Perfect Little Cabin & Spot
My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary and it was absolutely the perfect place! The cabin was equipped with everything you could need and the views were breathtaking. The climb up and down to the river is very steep so you'd need to be able to handle that to access the river from the property. John was great and very helpful. Our dogs also had a great time swimming in the river. It was deep enough in spots for them to swim but shallow enough for us to sit in chairs and enjoy the water. We definitely plan to return again for another visit.

Great place!
Updated listing with a smart tv. Two bedrooms with all the blankets and pillows one would want. Futon was great for the kids. Plenty of chairs for lounging around. Plenty of wood on the property. Lots of movies for the family to choose from.

Perfect Cabin on the River
This was a great spot tucked away with a fabulous view of the river. Got to relax with the family with our own little piece of the river, not many people around. Super quiet and the house had everything we needed.

Amazing
This was our 5th trip to stay at Double Dog Cabins. And we already booked next years stay. I can not say enough about this amazing place. From the accommodations to just the beauty of the property, it is our favorite place to visit. It will not disappoint. This will be a regular place for us to visit forever!!

Absolutely wonderful. Cabin very clean and very well stocked. The bottle of wine was a sweet touch.
It was truly a chance to just be....the sound of the river from the front porch, the view of the stars at night and the fact you are away from technology made this an awesome get away.

Perfect getaway!
This is our second year coming to the "Double Dog Cabins". It's secluded but close enough to town and Garner State Park. The kids love playing in the river and fishing. The house is cozy and has everything you need.
