On waterfront pleasures
Ramble to the river to launch your paddleboard, kayak, raft, or to the dock to use the 14ft canoe or wooden rowboat. Soak up the sun, fish, or stage a full moon canoe ride. Marvel at the volcanic aquifer natural springs babbling among towering aspen and brilliant lupine. Stroll through the forest on pine needle covered walking trails that meander along the banks of the glistening crystal clear Spring River. Rest in the wildflower meadows, pick wax currents, or walk the sun-kissed labyrinth that shares sacred ground with ancient ponderosa pines and the unforgettable Grandfather Tree.

Settle in the Cabin master bedroom with one queen bed donned with a down comforter and a Pendleton blanket. Enjoy the common living space with a vaulted ceiling, large picture window, fireplace, double futon, antique sitting chair, and two twin beds. Tuck away in the back bedroom with two queen beds, writing desk, and world travel & children's book library.

On cooking
Mix up modern foodie or pioneer meals in the fully stocked kitchen. Barbecue your favorite summer fare on the outdoor gas grill or the wood-burning fireplace.
