Great, cozy cabin, perfectly suited to our low-key Thanksgiving getaway! Very peaceful neighborhood this time of year, enjoyed the river right outside! The cabin, with the wood burning fireplace and other amenities suited our needs perfectly and made for some great memories!

Cool place

Overall a good place to stay, quite and good location. Clean and great outdoor space. Unfortunately the river was high during my stay so i can't attest to the fishing, though it is close by to numerous lakes which were great. Id definitely considered staying here again.

The host was very welcoming and responsive. The place is great for a small family or a few couples. It's a very cozy place that has been well taken care of and has a lot to offer. The back yard view is spectacular and the access to the river is even better. The kitchen is fully stocked if you plan to cook, and the bathroom is updated which is great. The bedrooms are furnished with TV's and ROKU which is a plus and the WIFI works perfectly. The mattresses feel a little springy and heater takes a minute to warm up the place but there's a fireplace if you care to use it along with the heater.This is the perfect place to stay if you're visiting South Fork Area.Overall Rating - Definitely worth staying. I would absolutely book again.Pros:Responsive HostFully Stocked KitchenLocation Space and layout of houseUpdated fixtures Cons:Bedroom mattresses felt a bit springyHeater takes a min. to warm the place up

A little piece of heaven.

This was our 4th visit to the River Cottage. Every year we have come here to get away from the fast pace of the city. The river fishing, hummingbirds feeding and starry nights always do the trick!

Ski trip

We arrived at River Cottage after a multi hour flight delay and a snowy drive from Denver to find a warm and cozy spot, greeted by a beautiful bottle of wine and handwritten note from the hosts. We found everything we needed to enjoy a ski week at Wolf Creek and celebrate a family member’s landmark birthday. Thank you!

Great location but dirty house

The location of this house is phenomenal. Fishing in the river just steps from the back porch was exactly what we were looking for. As for the cleanliness of the property, it was not clean. Dirty toilets and floor, but the most disgusting part was the dirty sheets I got into after after a long day of driving. I reached out to the owner of the property who mentioned they would talk with the lady that cleans the place, but I should have been offered a refund of the cleaning fee as I was not provided a clean house upon arrival. That being said, I would not return to the property again, but did overall enjoy the location and visit with friends.

Amazing Stay!

It was an amazing trip. The house was very well furnished. It had everything we needed. It was very clean and we had no issues. Just steps from the river and we enjoyed fishing and just relaxing in the hammock listening to the river.

Beautiful location, very peacefull! Setting on the deck and listening to the river is very relaxing. My husband especially enjoyed being able to fish in the river. Cabin is nice, very well equipped. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. It was really nice having a washer & dryer. Only disappointments were that the two downstairs beds were not at all comfortable & the person that cleans the cabin doesn't do a very good job. Other than that, we had a wonderful stay

Great location

River cottage was the perfect location for our family vacation to wolf creek. It was just a few miles into town and about 20 minutes or so to wolf creek ski area. We have been to South Fork numerous times, and our stay at the River cottage did not disappoint. The area was beautiful! We saw lots of wildlife from the cabin windows and on our drive into south fork. Would love to come back in the summer!
