Such a beautiful location right along the river. The house is very inviting with all of the amenities that you would need. My husband and I cooked breakfast every morning and enjoyed sitting and eating while looking at the river. We had a great view of the full Beaver moon over the river and got to watch the fish jump and seeming glow in the moonlight.

Other than mosquitos it was beautiful. We used the cabin for Holiday World and it was about a 30 minute commute. The website says 21 miles. Would love to stay here in the winter. Great place and value.
Can't wait to come back!The cabin was spotless, well-appointed with everything I could need for my one week stay, including connections, nice pot, pans, and kitchen utensils, and an assortment if toiletries in case I forgot any of my own.
The cabin was fantastic. The kitchen had all the needed items for cooking. The beds were comfortable. The views were unbelievable. The host provided a telescope and binoculars for viewing. The porch had plenty of seating and a table for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. If you have a dog they have a doggie dog from the porch that leads to a ramp going down to a fenced in yard. There is also a gate on the porch if you have small children. The yard leading down to the river has a huge rock that is a great place to sit a watch the boats go by. There is a TV, but we never watched it. The cabin also has a washer and dryer. The host provides many little extras to make your stay pleasant.
Absolutely beautiful view big porch, comfortable chairs the amenities inside were above and beyond soft towels, comfortable beds and very clean community around is very polite well spoken and enjoy having you there
Great, clean property. We loved just relaxing on the deck and walking right down to the river. We have already talked about coming back and staying longer.
We enjoyed our stay! The property is beautiful. It’s as listed. Clean inside and out. The view from the fenced in porch is to die for. The view is a 10/10. We will be back again. Thank you so much.
This cabin was perfect for our weekend getaway. Amazing views of the water, huge deck for the kids to run around while the adults relaxed. Very clean and spacious cabin!
Initial impression upon entering the property is very positive, pleasing to the eye. The view of the Ohio is very satisfying. A generous kitchen and great room make the stay so enjoyable. A very large screen TV that can be easily viewed from anywhere in the kitchen or great room. The internet connection allows for your streaming pleasure. That was easy. Bedrooms were adequate and comfortable. The Bathroom is a generous size with a shower and lavatory. Bathroom is well stocked to provide you with most all of the basic essentials. A washer and clothes dryer is offered, I however did not use them. The big deck allows for the comfortable viewing of the river. I hope a solution for all the stink bugs can be applied here.A fully stocked kitchen makes for a good place to gather for a home cooked meal with the family. All the rest of the accomodations were very good. All this, and it is affordable. I hade an enjoyble time here. Thank you.
Exceeded view of river, well equipped wonderful places to explore. Great area restaurants. Friendly people As sn old retired journalist and often time travel writer, this ranks at the top of a 50 year list
My husband and I stayed two nights and could not have been more comfortable. The cabin was so well-equipped, clean, comfortable. The covered deck was a perfect place for early morning coffee, leisurely lunch and early evening games. And the view of the river? Absolutely beautiful!
We had so much fun staying here. The views were beautiful and serene, our boys loved fishing and playing catch to pass the time. We needed a place close enough to Louisville, KY so our boys could attend the National Archery competition. We were able to bring our fur babies, relax and enjoy. We also caught a show of the northern lights all overlooking the river! Hoping to be able to come back in years to come!!
Very clean and the floor plan was well suited for bigger parties. The porch was incredible and allowed for very relaxing outside time. Will definitely be going back! So happy to be able to take my larger, well behaved dogs with me. They were even calmer than normal!
