" We absolutely loved the Stanley River Retreat and Cabins. It was the most beautiful location right on the river with great view of the mountains. The cabins were spacious, clean, and had all the amenities. We went with another family and were able to enjoy the cabins which was wonderful! I highly recommend if you are looking for a beautiful scenic place in Stanley."

"How could this jaw dropping gorgeous riverfront property be anything but a 5 star?! I'd give it 100 stars if I could. The owner doesn't miss a detail & makes each cabin sparkle with comfort & magic. My husband & I feel so blessed we found this spot of absolute heaven. It's definitely our new happy place!!"
