Reviews
We'll be back!
5/5 We had an amazing weekend at the cottage and can't wait to return!
There isn't great cell service in the area, so I would recommend downloading the map/directions to your phone before getting on the road. The house is comfortable and well-equipped. The front yard is fenced for the dogs and water bowls and poop bags were provided. The river was a short walk down the road with plenty of firewood to gather along the way. Matches and lighter fluid were also provided. We used our phones for light, but you may want to bring flashlights or lanterns if you plan to have a fire along the river at night, which I would absolutely recommend - the stars and fireflies were breathtaking! Unfortunately, we didn't have a chance to take the kayaks (stored at the river) or toy shed for a spin.
Brandy, our house contact, and everyone we met in the area were very friendly and helpful. We floated the river between Routes 663 & 664 which took about 5.5 hours. We were able to make friends with a local who let us park our truck at their house for the float, but parking otherwise can be tricky - check carefully for signs and be careful not to block any gates! Along that stretch of the river was a rope swing, a beachy area to stop for a picnic and class 2 rapids (suitable for adventurous kids with lifejackets), as well as very friendly campers with good whiskey!
We will definitely be back, and for longer next time!
