We loved how the cabin was close to the river. We read our books, enjoyed the porch swing and put our toes in the river water. It was a relaxing stay!

This cute little cabin was extremely clean, and cozy. However, if you have a 6’4 husband like mine the bathroom shower entrance is a little small, but totally okay. Just maybe worth mentioning to future tall guests, doorways are slightly shorter than average. But definitely not a deal breaker. The river out the front door was the absolute topper.

Great Atmosphere and comfort

My cabin was about two feet from the roaring Big Thompson river. That was so cool. Can't imagine if the river was higher. Crazy. At first you think, wow that river is loud, but it lulls you to sleep right away. Everything was comfortable, maybe a little worn, but it was great. A bit expensive too. But the porch swing on the river was really nice.

Good But Not Perfect

Overall it was a wonderful location and the cabin was comfortable. The biggest complaint is that it was advertised as having cable in the room and wifi available, but the cable was not working and the wifi was so poor that it was essentially non-functional. I wouldn’t have minded if it was advertised that way, but we booked and made plans assuming there would be functional cable and internet. I tried calling the number given but there was no answer. It wasn’t an emergency so it wasn’t something worth pursuing but it was an annoyance.
