We had a wonderful stay at Joe’s ranch cabin. It’s truly a dog-lover’s haven and had everything we could have asked for — privacy, comfort, and the freedom to be as quiet or as lively as we wanted. The river was amazing, with plenty of walking paths for adventures. The beds were cozy, the fire pit and cowboy hot tub were fantastic, and the night sky was breathtaking. We loved cooking all our meals outside on the barbecue. Joe was a super welcoming host, and we couldn’t have asked for a better getaway.

Fantastic peaceful paradise! We sat at the riverbank for hours and watched pelicans, lots of hawks, swallows and kingfisher! We even saw a badger across the river. It looked nice and fat and happy! Saw 2 young deer in the meadow behind the hot tub. And wow! Weve never been in a wood fired hot tub with "cowboy jets" before! (aka a paddle). Super quiet nights for sleeping, just the wind in the trees and owls hooting. Joe was very attentive and a real authentic cowboy, yet he gave us complete privacy. A

Could not think of a better place to get away from it all. Peaceful, quiet and private.Amazing property hosted by an absolute gentleman.There is not much better than sitting under the stars in a wood fired hot tub after a day of fishing and exploring nature.Thanks so much Joe!
