Great Stay - Very Awesome Ranch
Thank you for making my Birthday Weekend a great one. This is a very cozy location, you don't close access to the river for fishing but the view is wonderful and the sound the water flowing can heard from the front door step. Very relaxing setup, there is not a TV in the master but to be honest we stayed busy enough with the hiking at Tanyard Creek and Woka Park. Camp fire is a nice touch, we used the large kitchen more than the grill provided.

Peaceful trip for 8
The property is absolutely beautiful and so very peaceful! Pros: beds are very comfortable, the house is spacious, the scenery is gorgeous, the fire pit area was perfect at nighttime, and the communication between Cohova was top notch! They answered every question I had expeditiously, even on the weekends. Cons: there is no “river access” on the property. However, you have public access just down the road next to the neighboring house. We found this out after floating the river. The weeds were a little bit of an issue but didn’t make/break our trip. Overall it was an amazing trip and we would 100% book again and recommend to anyone wanting a peaceful trip!

Know what you’re getting!
Beautiful house but totally remote with treacherous roads for ingress and egress. No River access from property. If you want seclusion with nothing to do this is your place. Just bring everything you need and get there in daylight!! Also if you’re planning on grilling be advised that the charcoal grill is on its last leg. Property management company has been advised of this and the overgrown weeds. There is river access through Highwater Ranch below this property for a fee.

Beautiful Setting, No River Access
If you are looking for a remote getaway, this is the property for you. It's a beautiful, clean home with everything you need to prepare meals. The view of the river is lovely and we saw deer, rabbits, and even a bald eagle. However, be aware that the last 20 minutes of the drive is on gravel roads. The only disappointment was that there was no river access, so we had to leave the property each day and drive 30-40 minutes to a public access location. We had hoped to swim and fish at the property but could not do so.

Perfect to get away and relax!
Wife and I brought two of our kids (well…20 and 14 years old) up to get away for a few days and relax right after Christmas. We all like the outdoors and seclusion but also don’t want to drive forever to grab essentials. This was just what we needed. We were here two days and three nights. We did three meals in town and the rest at the house. Then went twice for hikes at Natural Falls State Park, which is also very close. Cabin was clean and accommodating. Everything worked fine. Property is nice, with deer roaming at dusk and in the morning. We enjoyed time around the kitchen table, in the living room, and outside around the fire!

Get away
The home and property are beautiful. It was a relaxing stay. One thing I loved was the baby bassinet and bouncer. They were a great surprise. There were so many positives. The host was very responsive and helpful. Thank you! There were two draw backs. There is no TV in the master bedroom. The other is the last 5 miles (15 minutes) of our journey was on gravel and dirt roads.
