Entire house is yours for your stay. To use the private river frontage just walk down the gravel drive or drive your car down to river where drive turns left, stay straight there and pull up near the picnic table.
The 70 feet of river is marked by an old wooden chair and you’ll see a wooden picnic table and two plastic lounge chairs. Our frontage is all the shore between the tall wooden fence on right and a house on left with copper roof. There are large rocks on each side of property line.

We rented this place for the ushers that were part of our daughter’s wedding at Howard Creek Farm. The location is great, so easy to get to from the venue, with lots of parking. The house is compact but works great for 2 people. It is nicely done, with air conditioning, a nice kitchen and bath. The host communicated well and responded quickly. This place was perfect for our needs.

Very clean and well stocked including toiletries, snacks, feminine hygiene products, bedding and towels and cleaning supplies. Good internet connection, one window unit AC that works well in summer heat. Jamie is quick to respond and kind. Charming interior and pet friendly including dog toys and freeze dried liver treats. Beautiful spot by the river to fish/ hangout. Overall a great stay for 1-2 people and a pet.

Cabin had absolutely everything you would need to cook which was nice and lots of extras. It seemed someone might have came by while we were away one day and turned our chairs over outside. But other than that great cozy stay!

Excellent stay!

The cabin looked great inside. Quiet, clean and cute. Had everything you needed and more. Loved that it had extra touches with some spices and a few groceries including coffee on hand - felt hospital and welcoming. Jaime is a great host!
