Two bedrooms — a downstairs queen bedroom and an upstairs loft with two full beds overlooking the river

One full bathroom

This is our third summer at the tiny home, and we absolutely love it. We spend all day by the river, cooking out, making s'mores, swinging, and enjoying the beautiful outdoors on the property. The location is perfect, as it's very close to town. The house is ideal for our family of four.

My family of 5 had a fantastic time. It is the PERFECT spot on the river for wading around AND we walked over to a spot that was deep enough to launch our paddle boards out. The amenities are clearly well thought out- from face masks and coffee to inflatables and a wagon to tote everything up and down the hill.
Core memories unlocked! 💕

Clean and Comfortable Home in Great Location

This is a beautiful property in a great location on the river. The home was comfortable and was absolutely spotless. It had everything we needed for our stay. It was the perfect location for our stay to fly fish. It was peaceful and the neighbors were kind and respectful. We would definitely stay here again!

By far the best place we’ve stayed on the river!

We have been coming to the river with a group of friends for over 12 years. We used to rent camp but as we’ve gotten older we find that we much more enjoy the cabin life and all of the comforts it provides. This tiny home cabin was just perfect for the 6 of us and literally had every single thing we could’ve dreamed of. The location on the water is fantastic and if you want to float, Gypsy River is right next door to rent tubes from. We enjoyed our stay so much that we decided not to check out and stay an extra day just because we could! Communication with the owner was top notch. I will definitely be referring this one to our friends and family and it will now become our new “river home” for our annual float trips!

Wonderful location and adorable house!

The house is absolutely adorable and just as pictures show. The location on the river is the absolute best. Perfect to just walk down and sit in the river and relax. Only issue we had was a strong sulphur smell to the water in the house which was not the best for kids to overlook the smell to shower but that was the only thing to even improve if possible. The positioning on the property also has another house on the river. A little awkward at first with the tenants of that house thinking we were trespassing but we cleared that up ;) there is plenty of bank space and seating for both house guests. Worth the stay for sure. Would easily stay again.

Perfect location, lovely house.

We had a great time at the house and property, I wished we had booked just one more day! We stayed 2 nights, my husband and I, my sister and brother-in-law. The house was very nice and very clean, we had everything we needed. No complaints at all. The river is right there, just a short walk down. There is plenty of shade. We sat with our chairs in the water, then took the tubes out and floated a bit. We bbq'd one night and made a fire in the firepit on both nights and sat around listening to music, had drinks. We went to a tubing service company and floated for 2-3 hours, loved that. The beds were comfy. I let my sister take the bedroom and my husband and I took the loft, the loft has low ceilings but It's mainly to sleep or lay in bed. We liked it, slept very well. I would definitely recommend this rental, the house, property and river access was perfect! I seriously cannot think of one negative thing. We never had to contact the owners other than to say we arrived and when we left. Thank you to the owners!

This was the perfect little house for myself and 3 girlfriends. The house was stocked with everything we needed. The views were amazing. We loved having access to the river and were able to hangout there after we floated the river during the day. I can't wait to bring my family soon. Communication was great with the owners as well.

We were a little nervous renting a tiny house with our 3 teenage boys (19, 17, 15) but there was no need to worry! The house is small but is laid out so well, we never felt cramped or crowded. And the access to the river was unmatched! We would most definitely come back. We loved it!!
