Home Away from Home 🏠

I chose this location because it was close to where I grew up and close to family! Traveling home from out of state can be very stressful, but Kim and Marc make everything so easy! We will definitely be staying here again. If you’re looking for a quiet, away from it all, cabin in the woods, this is perfect! Loved our time spent here. Very clean, very safe, lots of amenities. Internet is extremely slow, but it’s in the woods. You should expect to be disconnected while you’re here. The clam river is excellent! 10/10 will stay again!

Awesome cabin in the Woods

We loved staying in this delightful, comfortable, roomy cabin in the woods. It is well equipped with anything you may need from a first aid kit to dishes to kayaks. It is wonderfully peaceful and private in this area with a nice big yard including 2 lovely yard swings (like porch swings). Of course, the river is the big attraction. It was so much fun playing in the current and kayaking upstream a ways, and then back again. We were not experienced kayakers, but we sure had fun.

Peaceful time on the riverbank

It is a spacious rustic cabin off the main road right on the riverbank. The renovation are great with what appears to be more on the agenda. We will look into going back this summer to kayak the river.

Great cabin by the river!

The cabin by the river offered us a quiet place away from crowds. Our grandkids had the whole river to themselves to explore, and we were able to sit back, watch and enjoy! It was everything we were looking for.

Relaxing getaway.

Kim and Marc are very friendly and responsive. The inside of the cabin is even cuter than the photos. River is clean and it is a very quiet spot (when my 7 year old isn’t there) ;) We would definitely rent again.
