We had a wonderful trip and truly enjoyed the area. It was exactly the kind of getaway I was hoping for: peaceful, quiet, and a chance to do absolutely nothing. We disconnected from our devices and just enjoyed being surrounded by nature.
The cabin was very clean, the Wi-Fi worked well when needed, and the on-site washer and dryer were very convenient. It was also pet-friendly, which made the stay even better for us. Overall, we were very impressed and would definitely recommend it.
We had such a great time at this cabin, it was beautiful! This was our second time with sliding rock cabins and there will be many more!
We've stayed in many Sliding Rock cabins over 15 years, and this was our first time at this one. The location is lovely, and we appreciate a wood-burning fireplace. Another positive on our list.
We had a great time! The deck to the river was the highlight of our stay. Had so much fun playing swimming, tubing, fishing in the river. Great fit for our family of seniors, kids, adults and dog. The location is fabulous. Every thing was within 30 minutes that we wanted to do. The office was very responsive to any requests. The hot tub was beautiful along side the river and majestic trees
3rd year in a row I have rented with Sliding Rock cabins. Each year, we have tried a new spot, but I think this will be a place to return to!! The cabin is big enough (4 adults, 3 dogs) to not be on top of each other, while also being cozy. The outside space is impressive! The boardwalk to the patio over the water is very well maintained and safe (unless you have a blind dog who tried to fall off the walkway!). Riverside Retreat had all the amenities needed, the grill was super convenient to the kitchen (though the grill grates could stand a replacement). Well stocked kitchen. Do note that the upstairs king "master" is not private- it is in a loft space. Only minor issue to us was that there was only 1 single 2 person hard wood bench in the covered porch. Fortunately, we traveled with some camp chairs, so we set that up on the enclosed deck to hang out outside during the rain. Relaxing, wonderful long weekend! Thanks!
