We loved everything about this place, especially the outdoor spaces and proximity to so much hiking and paddle boarding, we’ll be back!
8.0 / 10.0
This Cabin offers river views, a space to launch a kayak or two, outside gathering areas, a choice of inside eating areas and table space for puzzles, board or card games.
For warm days or nights, we enjoyed the river view from a large mosquito screen fabric tent on the elevated deck with a large table and chairs underneath. We had all meals there, and found the tent great for reading and “catch up chatting time.” Below the deck we enjoyed a s’mores campfire with the babbling river serenade in the background.
The living room is small, and a bit dark. It was comfy for three. My favorite space inside was the large kitchen room complete with a wood burning stove. The unique wood counter with granite counter tops look great.I wonder about an additional love seat, chair and lamp added to this space may allow another comfy spot to relax and read indoors- when living room is full. Since the lake water is lowered in August, it was a bit tricky moving our kayaks to the river over so many rocks…but it was so worth it. The paddling was awesome. We traveled down past the town launch out to lake area. The views are so beautiful, especially in the morning.
Thank you for sharing your secluded cabin on the river. You have done a great job with the knotty pine. It feels like a cozy north woods cabin.

Absolutely the most serene place we’ve ever stayed! The property was extraordinarily well stocked, clean and totally relaxing. The views of the river and surrounding mountains topped everything off for us. Thank you hosts!!! We will be back!!

My family (myself, husband and 2 daughters 12 and 14) stayed here for a week and we had a great time! We enjoyed the house, water and kayak. The washer and dryer were great to have in the home as well! This house has everything you need. It feels secluded but is conveniently located to Northville. Arthur and Meghan even left a toy for our dog :) Hope to come back next summer :)

The property and home has everything you need to make for a comfortable and easy stay. There is plenty to do in the area. We enjoyed the seasonal highways nearby to bike and the access to the water on site was perfect.

We left Richmond,Va with the goal of escaping the heat and humidity and having a quiet and peaceful vacation. We hit the jackpot! It is obvious that Art and Meghan want their guests to feel right at home, and we did. We have stayed at 20 rentals in the last 15 years and this was one of the best!

We loved our time at this property. The house is wonderfully appointed, the owners are incredibly responsive, the street is very private and being on this part of the river was so quiet even during a very busy holiday. Would 100% stay again and would highly recommend.

This was our second time staying at the cabin, and we had an amazing time once again. Meghan and Arthur are fantastic hosts, communicative and very responsive. The house is cozy and spacious, and the views are breathtaking. The photos don't do it justice. The perfect setting for anyone looking to disconnect from the world and enjoy peace and quiet surrounded by stunning nature. We will go back again for sure!

So impressed right off the bat on arrival. Breathtaking and tranquil environment. House was very uniquely done and very catered to guests. Nothing like having a morning coffee watching the river and seeing the beautiful forest across. Id give 10 stars if I could and we will definitely be back. Owners are beyond accommodating.

This was our first time renting a property through Vrbo so we not certain what to expect, but this experience set the bar high for any future bookings! Property is on a quiet road, sheltered by woods on either side so you feel completely away from it all. Perfect part of the river to be on, very minimal traffic comes by because the water is on the shallow side, but still deep enough to catch some fish or take the kayak out. House itself is well appointed and quite spacious. We only used the king bed in the master to review, but it was a very comfortable mattress. The host literally has thought of everything you could need as others have mentioned. My husband and I, as well as our dog, loved the place and are already talking about booking this property again next year.

Great location and property on the river for an end-of-summer getaway. Clean and dog-friendly. The property was large and we enjoyed the lawn, the river, the fire-pit and the covered shelter on the deck. There were plenty of board games which we used on the days that didn't allow us to be outside. We were lucky to have abundant water in the river as it has been rainy. The owners were responsive to questions. We did not lack for anything. Thank you for sharing your property. Highly recommend.

From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, our stay was nothing short of perfection. The house is roomy yet quaint, has all the amenities you need, and the best host. Oh, and the property! The frontage along the lake is massive, with stunning views across and down the river. The views are extra special as there are no buildings or homes on the other side of the river, and with the house on a seldomly used road, the quiet coupled with the fresh mountain air gives you a sense of serenity. Meghan is a fantastic host, attentive and very helpful with local recommendations. We will definitely return in another season to experience this wonderful little peace of heaven again.

This is the third stay we have made at the property, each time has been better than the last. Can’t say enough about the beauty of the location and, as always the owners are top notch, they truly want you to be comfortable and enjoy your stay. Added bonus,… this time around we actually did see the eagle hanging out on the rocks in the river… he flew off before long but awesome sight. Looking forward to next time !!

This was such a lovely property! The hostess was very responsive. This place has it all! The house was well stocked. Great location! The only downside was that the drought had really receded the lake so we didn't get to swim & fish there. Oh, and the mattresses are too soft & you end up rolling into the middle. The house & property are incredible! Highly recommend!

The setting is gorgeous on the river with the deck overlooking the property and the lower yard with its fire circle. A few steps to the river.
The cottage is clean, well cared for and very well appointed. Such a comfortable place; we felt so at home as soon as we arrived. We would stay again for sure.

The owners could not have been nicer! The property was huge! Much bigger than pictures can do justice. The views of the water were great! House was well built and all the amenities we perfect. “Extra” of just about anything you needed was available! We had a peaceful time with bonfires at night and swimming/ air conditioning during the day! The town was small,extremely friendly and welcoming. Riverbed had lots of rocks! Bring those water shoes!

Delightful property
The house is charming, with a stellar view from the yard to the river. The fire pit by the water is heavenly, it's a quiet neighborhood and a great place to just pause for a few days.

Memorable experience
The property completely exceeded our expectations! The house was very well equipped with pantry supplies. There was a wide variety of books and movies as well. The location is very convenient to a variety of outdoor attractions, and Northville is a quick drive down the road for supplies. The River view was phenomenal. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you for your hospitality!

Fantastic Fall Weekend
Second time staying at the Eagle’s Watch property. Can’t say enough about the beauty of the location and the fantastic accommodations. The owner is probably one of the best I’ve ever dealt with on VRBO, genuinely interested in making sure you enjoy your stay. Can’t go wrong with this property for a vacation.

NIce stay at the lake
Nice clean house with nice screened patio and yard fire pit. The house was nicely set up and owners helped though TV setup issues. Yard was okay, but needed more maintenance (sections overgrown). Enjoyed kayak use, but water level had already been dropped down for the season (lots of rocks to deal with).

Fantastic Vacation
The attention to detail by the owners was impeccable. The place was spotless and beautiful. Anything you can imagine, that you may have forgotten, was there. Every time we turned around, we were amazed. I have NEVER been so pleased and impressed with a rental property. On a scale of 1 to 10, this one gets a 15! We will definitely be returning and I highly recommend it to everyone.

Clean, comfortable, and a great time!
This home was exactly as described. It was clean, cozy, and had everything you could possibly think of. We enjoyed ourselves so much. Went fishing everyday, rode around the lake on our small fishing boat, went for hikes, went to Lake George for a day trip, ate at a few good restaurants in the area, and had a very relaxing time. The house is nice and secluded with a beautiful view of the river. We would definitely go back!

River cottage quiet getaway
Very nice and clean cottage. It was amazing everything you could think of was at your fingertips. I would highly recommend this property. We will be coming back in the fall. Our two little Yorkers enjoyed the stay also.

great view
This house was better than expected. Very modern, clean, and had everything we needed. Very dog friendly as the area along the river has natural boundaries. Perfect for kayakers or small boats as the water starts to get shallow as you go farther down river which is good because the boat crowd can't go down that far. Beautiful views and the owner supplies you with more than most VRBO owners. The covered deck came in handy as we had a ton of rain for two days. Very responsive owners.

We stayed here for a long weekend while skiing in the area and it was a perfect spot for our family of 4. The house is just north of town so it's a quick trip if you need anything from the store. It's right on the river with nice views off the back deck and great sunrises right over the river/lake.The house was clean, well maintained and very well stocked. Communication with the owners was easy, they were really responsive when we reached out to them. Highly recommended if you're looking to stay in the Northville area.
