RiverCottage-selfcontained

The area was very nice, right in the middle of Marysville by the river and it was really easy to find the house and park the car. The cabin is also very private with a lovely view from the little balcony. The bed was also very comfortable. We had everything we needed and enjoyed our stay.

A few small things could have improved our stay. The lighting in the main room is really dimmsy. Just a couple of hooks at the doors would have allowed us to hang up our outdoor jackets - something that I complain about in many rental properties. Such an easy thing to do. The light above the stove did not work, and the television had a very limited set of channels when we arrived - it got better the next day for some reason. One of my other major bugbears in many rental properties including this one is that we were not given a smaller towel per person for our faces just a teeny weeny towel for the hands. I really don't like drying my face with a towel that I have used for my private parts. Another often encountered issue is that the Teflon pots were deteriorated which is not good for your health as they release forever chemicals. Steel pots are a much better option and last longer. A WiFi would have been nice, but is not so important. As I said, these are small things, but they make the difference between excellent and exceptional.

Location, peacefulness, nature walks / trails, parks, lookouts

Bugs annoyed my kids a fair bit, but that comes with being close to nature!

Everything we needed in a beautiful location.
