The host was quick with communication from booking to leaving. The place is really decorated nicely and cozy to be in. There are small warmers for the sleeping area that made it toasty to get into bed. The kitchen was stocked with enough plates and other cutlery, dishwasher tabs, and pots and pans for my stay. The water became warm quickly and the shower pressure was sufficient.

Fishing cabin

It was overall a great place to stay for a short family gathering. Loved the river so close. Beautiful scenery, great location. The outdoor spaces are perfect for a cookout, a gas grill would have been nice.

Our family stayed two nights while visiting Bristol for the NHRA races and found the location peaceful and quiet. It had everything we needed, but we ate out for our meals. The property does have WiFi and streaming services which was nice. The deck and screened in porch is lovely as well. The house is older but well maintained.

This is a pretty decent place. Wouldnt recommend it for longer stays because the beds arent real comfortable and there isnt much tv on down times unless you subcribe to alot of streaming services, the wifi was pretty reliable. All in all. They are honest about the fishing cabin. What you see is what you get. If you are gonna do some fishing it is pretty steep to get down to the river. No steps directly off the road but once you get down that little bit there are some steps untill you get closer to the water...then no steps again. We had a fine stay for the most part though.

Yes there is high speed fiber optic internet and no cable tv. The queen bed, the full size futon pullout, and the twin bunk bed have memory foam mattress toppers. The steps are steep or ‘sloped’ at the river access to help kayakers and canoers with their boats.

pet friendly though we didn't bring our dogs, but they would have loved it! easy check in with code . i did not communicate with the host until after check out because we didn't have any problems, but im very sure if we did need to contact them there would've been no issues. very spacious yet compact cabin, very clean - even the dishes were completely spotless. usually i have an issue with lack of water pressure at remote cabins similar to this one, but the water pressure was great! beautiful view from the screened in front porch. lots of wildlife , we even got to hear a pack of wolves on the first night. wifi was great with multiple devices connected. there's an access just across the street to a river that would be perfect for kayaking . all in all just a very lovely little cabin , very cozy . the vintage westinghouse fridge/freezer was super cool (and worked very well) too ! unfortunately that's the only thing i took a picture of in the cabin definitely plan on coming back , but with the dogs next time .

This resort has been our resort we stay at three times a year and we have been very loyal and a family that doesn't cause any issues. We are clean and respectful but we won't be staying here again. The security guards are very rude and they made me and my daughters feel very uncomfortable. They kept yelling at the kids because the paper wristbands kept falling off in the ocean, the banana boat, pool, and they were completely careless with our young kids. There are many other resorts we will explore to accomodate our family without having the trouble we were given here. The head security guard threatened to keep my husband and call the police unless we paid 500 extra dollars for our very young kids. We will never spend another dime at this resort.

Overall a nice escape. Cute house in the middle of nowhere which is exactly what we were looking for. Please note: if you plan to do any cooking, BRING EVERYTHING YOU NEED. Cookware, drinking glasses and coffee mugs are limited. Bring food storage containers, spices, frying pan, etc. as none of that is there. No instructions were provided as to what was what inside the house so it was a guessing game on some things. Grill is charcoal so be prepared. Also, host has a camera pointed directly into the front porch so if you plan to spend a lot of time out there, either block it or know you are being watched. No guest book to sign or write notes or provide feedback in was provided either. There is no cell service at the house but there is WiFi, be prepared for that. Overall a lovely little place, just wish I had been better prepared by the host for what we needed to bring and the responses I got were either automated or extremely brief. Definitely would go back, now that I know what to bring.

I appreciate your feedback. Your stay is very special and I hope to have y’all back. The camera is in place for guests safety. The lense is wide angle to monitor river and road conditions, not guest activities. Much of what is happening on the porch or deck can not be distinguished.

Hello there is not much substance to your lower than usual review score.
