Our stay was very nice. We didn’t however have any kitchen towels or dishcloths or any hand towels for the bathrooms. We were supposed to clean before we left but found no cleaning supplies. I cleaned the best I could with paper towels and hot water.

Bringing Back Family Time
We booked a Labor Day weekend getaway for my family to escape the electronics and enjoy eating dinners together. We are all so busy with our lives that dinners are all spread out. So a fishing weekend away at a cabin sounded great! We are 6 adults and require 4 bedrooms the listing states 4 bedrooms but 1 of the bedrooms is open and you have to walk through it to get to the master bedroom and to get to go up and down from 1st to 2nd floor because the stairs are right in the room, so there is no privacy it needs to be configured differently. There were little ants on the counters and table constantly so we mixed up some dish soap and apple cider vinegar in a cup to draw them to that while we were there. The outside could use regular power washing to eliminate all the bugs and cobwebs all over the windows, house, and decks. The house is quite a bit in on a long narrow dirt road, so it's best to have at least an SUV, especially if it rains as it did when we were there that dirt road became very slick, and no place to go if another vehicle is coming in the opposite direction. The grounds are beautiful, I feel they need to concentrate on the inside now and maybe all the owners can pool together and work on getting the road paved, as I know it had been flooded just before we got there from Hurricane Debby. The host was very nice answered every question I had, and was very polite. Regardless, I would recommend it to anyone who wants to get away and enjoy some peace and quiet!!

We loved it! Just a few discrepancies in the online instructions/fees compared to the ones on the fridge but we are definitely coming back! Would suggest a new sink stopper and some smaller spatulas, but overall well stocked kitchen.

Perfect property and house!
We stayed here for four nights and could not have been more pleased with both the property and the house! The house itself was large yet cozy with extensive decking to enjoy the river view. The many outdoor amenities were fabulous, such as the floating dock, grill, hot tub, fire pit, covered porch right at the water’s edge. We spent plenty of time just enjoying the serenity of the river. The owner was very respectful of our privacy and also responded to any inquiries we had within 5 to 10 minutes. Will definitely return and recommend this location to friends.

Great place to get away
If you're looking for a quiet and remote getaway near Fayetteville, this is perfect! The location is a bit out of the way but that's exactly what we wanted. The view of the river and outdoor amenities including hot tub, Cornhole, fire pit, and horse shoes were all we needed to keep us entertained during our five night stay.

We truly enjoyed our stay me and my husband loved the peace and quiet and i constant communication with the host throughout our stay. It was the perfect way to bring in my birthday . The house was cleaned, smelled good too. The room was heated for us when we got there . Didnt get a chance to use the hot tub or fire pit. But everything was described like posting , i enjoyed laying in the hammock, n sitting in the rocking chairs .We are definitely comming back for Christmas if its available. I recommend this place to anyone looking to spend sometime enjoying nature by the Rivah . 5 stars from us thank u again to the hosts for all you do.

Twice a year outing for friends
This is the coolest place to unwind with your friends or family at a very great price. The location is very close to Elizabethtown by water or vehicles for anything that you may not have packed up for the trip. Fishing is excellent on the Cape Fear river by boat (provided) or off the huge floating dock. The property has everything anyone needs to enjoy the outside furnishing that are provided by the owners. (hot tub, fire pit, Gazebo for cooking, huge shelter for eating/relaxing) We are & will continue to be repeat customers! We have been coming for around 10 years! E Watkins

More information to follow.
Relaxing area. Will update more once rest of family returns from extended trip. Dirt road in was mentioned, however not as expected even though semi warned due to weather it can change. Additional pictures or updates closer to rental time would help to improve readiness for arrival. Dale was very responsive. Cabin is next to the river up the bank. Gazebo is good to hangout and close by fire pit if weather decides to cooperate. Definetely bring heavy duty bug spray as with the moisture they were heavier than expected even with the Off applied and sprayed. Site only allows a certain time period to leave a review which we want to however the site restrictions prohibit that ability to respond once everyone contributes to the experience.
