About this property

Entire place

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

First I need to let everyone know that the access road to my place is a rightaway through a neighbors property.
This property is a 10 mph or less and it has a mobile home on it and you must never stop on this property and never exit your vehicle and continue on gravel road 200 yards to the rental house at the end of he road please.A gorgeous 15 mile drive along the South Fork of the Smith River gets you to the river side house located in an area named 'Big Flat' as it is a big flat area high in the mountains where the inland tribes gathered to meet the coastal tribes. Rich in natural history and scenic beauty, this is the type of place one wants to check in, and 'check out'. Surrounded by the sights and sounds of the river rushing by as well as a multitude of songbirds and miles of majestic wilderness, there is opportunity for swimming, rafting, tubing, hiking, cycling, fishing, kayaking or just laying on the river view deck soaking up the sun in summer or snuggling by the fire in colder months.

The house affords the ability to rough it in great comfort as it has full amenities while being off the grid, we have equipped it with solar power and propane appliances.Due to the solar power system capacity--- microwaves,toasters,hairdriers and other resistance appliances will drain the system.

In addition to the river being on the property there are several small lakes with good fishing that can be driven to. Also there are several lakes that are good backpack trips in the higher mountains.We also have a trail head to the Kelsey trail near the house. The Kelsey trail is part of the Pacific Crest trail.For more information see the Six Rivers National Forest map....many things to do.....if you see a bear just make some noise and he will run away......harmless......just don`t leave tasty smelling food out that would attract them......Jim

remember.....no hairdriers,microwaves,toasters or toaster ovens,waffle irons or electric skillets...we are on a solar system....for lights mainly......

Restful, peaceful, isolated site. The drive in is challenging but the reward once you're there is worth it.

Remote family reunion

We had 3 groups arrive and all met at the cabin my daughter and family from calif. My son from Oregon and myself and spouse from Texas. We had plenty of room for everyone to sleep. The road to the property is in very rough shape. That should be mentioned. The cabin fit all of our needs and was spacious. The deck needs some work along with the handrails. All in all we appreciated the rental and we're very satisfied. Thank you Jim.

If you are looking for a place to get away from it all for a time of peace, this is it! It is not fancy, but very well equipped and comfortable. A couple of hints to make it awesome from the moment you get there... Be sure to bring anything you might need. Ice, food, toiletries, etc because the house is 16 miles away, some of it gravel and uneven. I would not drive a sportscar down! During the summer the loft can get extremely warm. The path from the house to the river is very steep and slick in places but once down there it is beautiful and much cooler. The deck is lovely and the sound of the river is so calming, we really enjoyed our time there.

Paradise

One of the most pristine and stunningly beautiful places on the planet. The views will take your breath away. If you really like hiking and finding new fantastic places to fish or kayak, this is heaven. The cleanest water I have ever seen.

Spectacular view!!!

No words to describe how beautiful the view is! Jim had a cozy fire started for us when we arrived. We never needed the generator. Our little really enjoyed the loft and the bed was comfortable and warm. Very relaxing by the fire playing board games at night. It was extremely peaceful no one in sight with the roar of the river lulling us to sleep. This is an older cabin - not posh but we still felt pampered by the beautiful 360 view and the kind host. It was a real pleasure to be there.

Family Vacation

We had a great time staying at the cabin. The Smith River never disappoints. Thanks for an amazing home base! My daughter had a great time making forts in the loft.
