About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Charming riverside retreat

Historic cabin built in the 1920's. Dr. Fine, the county's only doctor, used the cabin as his fishing getaway. The fishing hole is located at the big bend, just below the fork of the North and Middle Forks of the Smith River.

Nestled among the old growth Douglas Firs, and a quiet beach with private access, this cozy cabin has it all!

In all directions, are views of the pristine Smith River and National Forest. Birds are abundant! We are visited by Osprey, Kingfishers and a resident Bald Eagle. The yard brings songbirds and various bird species that provide hours of fun for birders.

Incredible
Incredible stay; traveling with an infant and a toddler and a husky, and we were so impressed with how kid friendly, cosy and clean the property was. We came during a winter storm, and while we had issues with flooding and landslides in route, the property itself was everything we were hoping for. We will certainly be returning again!

Lovely cabin in an extravagantly beautiful location.
Cabin seems smaller on the outside than it actually is on the inside. Inside it's clean, cozy, and well stocked. HUGE deck in front with tables, chairs, heater, gas fire pit, hammock, and a short walk down to the river, which is just beaytiful.

Nature magic
Our stay at this property was absolutely magical. The river was at a great level with both shallow areas and deep swimming holes. The hosts were amazing, and the cabin felt like home. We especially loved the outdoor area with a propane grill, hammock, and seating area. We had to cut our trip a day short but already have plans to come back. Thanks for a great stay!

Charming cabin by the Smith River
Great cabin by the Smith River! We wish we had planned a longer stay. The location by the river is delightful. We are already planning a return trip so we have more time to explore the majestic redwoods. And we definitely want more time to enjoy hanging out and playing in the river.

Cozy Cabin in the woods
We absolutely loved this darling little cabin in the woods. It was so cozy and in a wonderful, peaceful location. Close to Jedidiah Smith Redwoods and Crescent city. Not too far from Prairie Creek Redwoods either, if you like exploring the coast and various trails. We can’t wait to come back to visit.
