Cabin Cove on the river

*Please note: While we do accept pets we ask that you have no more than 1 large dog or two small dogs without pre-approval. There is a $50 pet fee that will be added after you confirm your reservation.
Take a step back in time when you enter our little log cabin by the river. Built in 1949, this cabin is a replica of the log cabins built by the gold seekers of Alaska. Though modern in most aspects we have retained the native charm of unfinished wood, rough, hand-hewn logs and naked beams. The inspiration for the cabin was found by my great grandfather who spent time in Alaska working on the Alcan highway. You will find evidence of its Canadian heritage throughout the cabin.
The cabin sits up on a gently sloping cliff and offers excellent views of the river. Enjoy a glass of wine on the dock and relax as you watch the sun set.
We love hosting and enjoy sharing the peace and serenity of this beautiful place. If you need anything at all, don’t hesitate to reach out!

We love this cabin
This was our second stay at Cabin Cove. We keep coming back because we love the quaint and comfortable cabin, the lovely and quiet setting along the river, and proximity to family and our favorite places in Iowa Falls. We will return.

Wonderful, quaint cabin
Loved the wildlife, flowers, quilts, Tiffany-style lamps. Provides everything you could need. Wonderful experience! The only negative thing I can think of is there is definitely a damp smell as you walk in the door. However, it still may be my new favorite place.
