The river is lovely. The recent storm caused some messiness. That was in the process of getting cleaned up. The house is very clean. We enjoyed the fire pit. Joey is a delight. Highly recommend.

Fantastic Thanksgiving on the river!
To say we had a great experience at Old Charlie’s would be a major understatement. Not only did the weather cooperate, but working with Joey before and during our stay was flawless. We caught truth right there on the property and the birding was excellent (25 species spotted!!) We met my parents and made memories we will all cherish. If you’re on the fence on this property, run… don’t walk. It’s a keeper! Pun intended, catch and release area!

Amazing riverfront cabin
Went here with my wife kids and my brother and his wife and kids. The house has more than enough room for larger groups. The downstairs was great for the kids! We floated from the dam to the cabin multiple times during the weekend and caught a ton of trout. We spent a lot of time in the mornings just sitting on the big porch overlooking the river. We all had a blast and will be coming back to this one!

Beautiful setting!
Everyone really enjoyed the openness of the living space. Decor was nice and the furnishings (beds to seatings) were comfy. We had boys ranging in age from two to thirteen and they loved the outdoors and especially the water. The only concern was about the outside stairs. With arthritic hips, I found the outside stairs challenging. I was glad to find the inside stairs much easier to negotiate. We highly recommend this listing!

This property has gotten better with time. Great beds and lots of them. From a river stand point it’s perfect. Some of the best fishing is right outside the door. The house is private but not too secluded. I’ve stayed at just about every place but this one is my favorite. In an ideal world I wish I could rent just the upstairs for my family.

Cute place
This cabin was great! We had plenty of space for all of us to sleep. Beds were comfortable. The location is beautiful on the river. It was a great pet friendly cabin. The water here is great for fishing, but not swimming and splashing around. It’s per fast moving especially when they start releasing water from the dam.

Second time we have stayed here. Quite a lot of remodeling done during the past year, all to the good. Very clean and quiet. Loved listening to the river. Fishing was great. Not a lot to do other than relax, fish and eat. Exactly the reason we came and will come again. Well stocked and great place to stay
