Very enjoyable!

The house was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. I loved that there were enough bedrooms for all my children to have their space. Also, the beds were comfortable. The kids loved the creek and the scenery was beautiful. Even though there is a house on each side, it was still very peaceful and quiet. The one tip I would give others is to know where you are going without gps because reception is spotty. We would definitely go again.

Excellent base “camp” for Savage River fishing adventure

Great host with fly fishing wisdom. Great cabin, just feet from the Savage River. 2.5 bathrooms for 4 bedrooms. Spacious living room, dining room , kitchen and basement apartment. Easy, clean and comfortable. Exceeds expectations. Access to Savage, North Branch of the Potomac, tributaries and reservoirs. Don’t count on fast internet. But isn’t that why you come to the Savage River., to catch difficult fish not watch YouTube videos about fishing.

Quiet and relaxing

We enjoyed the sound of the water. Very relaxing and soothing. Enjoyed gathering around the fire pit with the Savage River running through the back yard. Nice views of Savage River from the house. House well kept.
