Pristine Waterfront Cottage on the Deer River

Upon reaching the Deer River Rental, you will find yourself in a beautiful getaway nestled away on a dead end road in the country with a river running directly behind the cottage. A delightful footpath along the river along with Adirondack chairs and a fire pit only add to the beauty. Breathe in the fresh air as you unwind from traveling; you can finally relax- you’ve reached your home away from home! The newly renovated cottage is squeaky clean awaiting your arrival! Located on the deer river with beautiful picture windows in dining room and kitchen as well as living room overlooking river. 1 bedroom has sliding doors opening on to covered porch overlooking river. Paved driveway. Washer and dryer. Kitchen is well stocked. WiFi available.

Our private Cottage has been recently renovated and includes 2 bedrooms with 1 queen bed in each along with dressers and mirrors. Both bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen & sitting area on the first floor and overlook the river. Both bedrooms have a/c units along with kitchen/ dining area and living room. Large living room & laundry room downstairs. Lots of windows in this Cottage with amazing views allows for an abundance of natural light to pour into the space. There are steps into the house and into the downstairs living room. We have a complimentary washer, dryer, and dishwasher for your convenience with laundry and dishwasher detergent. There are no TV’s.

Make yourself at home in our fully stocked kitchen, equipped with everything you need to cook up a feast—refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, microwave, Keurig coffee maker, as well as cooking utensils and dinnerware. If you like, toss some steaks onto our outdoor charcoal grill, and enjoy dining around our backyard pub table with views of the river. Or enjoy a cup of coffee while lounging in a Adirondack chair.

In front of the garage, you’ll find paved parking available with space for up to 2 vehicles. There is also space for parking a truck and trailer in front of the cottage.
Our keyless entry will give you easy access anytime of day or night, and will be customized for you to make your stay secure. You’ll be able to self check-in at your convenience anytime after 3pm, and won’t have to worry about losing the keys or getting locked out.

This house was the cleanest and most thoughtfully stocked of any Vrbo I have ever rented. The hosts were friendly and communicative. There was a real personal touch and the house was very comfortable and welcoming. The view of the river is charming and I hope next time we can stay again and have time to relax by the riverside!

Pristine Water Front Cottage

The property was perfect for a quick weekend away for my daughter's graduation from college. The cottage was clean and welcoming with everything we needed to cook or have a cup of coffee by the creek out back. High recommend this cottage for anyone looking to unplug from your busy life.

Fabulous

This house is a gem! The location is fabulous. It is convenient to near by amenities but still immersed in nature. It is spotlessly clean, comfortable, and well stocked for guests. Communication was wonderful. Thank you for such thoughtful hospitality. This has been one of our best VRBO stays ever.

Cozy and comfy

This property was perfect. We were in town to spend time with family. Everything was as described. The kitchen is well stocked. The owners even wrote a note to us and left it on the table with some jam. They were amazing and had great communication throughout. It was super cozy. I wish we would have stayed longer. We will be back next summer as well.

This property is a gem! Well appointed, spotless, beautiful views, quiet surroundings, and the owners are lovely! Easy check in, and comfortable beds too. I arrived late due to a delayed flight and was thrilled to find some snacks available (as I didn’t have time to stop for anything). Great communication which was appreciated. I’ve stayed at many different properties and this is by far the nicest. The cleanliness factor alone would have put it in the top 10 easily, but the extra touches and aforementioned items made it zoom right to number 1! If you’re looking for a quiet retreat, this is the place.

Our stay at the cottage on the Deer River was delightful. The house was pristine and the decor was welcoming and modern - think fluffy towels, brightly colored plates and mugs, cozy comfortable bedding, and plenty of room to unpack. The kitchen has everything you need to cook including a rice maker! You will also find a lazy Susan well stocked with snacks and a jar of homemade jelly. The master bedroom opens to a private patio overlooking the Deer River. The second bedroom as well as the spacious second living room downstairs overlook the river too. Downstairs is equipped with a foosball table and a cozy gas stove that was simple to operate. There are games and wooden toys for children in a locker in the laundry room. The hosts are very accommodating. We returned home after a day away visiting friend and found that they had set up a fire pit and Adirondack chairs for us on a grassy peninsula overlooking the river. They also left a second jar of jelly in the front porch for us to take home. I would definitely stay at Deer River Cottage again!
