New in 2023 - access to the Lincoln river by way of a woodchip defined path through the woods! It is approximately 200 steps to a small footbridge over a spring fed creek, then an additional 200 steps to a boardwalk with a floating dock on the Lincoln river. There are 4 kayaks on a stand by the river access. By making land management and accessibility to the natural beauty of the property a priority, our guests are now able to enjoy nature in a unique way. The land provides a serene setting for kayaking, bird watching and often catching a glimpse of a white-tailed deer!

weekend getaway

Very nice property, very clean. We had all the amenities we needed to cook with and to enjoy ourselves. The weather wasn't great, but we did walk out on the trail to the lake. We hope to take kayaks out if we have a chance to return.

Another amazing stay!

River Dream Cottage has been my yearly place to stay for several years now. I always look forward to the week I am there and love everything about it. Despite a little rain this week I was able to get outside everyday and it’s such a cozy place to come back to and watch movies, read, have a fire or just relax. The trail to the river is so amazing and such gorgeous views complete with kayaks. It’s so hard to pack up and leave. It holds a special place in my heart!

Cabin in the woods

Had a great stay at this little cabin. Very clean, nice amenities. Cabin is shaded for most of the day, keeping the house nice and cool during the day. Highly recommend and would rent again in a heartbeat.
