you enjoyed the peaceful setting and nearby amenities. We’d love to welcome you back for another visit—hopefully with better water levels next time!
We can’t thank the owners enough for providing this space! It was more than we thought; cleanliness, tidiness, perfect compliment of cooking tools in the kitchen, roving bands of wild turkeys and mule deer. We were intoxicated with the quietness and looking forward to visiting again soon. Thank you!

It was cool to wake up to deer looking in the window!! A few more kitchen essentials would have been nice(spices, condiments, ziplock bags)…things we’ve seen in other VRBO’s but it didn’t impact our stay!!
