Relaxing and Cozy

Tranquil property right on the river. Despite the bad weather Mother Nature decided to bring during our stay, it was still a great getaway with peace, and relaxation. The hot tub was a nice touch to enjoy on the front porch watching the river and all the birds feeding from the birdhouse. Was just right for what we needed.

A little peace and quiet

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend at Moondance cabin. This is the second time we have stayed at this cabin. It’s so relaxing sitting on the deck, looking at the Ohio River, watching the barges on the river and listening to the chimes. Such relaxation.

Last minute weekend getaway

This cozy cabin is perfect for 2 couples. The views are wonderful. We thoroughly enjoyed the porch swing and rocking chairs. The evenings around the fire pit were magical. Watching the barges go up and down the Ohio River is simply relaxing. Thanks, Bud! We’ll be back.

A Little Bit of Heaven

This was a beautiful setting, with a large deck facing the river. The cabin was very clean and comfortable, with large windows viewing the river. Everything we needed was provided. We did not cook any meals, so I can't say anything about cooking items. There is no question about us returning for another visit, we definitely will. Thank you Bud and Marcia for a wondertime.

Relaxing

Beautiful property. Great view of the Ohio River. Absolutely LOVED sitting on the back porch, swinging and listening to my music while watching the boats and jet skis pass by. Note… you cannot sit off the edge of your back porch and cast off into the River to fish. You cannot fish from this property. Took 1 star off of cleanliness because the hot tub water was sketchy. There was no way that was fresh City water in that tub, and if your charging an extra hot tub fee then by God make sure the water is sparkling clean.

Charming Cabin with Stunning Views, but Some Notable Drawbacks

We truly enjoyed our stay at the cabin, which offered a breathtaking view of the Ohio River and the surrounding countryside. The large windows and charming atmosphere made it a delightful retreat.However, we encountered a few challenges that impacted our experience. The listing describes the cabin as having three bedrooms, but the second bedroom is an open loft with no privacy, and the third is actually a pull-out couch in the small living room. The appliances, including the washer, dryer, oven, stove, and dishwasher, are quite dated and only functioned adequately. We had planned to cook during our four-day stay and brought food, but the potato peeler, scissors, and can opener were difficult to use. The deck area near the bird feeder was noticeably dirty with bird droppings. Additionally, the Wi-Fi stopped working on the second day and wasn’t restored during our 4 day stay. We also noticed small ants throughout the cabin and found the towels to be quite worn.Despite these issues, the cabin’s charm and stunning views made for a memorable stay, though we hope these concerns can be addressed for future guests.

Poor Customer Service

Owner took off for the weekend and was not available to assist us when we accidentally locked ourselves out of the cabin - something that can happen to anyone. Without contacting us to discuss anything, he then attempted to charge us for damage to the property we never caused and insulted us on our physical size stating that we were definitely not petite. We even left a tip for housekeeping, stripped the sheets, did the dishes, emptied the trash, and collected the dirty towels. The cabin was completely NOT sprayed outside for spiders as they were everywhere. Want to enjoy the hot tub? Better hire an exterminator first, they were crawling all over the back deck and hot tub cover. We have had IMPECCABLE ratings and always treated properties with the utmost respect. He should have contacted us first to discuss his concerns, instead we see a bill from him - judgment and sentence pronounced, case closed. One would have expected a more reasonable approach to communicating, as well as better protocol for reaching a live on site person at his compound. We got a text saying he was out of town, that's it.

Fall weekend at Moondance Cabin

The cabin had big, beautiful windows and it was very spacious for my husband and our two fur babies. It was fantastic weather and was very relaxing watching the barges and river activity on the deck.

Girlfriend Getaway

We loved it from the moment we got there. All the essentials you need. Movies, games, a puzzle, lots of food. There was not a good view of the moon either night so I plan to come back for that river experience. We did see a lot of barges on Saturday. Squirrels and lots of birds. Weather was a little cold so we stayed inside and did not do a fire but next time we will.

Yearly Trip

Overall great. I would suggest there be a few more things in the rental such as olive oil and sugar. We could only find a extra blanket and the nights were chilly but the hot tub and grill and the view was great!!! Also a little bit more explanation on pet policy. We had a friend stop by with a small dog for 2 hours and understandable they wanted some pet money. This was unexpected on my part and Bub was willing to negotiate. Oh, and the stairs in need some attention. But as I stated this was all in all a great experience and would recommend highly!

Fabulous stay on the river

It is a very scenic spot right on the Ohio River. The most relaxing trip I’ve had in a while. Bud and Michelle do a great job taking care of all the details. Plenty of linens, paper products, and even down to the supplies for morning coffee. Well equipped kitchen. I would advise bringing all of your groceries as it is a long way to the nearest grocery store. Six stars in my book! Highly recommend.
