Great place to relax!! Accommodations for 2 are perfect! Lack of privacy inside would make it challenging for more adults, but looks great for kids. From the main road, the area surrounding the cabin was very icy! Be prepared to park at the kiosk along Bumping River Road. Looking forward to coming back again in the summer! Remember to bring an axe to chop firewood!

Super cozy cabin. Was nice to have our dog with us.
We plan to come back again.
Thank you for the pleasant stay.

This well worn cabin is in a beautiful setting with the river right outside. And, the area has a multitude of other rivers to fish and trails to hike. If you want to eat out, you can do so only a few miles down the road. Very nice time.

We love the cabin and setting, but the outhouse is near overflowing. It makes coming back unlikely. I have stayed several times before but two times in a row of a full outhouse is discusting.
