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

Waterfront Cabin with Hot Tub! Free Kayaks & Canoes, Fishing Boats, & Bicycles!

Small waterfront 1-bed private cabin with a view of an undeveloped state-owned island. It is about the size of an extended-stay hotel room. There is a double-sized bed and a pull-out sofa bed that will accommodate 2 children.

There is a small kitchen area and a bathroom with a shower. There is a Smart TV with both WIFI and cable.

Everything you'll need is included - linens, bedding, silverware, dishes, pots, pans, cooking utensils, hand soap, paper towels, bathroom tissue, and hand towels.

There is a Circle K gas station with all the necessities that is open 24/7 just 2 1/2 miles away. There is a large Kroger grocery store about 5 miles from the cabin that is open until 10 pm.

Enjoy the free use of our kayaks, canoes, paddle boats, and fishing boats, to navigate between the beautiful islands across from your cabin. While the river is usually no higher than waist deep, life vests for both adults and children are provided and required by law.

There is a 12-mile-long hiking and biking trail that abuts our property and runs through the woods along the river. We have complimentary bikes of every size.

My husband and I purchased the 12 cabins that are "Riverwood Log Cabins" in 1998 and live midway through the property in the brown "A" frame should you need anything.

We even supply wood for your first campfire!

Well-behaved pets are always welcome at no extra charge but, must be on a leash when outside when other pets are present. Smoking is permitted outside.

Thanks

A little difficult to find but nicely located for river and bike trail access. Cabins are dated but functional and we knew it would be a tight squeeze in the small cabin we booked. Hosts and managers were super friendly and on property so that is a big plus. If you are used to camping or roughing it a little then this property is perfect. Hosts did offer us a bigger cabin but we were already unpacked.

Awesome Family Trip!

We booked a cabin to spend time playing board games and fishing. The cabin was perfect -- we had a great table to play games on and a beautiful back porch for views of the river. The hosts provided us with kayaks (and a trip upriver so we could float down!) and access to a fishing boat. The city of Waterville had great food and was close to mini golf and a fun mall. Parker, Cathy, Glen, and Samantha were all amazing. We will be back!

BEST STAYCATION EVERY

I can not say enough good things about Parker & Cathy or their slice of heaven on the river. I am a single woman and I often travel alone. It is hard to find a place where I feel totally safe. Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND for single moms with their kids, families or women wanting to travel alone.

Fantastic little get-a-way

If you are looking for something simple, modest, and carefree...this is great choice.If you are looking for bougie and fancy, This is not the place for you. There were 12 of us. Ages 1 month- 70 years. We stayed in tents and 2 cabins. Had a great time! Will be back!

Excellent Stay! Amazing Hosts!!

We had such an amazing time. The hosts are very accommodating, thoughtful and kind. The places are very cozy, views are spectacular and the hot tub was fantastic. We didn't go in the river, but if the weather was warmer we would have taken a canoe or kayak for a spin. We will be back for sure!!
