Summary: We had a wonderful stay at the cabin. It is well equipped and was very restful to be there. The sound of the river is relaxing and being surrounded by nature is beautiful. The hosts were very helpful and welcoming. The listing shows an area where you can sit by the river but that’s not possible. There’s a small path you can walk to the water’s edge but no place to sit. Even so, there were beautiful wildflowers growing and it’s a great place to stay.
