Thrilled

The property exceeded our expectations, the location was excellent for our hopes for this short trip, the views of the river, sunrises, sunsets, and birds were spectacular. The State Park is literally in walking distance and St. Mary's is a short and pleasant drive away. The dining in St. Mary's is very nice. We are birders and identified 46 species of birds from the cottage itself and many more in the park. Just a lovely place to leave some of this crazy world behind for a bit!.

Great place to stay.

We had a very enjoyable stay at Sabina's Cottage. The kitchen and entire cottage were very well equipped and supplied. The living and dining area was very comfortable as were the bedrooms. The view of Crooked River was wonderful and we enjoyed spending time in the back yard. Crooked River State Park is an easy walk away and a great place to visit. The cottage is close to shopping and dining. If we visit St. Marys again, we would certainly want to stay there.

Amazing stay, wildlife, great location and accommodations

We loved our stay here. We appreciated the special welcome gift...it meant a lot to have this keepsake. Loved the osprey cam for good views even at night. We saw more bald eagles than osprey! The cranes and egrets love this place, and were never far away. We loved the proximity to the state park. Everything about the accommodations was good for us, very comfortable, plenty of spaces to spread out and relax. The screen porch was a very comfy place to relax outside, even in bad weather. Would stay here again without hesitation! Actually hoping to make it back.
