Photos and Description of the Monkey Island vacation house rental
3 bedroom, 1 bath with boat dock and jet ski rental

Truly an Oasis on the River!

Submitted: July 5, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
My wife and I decided to have our honeymoon at this wonderful home as we are living in Wyoming and really missed home! When we arrived the owners were on site ensuring we had everything we needed before we enjoyed a full week at this wonderful home. The pictures truly don't give it the justice until you are onsite and able to take in the views and the newly renovated home. The house is in like new condition and very comfortable to make yourself at home. The boat dock is great for swimming and/or docking your boat and being in an area you can enjoy without much boat traffic or noise. If you are looking for a home to enjoy the water and enjoy the peace and quite this would be the home to consider. Thanks again for a wonderful place to enjoy a very great week for my wife and myself!

We enjoyed our stay in the cabin. Everything was clean and most everything you might need was in the cabin. We had a family get together in the area and it was wonderful to find a cabin so close to the area we needed. Loved having the boat/fishing dock! I wish we could have stayed longer to take full advantage of that. It is very quiet and peacful and worth the drive out to it. The kids loved the loft bedroom! My only suggestion would be if you are coffee drinkers you might want to bring your own cups. That is the only thing we didn't find and I may have over looked them. We found plastic cups that worked. I read one review that mentioned the water but we never smelled the "sulpher" water even when we showered and the bottle water was very convenient in the kitchen. The owners went above and beyond to take care of us. Thank You!! Hope to stay here again.

Stinky

2 of 5
Submitted: August 6, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
Should have stated 85+ steps down to the water, and no working AC in the "AC boat house".
Poorly supplied kitchen, as well as un drinkable tap water. Not to mention horrible sulfer smelling water for showers , dish cleaning etc. This was not diclosed until 24 hrs before rental.
Owner's Response: The dock is down from the bluff on Elk River which requires many steps to gain access. An electric tram is available to visitors who may need a ride down or a lift up. The dock is not air conditioned. The water to the cabin is well water and has a sulfur smell when you use hot water. Disclosure of well water is in the advertising; therefore, bottled water for drinking is supplied. The owners' telephone number is given to guests so that items needed can be addressed immediately to make the guests' stay as pleasant as possible.

It was very nice! We had a blast. We were able to swim and fish. The kids caught 12-15 fish and had a great time. The washer and dryer was a bonus! I would recommend this spot to friends and family.
