About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Charming riverside retreat

Historic cabin built in the 1920's. Dr. Fine, the county's only doctor, used the cabin as his fishing getaway. The fishing hole is located at the big bend, just below the fork of the North and Middle Forks of the Smith River.

Nestled among the old growth Douglas Firs, and a quiet beach with private access, this cozy cabin has it all!

In all directions, are views of the pristine Smith River and National Forest. Birds are abundant! We are visited by Osprey, Kingfishers and a resident Bald Eagle. The yard brings songbirds and various bird species that provide hours of fun for birders.

Smith River Charm

Cozy cabin with absolutely everything you need. Just bring your food and wonderful assortment of pans and spices to cook with. Close to mountains, redwoods, hiking trails, the Smith River, and at the right time of year - waterfalls! Not as secluded as we thought it might be, but still wonderful. We felt like we had complete privacy and we also felt safe. Thank you for sharing your cabin.

Perfect Riverside Retreat!

All positive comments in all the reviews are true! This little cozy cabin is even better in person. 3 days was not enough to visit all the nearby parks and trails and the rugged Oregon coast. The cabin was so homey to return to each evening.The beauty of the river is awesome! Thank you!

Incredible

Incredible stay; traveling with an infant and a toddler and a husky, and we were so impressed with how kid friendly, cosy and clean the property was. We came during a winter storm, and while we had issues with flooding and landslides in route, the property itself was everything we were hoping for. We will certainly be returning again!

Lovely cabin in an extravagantly beautiful location.

Cabin seems smaller on the outside than it actually is on the inside. Inside it's clean, cozy, and well stocked. HUGE deck in front with tables, chairs, heater, gas fire pit, hammock, and a short walk down to the river, which is just beaytiful.

Perfect Getaway

We had a long weekend and had been throwing the idea of doing the redwood national and state parks for a while. We split our trip up, one night in eureka and two nights here, and this was absolutely the highlight of the trip! We even cut some of our hiking time down to come back to the cabin and hang out by the river. The cabin was peaceful and quiet, and overall is was such a dream. We can’t wait to come back! Ps. My husband set off the fire alarm accidentally the first night and property owner was so very nice even though we were thoroughly embarrassed.

Spring Road Trip 2025

I have stayed here before and loved every minute I was there. I decided to stay a week and enjoy days hiking and exploring the Redwoods, Crescent City and a visit with my sister In Grants Pass. Having this lovely cabin as my home base was perfect. It has all the things you need to have a great trip. The owners are kind and helpful. It made a great base to have while I hiked, walked, drove through beautiful Redwoods, spent time at Crescent Beach, and ventured up to Oregon to Grants Pass and Medford. I enjoyed the stunning Smith River and waved at friendly rafters and kayakers. I could not have asked for a better time. Weather was outstanding. The cabin was warm and inviting after a day of exploring. Overall a grand time. I look forward to returning to this fantastic place.
