Cute river cottage!
We stayed two nights at this cottage. Overall, I really liked the cottage. Quiet and quaint, close to several towns. Loved the riverfront location and the big yard/firepit area. Has everything you need for your stay. Just a couple of recommendations (1) you should replace the carpet with some kind of hard surface flooring. The old, dirty, musty carpet does not give a good first impression. It's an easy and inexpensive fix. (2) leave some kind of "departure instructions" in the cottage so we know what we need to do when we leave; like put out the trash, start load of towels in the washer, strip bed, etc. We have no idea what we needed to do upon leaving. Other than that, we did enjoy our stay!

Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The home was very clean and the old fashion decor brought me right back to my childhood and a slower simpler life. Just wonderful!

Peaceful and Relaxing
The property was just as we expected. Everything was clean and comfortable, the setting was wonderful, and communication with the host was great. With the view of nothing but the Platte River and the forest, we really enjoyed our time relaxing and stargazing. We highly recommend this for a nice getaway to unwind and recharge.
