Don’t recommend

The land lady was constantly writing to me to take the trash out and turn outside lights off. She was obviously watching what we were doing and made me feel very uncomfortable. She has a major I mean major fly issue that other houses there do not have. My son lives near there as well and no one around there has hundred of flies in the winter inside the house. I had to clean up hundreds of flies over our stay there, even in the sink, floors and windows near bath tubs and general floor. She has bug killing things which is why they were dead but it was so grossly out hygienic and considering we paid thousands of dollars for our stay it’s really gross. Then she made up reason to charge me for damages that we never did. She had things damaged like coffee table and chair ripped and even accused us of ruining sheets. Seriously don’t know I had to do an inventory of the damages in the house before we came to defend myself. I can’t believe she is a host as my ext with all my rental’s have been extremely helpful. She even accused me of my cat pooping in the bath when my cat was at the farm. She was just inventing an excuse. We rented for two weeks and no one came to clean in that time. My last place they had someone come so it was nice for us. We only slept at the house as I was at my sons farm every day all day. Anyway I would really watch it with this lady.

Nice cabin

We enjoyed the cabin, but this time of the year the water was down even at rock inland twin falls which was still great to go and see, the cabin has plenty of room to move around and sleep for a large family.

Tennessee Trip

The stay was fun and relaxing, my wife and I traveled from Florida to see our son and his fiancé. We spent most of our time with them, we enjoyed the mountains and the evening temperatures. Overall it was a very positive experience and visit.

Off the beaten path

If you are looking for a clean, cozy property in the country, this place is for you. The owner was excellent with communication The location was close to area state parks. We loved the views. Fromthe front of the house we saw cows grazing in the pasture. In the back we were able to see the river and one morning a couple of deer. Our trip was very relaxing.

What makes this property unique

Just a short walk down to the water with dock (steep walk back up)!
Very private, yet close to restaurants, shopping, convenient stores, etc.
Water level fluctuates in the off season.
