I would love to go back!!
We loved the cabin, it was clean and well kept. Google maps led us astray, but I called the owner and she got us right there. I loved the location, but wish it wasn’t such a long gravel road to get there. I’ll still go back anyway!

Unplugged and unbothered
The cabin was a great escape from the hustle and bustle of the city life and we had a great time. Jeff’s canoe rental does put in at the gravel bar at the end of the road so you may encounter sever school buses on that road if they are coming or going, and that can be difficult trying to pass. One thing to clarify: some reviews mention “private river access” even though the listing itself does not. This is NOT PRIVATE. You should NOT expect to go to the river and not see anyone else drive down to the gravel bar and set up. You may get lucky and not encounter anyone else except those floating on the river, but certainly don’t count on it!

Great, secluded spot
We had a lovely time at the cabin! We stayed for the total eclipse and enjoyed a quiet private viewing in the woods! Our two little dogs were very happy at the property. The road leading down is a little bit rough, but that is the last 3 mile leg of the journey. You can hike up a nearby hill for cell reception if you need to connect, but the best part of this cabin was unplugging and relaxing. The short walk down the road leads to the large gravel riverbank. Fun for fossil hunting, skipping rocks, and fishing! Thank you for your hospitality!

Fall family getaway
Our family had an awesome stay here! Super cozy cabin. The location is remote - down a long gravel road - we drove the truck, but I think a mini van could have made it just fine. The cabin is very close to the Black River with beautiful beach access. We would definitely come back again! My only complaint is that the light fixtures and fans were very dirty with lots of spiderwebs. Wonderful cabin, but could use a deeper cleaning.

Unplugged Family Time
We celebrated my son’s 14th birthday with a weekend stay in the cabin and kayak trip from Jeff’s Canoe Rental. It was perfect!! Cabin had everything we needed including firewood. We fished, saw wildlife (buck whitetail crossed the river), lots card games, ate well, roasted hotdogs/marshmallows over the fire, and talked to each other lots! Very comfy beds. Very welcoming decor. Kitchen even had crock pot for a meal to cook while we floated. Highly recommend. My husband already asked when we were going again. Much easier than camping!

Annual Float
Would highly recommend this cabin. Hosts were great to deal with, great communication and she thought of everything. Cabin very well stocked. Even had firewood for us. Very cute cabin, and clean. The wrap around covered front porch was awesome since we did have some rain while there. Porch is a lot bigger than it looks in the picture. Having our own private gravel bar was great to hang out. Very short drive down the from the driveway to gravel bar. If you are looking for a secluded cabin, this is it. You are definitely secluded and are off the grid while you are there. Limited cell service, if any depending. There is absolutely no one around, super secluded. Helpful Tip: May want to have everything you need before arriving, as it is not a quick jaunt to the nearest store. Cabin is at the end of a very long gravel road out. We all loved the cabin and would highly recommend and we will be using in the future.

Enjoyed our stay. Nice secluded location. Cabin and river access was outstanding. Fishing, swimming, tubing, sitting on the front porch watching and listening to the rain on the tin rooftop was just what we needed.

Just what we needed!
We needed a reset from everyday life. The cabin was beautiful the porch is amazing! We enjoyed the river it’s one of my favorite rivers. It’s crystal clear and we love trying to find amazing rocks and arrow heads. Heather the owner has the house stocked with things you need. It’s best to travel to Ellington for groceries as there is only a dollar general in Annapolis. If you can float or canoe the river it’s a great experience! We truly enjoyed our stay and hope to be back!

Perfect Getaway
My husband, I and 4 teenagers stayed at the cabin. Though the thought of NO Wi-Fi was mind boggling for them initially, we all had the most amazing time. We went to the river, played board games, puzzles. We grilled, used the fire pit w/provided wood. We enjoyed the open yard, they played baseball, football, hung out in the hammock, and just reconnected and enjoyed good company. I don’t think the kids even missed not having cell service. The property is very secluded, but perfect for relaxing, disconnecting from the hustle and bustle of daily life and reconnecting with family. The cabin was clean and well stocked! Air conditioning was ice cold, perfect for escaping the summer heat when needed. Though one bathroom, the hot water never ran out allowing us nice hot showers after long days in the river and sun. We even enjoyed a thunderstorm, the rain on the tin roof was relaxing and so soothing. Heather was very responsive and even helped us figure the weather out to help plan our float trip around incoming rain. I Highly recommend stopping in Ellington or another nearby town and get ice, milk, groceries or whatever is needed before hand. We thought we may be able to run to the store “real quick” initially… nope! A break from people is what we asked for, and that’s what we got! The road to the house is a drive, but it is picturesque and the scenery is beautiful. We had a minivan and was able to drive the road with no problems. 10/10 recommend and would return!

Our own Walden Pond Experience
If you have ever wanted to escape it all and escape the outside world, with it’s distractions and noise… this is your place. There is no television, no Wi-Fi, nothing but old fashioned, Norman Rockwell goodness. ( Ok… there are modern conveniences like a microwave and coffee maker with varied k-cups, but you know what I mean.) Our family quickly fell into a soothing routine of cooking, talking, sitting on the porch, making s’mores at the campfire, sitting under the stars, playing board games, and swimming at the private river access. It was a welcome pause in time and I will always remember it. The roads are country roads, so you can’t drive your low riding sports car here, but it’s the country… That’s part of the experience. We loved it and will be back for sure!

Breathtaking River / Cozy Cabin
Heather is the most thoughtful host! There were plenty of towels and high-end toiletries!! The cabin is very clean, and the hammock was so relaxing. The air conditioning was arctic cold to really balance out the warm days. We were on the most beautiful section of the Black River! The lane is long but well maintained and I had no problem in my Subaru. They even had wood ready to go in the fire pit for us. Such a beautiful spot! We met a really nice couple with beautiful German Shepherds and it truly made me wish I had another! Wonderful dogs. This is a very special place and I thank you for sharing it with us.
