5.0 / 10.0·Aug 2020
Very remote cabin with river access. The cabin is simple and cozy. There is very limited wifi access from inside Cabin 1 (honestly I was fine with this, got the kids off the electronics).The river is a quick 2-3 minute walk down a trail. There is also access to the river down a path wide enough for a truck, but you need a vehicle with higher clearance.We were there in August so it was hot but the water levels were a little lower. We spent all day in the river, kayaking, fishing, wading and exploring. There was even a small sit inside kayak all three of our kids were able to use by themselves. There was abundant wildlife. We saw deer every morning and evening as well as a fox, eagles, and heron. The river had lots of sunfish, bluegill, largemouth, striped and I think small mouth bass? I also saw catfish but didn't catch any. I saw one snake the entire time we were there but couldn't identify it.The kids didn't want to leave. By the second day of our four day trip they were asking when we would come back. It is quite remote and about a 20-30 minute trip back to town, but that was exactly what we were looking for. If you are looking for an unplugged, outdoor vacation that is off the beaten path you should really give this place a look.
