Beautiful and secluded

The cabin is located in a beautiful, secluded spot near the river. It is comfortable and tastefully furnished with a great kitchen. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting outside on the wraparound porch listening to the birds and watching the stars from the hot tub. The quiet setting was just what we needed. Hosts were very accommodating too. We would definitely stay again!

Truly a gem, highly recommend!

Our family of 5 stayed over the holidays and could not have asked for a better experience! The hosts were fantastic- quick communication & all the info we needed to prepare in advance.The cabin was stunning, better than photos & loved how they decorated for the holidays! We were comfortable and cozy, loved the fireplaces, hot tub and whirlpool tub. Everything was immaculately clean and kitchen well stocked for cooking. It would be a great romantic getaway but families will also feel at home with board games & plenty of space to relax. Feels remote but was a quick trip to Ferryville, 15 mins across the river to a large nature center, and several hiking options 20-45 mins away (we opted for Wyalusing State Park). The hosts have several properties in the area and we'll absolutely be booking again to try out another! Thank you for the great memories

Hidden Gem

Cabin was clean and comfortable, great location, and manager very responsive. Enjoyed watching the bats after sundown. However, may not be the best choice when the weather is very hot and humid. Cabin has 4 wall mounted air conditioners and when all are operating the noise becomes very annoying. On a day when the temperature hit 96 degrees the unit in the upstairs master bedroom could not lower the room temperature below 80 degrees. That night we had to relocate to the downstairs bedroom.

Anniversary Getaway

The property and area were just beautiful! My husband and I kayaked on an inlet lake, Green Lake, at Blackhawk Park boat landing, hiked Sugar Creek Bluff, dined at Jone’s Angus Supper Club, and kayaked on Wyalusing State Park’s 6-mile canoe trail during our stay. The hot tub was refreshing, the bed and pillows were comfortable, and the scenery was breathtaking. Great sunsets off the Mississippi River, and eagles galore! This property is in nature’s paradise! 5 stars for location and amenities! No complaints necessary nor assistance needed from the property owners. A well-equipped home for a couple or a family. Just what every renter hopes for! Privacy, relaxation, and serenity abound at Hidden Gem. We hope to be back!

Outstanding

We were in the area for a wedding reception, and luckily found this house. Immaculate property with everything you would want in a house whether it is a short stay, or extended period of time. A very clean house and everything provided, with a relaxing hot tub being a bonus. Communication throughout was perfect - you would be lucky to have a chance to stay here!
