Loved the privacy. Nice to have a fridge and microwave in room. Unfortunately was raining most of our stay so didn’t get to enjoy the patio. Would love if room included breakfast! Coffee was complimentary.

Cute, but shady area.
Super cute personal cabins. The first one i got had a trail of urine on the floor and then a big spot where a dog had urinated. They moved me. But, that was the first thing i saw. Housekeeping should have noticed that. Next cabin i got was good. It was a nice quiet spot with some not so nice areas around. Guess you should expect that on a river.

Great option near airport
Cute little cabins and very friendly service when checking in. Convenient location to the airport. The overall cottage as well as the beds and bathroom were in good shape but some of the walls were dirty, like someone had wiped muddy fingers on them. Not a deal breaker as I just needed a place to sleep but seems like something housekeeping would notice/care about. Overall, would stay there again.
