The Fishin' Hole In Valley Of The Pines Red River

Lovely property with beautiful views, close enough to hear the river running. Very peaceful!

loved the location , back porch was where we spent our time . House had everything you need. Tv is very limited. We plan on a return trip, granddaughter loved being able to play in river all day, and then to have the great loft space, it has a sitting area, she loved having her own space.

What a wonderful cabin and the property was spectacular! We spent 2 weeks there and couldn’t be happier. We will miss the walks and sound of the river right outside the back door. We hope to be back some day.

Great location just a few minutes outside of town. The river behind the house, the back porch, and the fire pit was so relaxing. The house had everything we needed and plenty of space! A great variety of games kept the teens and adults occupied.

We enjoyed our stay at the Fishin' Hole. We had plenty of room for our group and the loft was perfect for the kids. The downstairs bedrooms were a nice size and had plenty of closet space. The loft had 3 beds and was perfect for nap time for the kids ,when the adults wanted to chat downstairs. It was easy to get to and Red River was just a 6 minute drive. The house is located in a very pretty area and still had snow for the kids to play in. The river behind the house was so relaxing while you sat on the huge porch or around the fire pit! There was a gas fire pit and a traditional fire pit!! The grill at the house was awesome. There is no central air or heat, but once the heater gets going it warms the house wonderfully. The loft was always nice and warm for the kids. Heat really does rise. The host had heaters in each bedroom too, we only used ours one night because the main heater worked great. Having a fireplace was really nice too, had a fire every night of our stay. The kitchen was stocked nicely with essentials. The washer and dryer definitely came in handy, especially with little ones. The host Spence was very quick to respond to any of our questions. We would definitely stay at the Fishin' hole again.

Location is absolutely beautiful.

Cabin was great. Really enjoyed the stream. It was far enough away from town to feel isolated but close enough to run to town.

Host was welcoming and responsive. Cabin and amenities were as described.

Everything was great, ran low on fire wood no big deal , besides that great stay I liked the cabin next to the river.

Cabin had mostly all pros and just a few cons. Beds were cozy, living area had plenty of cozy seating, back deck is closer to river than photos showed which was a plus. The cabin overall was clean, well appointed and very comfortable. The only thing that would have made it better would be to have a powder room in 2nd floor and also to have the fire pit in the back yard by the river. But would definitely stay here again. The cabin is also along a low traffic road which made morning walks very enjoyable. Very nice place to vacation!

The property was fantastic just a beautiful setting and very clean.

Love staying at the cabin. So lovely.

The Fishin’ Hole actually exceeded our expectations. We had searched for a cabin on the river several times, and had actually decided on another cabin in the Upper Valley when I found the listing for The Fishin’ Hole. After giving it lots of thought and reading reviews, we rolled the dice and booked Spence and Debbie’s cabin on the river. We have NO regrets! Check-in was a simple keypad code. The kitchen, den, and dining room provided everything we needed. Modern washer, dryer and supplies were tucked away in a hallway alcove. All the small appliances and utensils we needed for our meals were provided. The bedrooms and two bathrooms were neat and clean and linens looked and smelled fresh. While many comparable cabins offer those things, it is the large back deck, shady backyard, 30’ proximity to the river, and the sound of the water flowing over the rocks that sets it apart from other rentals. We had hoped for a serene setting where we could enjoy being outdoors, and The Fishin’ Hole checked off 10 of 10! Although we normally like to try different places, this cabin will be on our list of places to go in 2026 as well!

Great place for the whole family!

This property was wonderful! The host is so helpful and friendly! The backyard is right next to the water. Highly recommend!

Absolutely wonderful! We brought our 10 year old grandson and he thought it was magnificent! We loved the cabin, the river, the quiet lication, the beauty of the scenery. It was everythkng a mountain cabin experience should be!

Great property in a pristine location. Couldn't ask for more.

We had a blast :)

This was a quick weekend getaway with my husband, our dogs and my sister in-law and her husband. We loved the location and the river at the back porch. This location was on the outskirts of town and was perfect for our weekend get away. It was away from the busyness and we could walk our dogs in the neighborhood. The house was clean. The owners were always quick to get back with me when I had a question. We would love to stay here again when we come back.

We loved our time at the Fishing Hole! It's the perfect location and we loved being right on the river. We spent most of our time outside; but inside was clean, cozy and had everything we needed for our family. We will definitely be back!

And loved the cabin. Beautiful setting right on the river.

You could not ask for anything more, this is a fabulous place. Beautiful scenery and the river right behind you. We enjoyed it all!

We had a wonderful time at cabin and enjoyed redrive t0wn

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Everything was just as advertised and we were very pleased with the cabin and its amenities. The owners have obviously put a lot of work into making the property cozy and quaint. The small river peacefully running directly behind the house offered just about the only sound in this beautiful location in the Valley of the Pines. We would love to return to The Fishin’ Hole and would recommend it to others!

Perfect setting nuzzled in the pines. The relaxing sound of the river running through the back was so peaceful. Quick drive into town for all the activities and restaurants yet allowed us the solitude and quiet get away we were wanting. Picturesque! Cozy, comfy and everything you need! This is exactly how I pictured enjoying this mountain town!

Lots of room, great view from back porch.

Outstanding views

We absolutely loved our stay. It was very cozy and just like it advertised. We felt like at home in a winter wonderland. The cabin had everything we needed. It was in a perfect location. I will come again!

This cabin was more than what we needed the river behind the cabin gave us a peaceful feeling. Great views to wake up to in the morning! The cabin stayed warm! Lots of towels for my family! The washer and dryer was definitely a plus!

The cabin was perfect for our family. View from the master bedroom was phenomenal as you could look out and see the river flowing! We even got to see the first snow of the season! My grandson’s first time to see snow!! He was so excited! My English Bulldogs thought the river was a swimming pool and decided to jump in!😅 We also enjoyed the outdoor fire pit for some yummy roasted marshmallows. Kitchen was equipped with everything you need. Spence was extremely attentive to our needs! Highly recommend this cabin. Hated to leave but hope to be back one day!

This cabin was perfect for our family of 8! It is just outside of town and was so peaceful and quiet! The owner was very responsive and nice and answered any questions we had! We will definitely stay here again.

My wife and I have been going to Red River in September every year since 2018. The first place we stayed was the Fishing Hole, and we loved it. The location on the river is outstanding. We went there for 2 years, but the next year when we tried to book it, it was already booked. We looked around and another place in the Volley of the Pines, and it was very nice as well. We started going back to the new place, but ther were always problems with cleanliness that we never had at the Fish Hole, so this year we decided to go back there. When we got there and looked around, we were pleasantly surprised to see that a lot of upgrades had been made since our last visit. If there was one negative on our previous visits it was that the back porch was getting a little rundown, and that’s where we like to spend a lot of our time. The back porch has been completely rebuilt, and it is now first class. Inside we saw that the furniture in the main room was all new. There are 2 very comfortable sofas. One of them, has a recliner on each end. That was great! We’ve been stay in vacation rentals for over 30 years, and we’ve rarely found one with a chair anywhere near as comfortable as our recliners at home. This was it. Also noticed a new stove, new washer and dryer, and I believe the bed we slept in was new since we were here last. It was very comfortable. It’s clear the owners have put some money into this place too make a nice place even better. We plan to come back.

Nice smaller cabin with 2 bedrooms with doors and one upstairs loft type place needs a update with electrical outlets and switch’s some outlets don’t hold in cords some switch’s don’t work can in bathroom doesn’t work all was a good stay only real issue is the floors creek, not so cool in the early morning otherwise was a fun stay

We took our three elementary aged grandkids for 24 hours to the Fishin’ Hole. We were all content to just stay right in that perfect back yard and explore and skip rocks and wade in the stream. Or we could picnic on the table by the stream. Or sit and watch the kids while swinging on the porch swing. There was a perfect set-up for an outdoor fire and s’Mores in the evening. Played games from their plentiful supply. The kitchen was well-stocked and there was plenty of room for everyone. It was a beautiful setting for a mountain get away!

Great cabin, lovely setting right on the river. Great place to relax which is just what we needed!! Will definitely return!!

We have stayed in the upper valley outside of Red River for years. It’s hard to find good vacation rentals actually on the river. We were pleasantly surprised that the cabin is on the river. We loved the large back porch. Even though there were other rentals in the area, it was very quiet.

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin! It's right on the river and very cozy. It's a few miles outside of town, but an easy drive on the UTV!

This cabin is the perfect location. It feels secluded and out of the hustle and bustle so that you can truly relax… close enough to Red River to zoom in and out. We stayed here in August…. So snow on the roads wasn’t a factor. The river out back is so soothing. Our 3 adult sized children had plenty of room and were not piled on top of each other. Thank you, to the hosts for making their cabin available!
