The Cottage at River's Bend

Located on the scenic Kokosing River enjoy the best sounds and breathtaking sunsets this river has to offer.

Located directly on the Kokosing River. One neighbor within view but are seasonal. Very quiet peaceful place.

Eagles are abundant in the winter and if you're a birdwatcher this is the place for you.

Very comfortable Queen size Serta bed.

The double sliding doors offer a beautiful view of the river even from the bed and can be opened in the summer to offer the relaxing and calming sounds of the river.

Enjoy a movie or your favorite music on the outdoor tv or bluetooth speakers on the deck or enjoy a fire while watching the river.
