Fantastic retreat!

Overall the place was amazing. Slept 7 no problem.The house was nice but we spent more time outside (obviously). Hottub worked great. Exploring the river and behind the cabin took up a morning. There is a million things to do in the surronding area. Highly recommend River Drifters. Us and the kids enjoyed it. We would come back anytime.

nice spot

overall the cabin was what is shown. the road into the neighborhood was really rough to drive on with a sedan, lots of potholes filled with bricks but otherwise a nice spot. grocery store and gas station are 2 mins away which was very convenient. the house had everything we needed and had lots of space for entertainment. the river area is beautiful and the hot tub was very clean!

Outstanding home away from home

We enjoyed everything about Stone’s throw! The short hike to the water, basketball, corn hole and the evenings were spectacular out on the back deck! The hammock was a big hit too:)

Private house with river trail

Great privacy at the house! Loved the little trail back to the Sandy River with a little shore for the boys to play with sand. Great hot tub that had a perfect forest view.

Great spot

Loved our stay here. The view from upstairs was beautiful, there is a river that’s a short walk from the house that was awesome. We could hear the rushing water from the house. Kitchen area was roomy, we had a great stay. Thank you for sharing your home.

Cabin Trip

The location was perfect, the cabin had everything that was needed. The main highlights were the hot tub and its location and the easy access to view the river. The only issue is the shower head upstairs did not work which was inconvenient especially with a house full of girls and the check out was super early, tried to ask for a later but was told they could not accommodate, other than it’s a great cabin to stay in and checked most of the boxes

Birthday Celebration

To celebrate my 2 and Fiftieth birthday, I wanted a long weekend away with my adult children and extended family and it was perfect in every way. The layout of the house is perfect, it was spotless (even under the beds when playing indoor hide and seek), and Vacasa was responsive and helpful with any questions.The beds were all comfortable, the heating system kept us all warm and toasty, the hot tub was clean and the perfect temperature. The downstairs family room was a perfect place to lounge and play games at the big table. Great memories and would 100% come back!

Nice setup, but furnishings and amenities need TLC

The layout of the house worked great for our family. Hot tub and proximity to the river are a plus. However, we found the furnishings, fixtures, bedding, and kitchen equipment to be in generally "rough" condition. Not what I was hoping for based on how charming things looked in the pictures.

Quiet neighborhood. Nice setting. Short walk to river. Did not like a few things such as urine smell on the carpet, master bedroom toilet flapper leaking, master bed room door not lock not catching to lock, and broken deck chairs. Overall a good vacation.

Relaxing adult getaway

Gorgeous location is mostly private, possibly visible by only one neighbor. The hot tub works great, but a shelter/gazebo around the hot tub would have been nice. The utilization of space was good in the house. One of the bedrooms upstairs is a loft that overlooks the living room below. People in that loft bedroom will hear activity below until everyone else has gone to bed, too. Very spacious parking can easily accommodate larger vehicles. Overall, we would definitely recommend this property. Very clean, very nice to spend a relaxing weekend in.

A wonderful place to get away

We stayed at Stones Throw for 3 nights. Our group consisted of 5 adults and one teen, and there was plenty of space for all of us. We all felt at home and were all very comfortable. The house is located on a quiet road just off of Hwy 26. There were plenty of beautiful hiking places nearby as well as stores for any last minute supplies we missed. The kitchen had everything we needed to make family meals, and towels and soap were provided in each bathroom. We really loved reading through all the entries in the guestbook, and everyone was very happy. There were tons of games and DVDs to watch. However, I will say we will miss the hot tub the most. We will most definitely be back! Thanks for having us!

Mixed feelings overall

Generally this place was decent. The location is OK; it's fairly tucked away, but literally right off of 26, which means you can hear traffic from your deck. I didn't love that. You can also hear the river, though, which is just a five minute walk away. That was a nice bonus. There are also a couple of decent restaurants nearby, and a grocery store as well. The house is on a gravel road which gets a surprising amount of traffic, so you'll get dust flying up while you're out enjoying the front deck at times. The hot tub is great, and soaking in the tub surrounded by trees is a nice treat. That really made up for a lot of what we didn't like. The house itself is a little rough. The furniture is hilariously uncomfortable. The showers are tiny and really uncomfortable to use. The stairs are terrible - they're very steep with small steps and VERY plush carpet. Walk very carefully to make sure you don't fall down the stairs (like I did). Overall our stay was OK, but I would probably try to find something a little more comfortable if I had a do-over.

We loved the location, and the decks and hot tub. The upstairs bedroom on the back side of the house with the bonus living room was great for hanging with our young kids early in the morning without waking the whole house.
