    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was one of the most relaxing vacations ever. The sound of the rapids removed all the stress, better than a massage. The only reason the location did not get a 5 is the fact there is a cabin right next door and the privacy fence only goes so far and there is very limited privacy when you are in the fenced yard.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Cabin snob here—and I don’t say this lightly—this place is a gem.This mountain cabin sits right on the river, and the setting alone is worth the trip. The property is incredibly well kept, clean, and thoughtfully maintained. Inside, the layout is just right: three comfortable bedrooms, two baths, and a bright, open kitchen, dining, and living area anchored by a beautiful gas log fireplace that makes the space feel cozy and inviting.One of my favorite features is the screened porch overlooking the river—peaceful, private, and perfect for morning coffee or winding down in the evening. Outside, the riverfront setup is just as impressive. The firepit is literally right by the water, surrounded by a solid concrete and rock patio with chairs that make it easy to relax and enjoy the view. The hot tub is also perfectly placed for both convenience and scenery.Everything in the cabin worked exactly as it should, which is always a huge plus. We brought our three girls—Bella, Nala, and Molly (2 labs and a Golden) —and they absolutely loved exploring the property.The drive in is a bit long and winding, but honestly, that’s part of what makes this place so special—and it is 100% worth it.My husband and I travel often, and very few properties truly stand out to me the way this one did. We will absolutely be back. Paul & Mandy Edwards

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin is easily accessible with 2 wheel drive. The views are fantastic and match the pictures. The yard is large and well fenced for the three dogs we brought along. It is well laid out for pet owners. The gas grill was clean and ready to use. For me, I wish the couches sat higher up. It was hard on my knees. The kitchen is small if you are a cook, but you can make it work. Very relaxing and I would stay again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My wife and I have been loyal annual and at time semi-annual customers of Sliding Rock for a number of years. We keep coming back because of the quality of their managed properties and their service. In doing so, we often move around. This summer we elected the river and Water's Edge. Were I asked to describe this particular property I would have to choose EXCEPTIONAL, SUPERIOR, AWESOME, though none alone would give it proper credit. The house is clean, spacious, well-stocked, very comfortable with like new, quality appliances. Recent renovations were the icing on the cake. And the locale - on the river adjacent to some beautiful, relaxing rapids. Being at the very end of the road, there was zero traffic and even with other nearby cabins, privacy was not an issue. Will we return? YES!!! I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a top-tier getaway.

I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I'm not one to ever fill out reviews, but I definitely wanted to make mention of the kitchen pots and utensils. I know it is the prior tenant's responsibility to clean all used dishes and put away prior to leaving. I was shocked at the amount of dirty pots and utensils with hardened food on them. The strainer still had hardened noodles on it, food burnt to surfaces and good hardened on multiple forks/spoons. I have never in 10 years run across a cabin with dirty dishes of this magnitude. I highly recommend the cleaning staff check the dishes/silverware at least periodically so this doesn't happen to someone else. I cleaned all the dishes that we used but there's definitely dirty dishes still remaining in the island for sure. We've been waiting to return to this exact cabin 9 years later, as our first trip here was when our daughter was 10 months old and took her first steps! We absolutely love the pet friendly screened in back porch and attached fenced yard. Little dogs can get under the fence by the water, but otherwise we had zero issues. This cabin is the epitome of a perfect get away and relaxation by the river! The only other thing I would mention is the immediate driveway leading to the cabin needs some small tree service work and limbs cut. The limbs were rubbing on my truck (I understand this would not bother cars) and the downed tree at the water has tons of regrowth that makes it harder to see and get in the water. Definitely looks different than pictured and could use a trim on the lower parts, especially for those who love to enjoy the water and get in it. We look forward to coming back in the near future!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our second time renting Water's Edge. The experience from renting through our stay was phenomenal. The staff answered all my questions and addressed all my concerns, as small as they were, with promptness and kindness. The home is stunning. It was clean and well maintained. We love that they are so pet friendly. We enjoyed our three Pomeranians without being worried. The fenced backyard is such a bonus. We cannot say enough about the ambiance and view. We will make this an annual trip!!! We have encouraged friends and family to seek out this property.

There are neighbors but the fenced in yard and cabin almost turn away from them so you still feel secluded. Very clean. Stocked kitchen. The drive was easy, but have some mountain driving skills as the road can be popular. Outdoor seating on the deck wasn't the most comfortable. Bring wood for the outdoor firepit, you won't regret it.

    The river and view are incredible! Not a dealbreaker but the kitchen and third bedroom are tiny. It wasn’t a problem for us since we had a total of four people but if you have more, it would be quite “cozy”. Overall, it was a very enjoyable stay.
