Trappers Cabin on the River

Serene and peaceful

We enjoyed the peace and quiet of this private space. The "steep" hill is really small and is really only not suited for a sedan type vehicle. We have a Nissan SUV and it went up and down the steep bunny hill fine. We saw wildlife and caught fish. It was a wonderful place to spend quality time.

Trappers Cabin on the River

My wife and I plus our 2 kids stayed a night at trappers cabin. it was beautiful and well kept on the river but there were a few cons. There’s no mention that you will have strangers with dogs walking through your site as it’s on a public walking trail. Also in the hipcamp description it’s marked as a “park at site” this is not true and it only says you’ll have to walk if it rains heavily. We had to haul all of our stuff with a wheelbarrow through the woods making multiple trips which overall ruined our day as I just had a knee surgery. If you’re looking for privacy and to park your vehicle at the site this probably isn’t for you.

Wonderful space

Everything went well. The cabin is plenty spacious for two of us and 5 dogs. The site is well cared for. The sleeping arrangements were very comfortable. Plenty of options for a small or bigger group. The river bank was dreamy. Toilet and shower available which I appreciated greatly. This is glamping in my book!

Fall camp at Trappers Cabin

This cabin was absolutely stunning! Very cozy, clean cabin with amazing views of the river. Make sure you follow the written directions, otherwise it would have been tricky to find. But, that's what I also loved about it, it was a private oasis. The fall colors reflected beautifully on the river early in the morning.
