Rental Company was efficient, commutative and clear on check in/out process. Very smooth. Property was not as large as anticipated, but cozy. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t super corporative for our stay. We were unable to have an outside fire due to overgrown areas around the fire pit. River/Creek appeared more accessible in photos than it was. Overall nice property and would recommend for a couple getaway.

This is a hidden gem! Quiet, private, right on the Salmon River. The kitchen was stocked with whatever we needed, beds were comfortable, and we were so impressed with this rental! As always, the office is so nice, friendly and easy to work with. The only reason the 4 stars for condition, is the hot tub really wasn't working; and we specifically inquired about that before renting. Only one corner of jets worked, it could not heat hotter than 93 degrees and the lights didn't work. BUT the house was so great, really didn't affect us!
House is in lovely woodsy setting, Salmon River in view and earshot. Interior is comfortable, with wifi, tv, and other media; full kitchen amenities. Best part is the fireplace! Massive stonework, fireplace on one side and fireplace insert on other. Cool.

Reviewer Comments:
Cozy property right off hwy 26 but far enough into the woods that everything was quiet. We enjoyed two days/nights here hiking and relaxing. The property is near several hiking trails and right across from the Salmon river. Inside had everything you could need and was very clean. Would definitely stay here again.
Our mission was to have a quiet and peaceful 4th of July for our senior dog...accomplished. Listening to the sound of the river was perfect for his humans. Very relaxing.
As for the accommodations, it left a lot to be desired, at least for us. Especially for this nightly rate! There is rustic and then there is this. So many updates need to be done and some as simple as maybe some new curtains in the livingroom, or at least put a decent hem in them. The bath and kitchen towels were old, dingy and fraying. The only comfortable furniture was the queen bed in the front bedroom. The livingroom furniture was really bad, in terms of comfort. We ended up using the beanbag chairs, which for us older folks, wasn't ideal.
There were many items lacking in the kitchen for food preparation. Kudos to the PM for doing a little shopping and coming to the rescue. Some basics would be nice as well, like maybe a couple of simple spices, some regular vegetable oil, and how about a little starter bag of coffee? Bath soap bigger than the teeny-tiny bar provided? To borrow from the TV program "Vacation House Rules", maybe Rule #3...Be Your Own Guest!
Finally, it's possible that the PUR water filter needs to be changed? We can't confirm anything, but both my husband and I became violently ill. Him on the 2nd to last day of our stay, and me the day after we got home. I'll spare you the details, but it was BAD! Consider bottled water (even for cooking) and ice purchased at the store.
Amazing location, very secluded and away from busy life. Hearing the river at night was incredibly relaxing. The hot tub was clean, kitchen, bedrooms, and bathrooms are very well stocked. The house appears to be on a bit of a slant (part of it’s rustic charm) and there were a few dead beetles around the house, but at least they weren’t alive! Deer passed through while we ate outside. Loved it, will absolutely stay again!

Priced higher than what it was worth
The river was lovely and surrounding area great. Nearby store and some restaurants, bakeries. Hot tub would have been great, however, only had a chance to use one night as the temperature decreased rapidly. The second night the water was about 73°. Not much of a hot tub! The house is slanting and so there are large cracks near fireplace, which was not usable, and boards were holding the ceiling up in the kitchen. 😳 When you was from the bathroom to the living room the slant of the house is extremely noticeable there. Neighbors house was really sketchy as it appeared to be abandoned for sometime with all the furnishings out front and around the property, unkempt for sometime.
A warning for all with sensitive breathing issues: this house has mold/ mildew. It hits you upon entering with opening windows/doors doing little to help you take in a clean breath. We coped by getting outside to open air restaurants, coffee shops, rivers & lakes. Also, watch out for the main bed. Although offering a sound matress, hard handles on underneath d

Sleeps up to 4 comfortably. Lots of kids and family games available and big screen tv for at home entertainment. The septic tank will need to be replaced soon but highly recommended this "homey" property.
The place is mostly 'charming vintage' but almost too much so. Musty and a little grubby. Near the river, but the access was not great. We had a great time, but it might not be the right place for some. Beds were comfortable and it was easy to find and listening to the river was pleasant.
We had a great stay at this rustic cabin. It is a stone's throw away from a large creek/small river. Loved sitting in the hot tub at night listening to the creek. Everything was nice & well cared for. The inside was very rustic/old/cabin decor...not new or fancy, but again, nice and enjoyable & clean.

The cottage was very relaxing and quiet. The bed was super comfortable.
Honestly, I liked this place a little more than I was expecting to! It was very comfortable, very clean and great for a getaway. The wood fire kept us warm (along with baseboard heaters) and we loved floating in the hot tub. Kitchen was well equipped with the basics and the house was very close to the river. I walked out and enjoyed my coffee watching it in the mornings on the bench across the access road :)

Fine for a short stay
The hot tub saved this place. The cabin is actually across the street from the river, and the hot tub is on the front deck. Luckily it is on a dead end street with only one other house beyond, so not really anyone walking by, except for the occasional dog walker. The cabin itself was small, cold and somewhat dark. It was fine for two people and dogs for two nights, but if we were staying longer we would have wanted something nicer. We expected better for what we paid, it seemed expensive for what it was. We contacted the rental office and we were allowed to check in an hour early. Aside from that, communication with management was poor. The wifi did not work, and none of my messages were returned. Prior to our stay I emailed with questions and those were not responded to, either. Some reviews talked about the fireplace being inoperable but there was nothing in the description or paperwork about that. When we arrived there was no sign stating not to use it, but there were candles inside the fireplace so we didn’t use it. There is a wood stove in the kitchen that works. We enjoyed the hot tub and hiking nearby.
The cabin was great. Smart TV was good to have and the wood burning stove was really nice. Based on the pictures, I thought it would be more secluded, but there were some other houses right next door. That didn't really affect my stay, they were very quiet, just something to point out. Overall great stay.
