About this cabin rental
Come visit this perfect weekend getaway! Located in an “exclusive” laid back river cabin community with amazing views of the Mississippi River, great fishing opportunities and lots of wildlife. Only located 8 miles from a small town USA that has restaurants and golfing. All river cabins in this area are on stilts due to seasonal flooding. This location is a three bedroom, one bath with recent mid-century modern updates. In addition to this river cabin being one of the newest in the area it is also one of the only cabins that has wifi! Hurry up and book now! This river cabin is only available between Spring and Fall.
An inflatable paddle board and two inflatable kayaks are available to use during our guests stay.
About our river community…
River communities much like the one we are located in where first built in the 1950’s. This way families could go on vacation without traveling far away. From there they were past down from generation to generation and rarely went for sale. Which makes these communities tight knit and “exclusive”. Some cabins in the area are still being remodeled after years of flooding.
Most locals love to fish, go on boat rides, side by side rides and have bonfires on the weekend. If your not into fishing you can read a book on the porch, barbecue on our ceramic akorn grill or go golfing at the local golf course. River life is all about being yourself and having fun. During the week you can expect quite evenings and during the weekend our neighbors are also enjoying the area.
*Due to our remote area all cabins in this area have a shallow point well to receive water. Our water has been filtered and is also sanitized through a water system. It’s perfect for showers and cleaning dishes however we prefer to drink bottled water. (The water is high in iron and can give off a smell from time to time.)*

The cabin was cute and nicely updated. The inside was very clean, well furnished, and stocked with all of the essentials. The outside had some useful amenities and a relaxing atmosphere but it wasn't as well kept as the inside. There were tons of spider webs, which wasn't unexpected, but the entire exterior could have used a good powerwash.The location/neighborhood seemed somewhat ok but it isn't the most diverse place and some may not feel welcome in that area. The neighbor next door that is renovating his cabin was very friendly and even suggested a few things for us to do.Overall we enjoyed our stay and the host was quick to respond whenever I had to communicate with them.

I'm trying to be fair. 3 stars because it is a beautiful location would be a 5 if we didn't experience issues.Upon arrival: Most of the dishes were unclean (we cleaned everything we wanted to use when we arrived). No dish clothes to wash the dishes so we had to use a towel. Dozens of flies (we killed several, others just joined us as un-invited guests). Water went out (after contacting owner we found out their system flushes every 3 days and water is out about an hour but should have disclosed this).Tseveral strands of long hair in the bathroom The tv didn't work the roku stick was misplaced? daughter went behind t.v. to look for it and it was very dirty with cobwebs, etc. on the floor. No luck - again, not a major deal).When these concerns were mentioned we received prompt replies but one "blamed" things on the cleaning person must not having checked the dishes that were put away, etc. because they had guests for 2 weeks prior that were "extra messy." While instructions said to do dishes before we leave, we didn't (again, no wash clothes & we were in a hurry - we also forgot to take out the trash to which the owner was gracious about). VRBO require hosts to perform enhanced cleaning and disinfecting between stays, which includes thoroughly washing all dishes and utensils - not just what is left in the dishwasher. Otherwise, who is to say a guest didn't let their dog lick clean. Offered refund but didn't get full refund back.
