Fun outside the cabin
Relaxing in some air conditioning, watching tv, and cooking on a stove are all great. But Cabin on the River offers much more. Get outside, watch the wildlife (we have seen many Eagles over the river), start up a campfire, roast some marshmallows or hot dogs. The activities are endless. Fishing, kayaking, hiking are just some of the things that will be right outside your door.
