Cozy Little Cabin
We absolutely enjoyed the peace and tranquility of this little cabin out and away from Selfoss! The stove was so nice to keep stoked with a fire for warmth. Johanna and her sisters were very friendly and provided great instructions. We will miss the place!

Fantastic home and location
We wish we had planned more time to simply relax and enjoy this beautiful home. We loved the wood burning stove. While we did not use the hot tub, we surely would have if we weren't out exploring the whole time. We had everything we needed. The hosts were very helpful with information prior to our stay, and check in and check out were seamless. We would easily stay here again!

3 nights in Iceland
We got to Iceland in the evening. It was a relative easy drive from the airport considering driving in the dark. The directions provided are spot on. Location is perfect to explore Gulfoss waterfall, the Geysir and Hotsprings all in one day. Sellfoss is 20 minutes drive and offers variety of dinner options. The cabin was everything we could have wished for. Detailed decorations make it very cozy. The fire place inside is a great feature, and there is plenty of firewood provided. We loved to sit in the hot tub while it was snowing. Great cabin in a great location. We would definitely stay again!

Incredible cabin
What an absolute pleasure it was to stay at this cabin. The view, the location, and the feeling were perfect. The sisters were quick to respond to any questions and could not have been any more gracious as hosts. This is a place I would come back to without question.

Inspirational Iceland
The cabin is within easy driving distance to as many Golden Circle attractions as you want to experience. Very cozy accommodation, filled with the aura of family love, complete with all your essential needs for cooking. We loved our short stay here & would like to extend it next time if we are fortunate enough to return again to Iceland.

Two sisters who booked two years in advance
We couldn’t have been more enamored of the cozy private cabin on the Hvita River. The view was beyond words and we spent most evenings grilling out and taking in the views and bird life after long days exploring Iceland. David my brother in law painted a watercolor of the river and gorgeous vegetation as a token of appreciation to Johanna, Sessie, and Fannie for allowing us to pretend for a moment that we inhabited this magical place. The only thing we found perplexing was how to use and adjust the rain shower heads in the bathroom but we managed and the large sink in the bathroom made hair washing easy. Perhaps some instructions for future guests would be warranted. Other than that we found everything we needed for cooking, grilling and hot tubbing. And the icing on the cake was the chance to see and get up close to an active volcano. We feel so lucky to have found your lovely cabin. Thank you!
