Always a wonderful stay!

We're on year 5 staying at La Bella Vista. The property is so lovingly cared for and the property owners are always adding and improving. The cabins are cozy and well appointed, having everything you'll need for your stay. The property is gorgeous and full of adventure. The owners have been amazingly helpful over the years anytime we needed anything. We go back year after year, not to catch the salmon, but to enjoy family in a quaint and peaceful setting.

Relaxing and restful week

We enjoyed our time in this cozy cottage. It was squeaky clean and comfortable. Despite the rain, we had fun exploring the area and spending time on the deck, on the dock near the lake and indoors. It isn't large but it's perfect for two people. As a bonus, we could have our dog (11 years old) with us and we loved that part too. Would recommend and will stay there again!

Great stay at the lake

We had a wonderful stay at this property. Despite the rainy weather we still enjoyed kayaking and fishing and relaxing. Grilled every night. Took the short drive over to Salmon River Falls. Beautiful. Space was perfect for the 2 of us and our dog Callie. Cabins are a bit closer to each other than we expected but that was fine. Highly recommend-we look forward to coming back next summer!!

Rafting trip

The cabin was great. I was in town for a rafting trip on the salmon river. The location of the cabin was great. I like that each cabin had a somewhat private outdoor space and fire pit. The access to the kayaks and the lake was wonderful. I enjoyed my stay and would book from this host again.

Becoming a tradition!

I stayed at this property in 2023 and loved my experience I came back in 2024. The property was just as great as I had remembered. Communicating with Brian was easy, he was quick to reply and accommodate all of our needs. I have nothing but amazing things to say about the property- will be back again next year!

The property was clean, conveniently located, amazing views, and good fishing. The beds are very uncomfortable so I recommend getting new beds or people bringing memory foam or blow up mattresses! Overall we had a great time! Thank you!
