Perfect romantic getaway
This spot is the perfect place to unplug and unwind. We spent the whole week enjoying all the South Fork has to offer. Thank you Joe & Sally. We can’t wait for our next visit.

Great time, rain or shine
We loved our stay here—the beautiful river, friendly hosts, and the cabin was just perfect! The sleeping bunks are generously sized and there bed in the loft was super comfortable. We really enjoyed all the area has to offer, wish we had stayed longer. It was also such a relief to be out of cell service for a while. Hope we can return again soon.

Cabin in Paradise
We enjoyed three days at this location while on a western road trip. Joe and Sally were excellent to stay with. They pointed us in the right direction for the best experience. This property is absolutely beautiful. Joe’s stone work is amazing. If we ever make it back to this part of the world, we will stay here again. Thanks for making our stay great!

Hey Pete, hope to hear about your trip home to your Wisconsin farm. I really enjoyed hearing about your farming life. I have always valued the “small” farmer and their struggles in modern times with everything. I loved our conversations. I hope you enjoyed the route home that I initiated for you!

One of the best places on the Smith River!
Like paradise located on the bluff above the beautiful South Fork Smith River. Feels wild yet just a short drive to all the great Del Norte sights. Beautiful A-Frame with all the comforts of home. We had friends for Thanksgiving dinner and prepared a huge meal in the full kitchen. Joe and Sally (and Nelly the wonder dog!) are the perfect hosts. Highly recommend.

Sweet cabin on the Smith River
Great spot. We had a very quick trip, and the entire trip made a huge impression. Thank you Joe, Sally and Nelly, for sharing your special place, what an absolute treat. Every detail is covered, like a wood burning fire awaiting our arrival on a cold rainy night. It was hard to leave...until next time. Cheers

Beautiful, remote, riverfront property
This beautiful property location did not disappoint! It was everything I was hoping it would be, and the hosts, Sally and Joe, were very accommodating, even allowing us to shift our 4 night stay dates up a day. We had unusual circumstances, being that our booking ended up landing during the middle of the Smith River Complex Fire, with Del Norte County shutting down power to the entire county. We fared well, however, in Sally and Joe's cabin -- they are equipped to operate "off the grid" and we continued to have power throughout our 4 day stay. Thank you for your hospitality, Sally and Joe, and for your efforts to maintain our safety and comfort during what was likely a very stressful time for you during the fire. Hoping all continues to be well with you and praying that you and your home remain out of harm's way!

Hi Pam. Just saw this. Thank you for the wonderful review and being so patient during g your stay here. Hopefully your husbands asthma was okay and not irritated by smoke. We remained safe and had fire crews here for three weeks, right here. They laid out hoses, sprinklers, a water tank with pump. Had three different crews including the LA County fire department who Joes cousin works for and they stayed at cabin also. Got our first guests on the 21st. Smoke left with rains last week. Things are back to normal in Del Norte except 199 still on regulated traffic and closed certain hours. Probably more info than you need! Take care and thank you for choosing Jade River Lodge. So nice to meet you. Some big Salmon in river right now!

When can we go back?!??
This was the BEST vacation my family’s experienced in quite some time! Visiting the Pacific Northwest has always been on our “bucket list” but we were overwhelmed with it ALL! Our 16 yo daughter literally described this as a dream vacation and asked if we could just leave her behind! Being in the middle of nature, overlooking the Smith River, and seeing EVERY SINGLE STAR in the night sky was more than any of us could have hoped for! Our daily greetings and company with Nelly were the cherry on the top! We had some lovely talks with Joe, he is a super cool guy! The “living off the grid” thing was certainly a new experience for us, but it was great and exactly what we needed to calm down & refocus. We cannot recommend this place enough!!! Absolutely wonderful!!! Just trying to figure out when we can get back!!

Cozy solitud
Fabulous river spot with a cozy cabin. Very clean and quiet. We loved being off grid, playing board games, reading on the deck, star gazing at night in the reclining lawn chairs. Would be ideal for a couple with one/two small kids although I wouldn't recommend it for toddlers due to the spiral staircase to the loft with no railing. Kids 5 - 12 are probably best for this spot. We would love to visit again, we had a fabulous time!

Beautiful Smith River
The property was amazing. Joe and wife are amazing hosts. Their house is located on the same property but they gave us our privacy. The sandy beach swimming hole just down from the cabin was awesome. We loved being "off grid" with no wifi, tv, cell service, or microwave. All of the remote hiking trails in the area are gorgeous and Joe was able to gelp us with that too. Our dogs had a great time playing with Nellie and it was so cute how she came to greet us every morning or when we had returned to the cabin. It is 30 minutes from Crescent City so you have the forest and ocean at your fingertips. We would love to return. The spiral staircase to the loft is super cute but dont recommend for someone that has bad knees the same with the steep rock staircase down to the swimming hole.

Oasis in the redwoods
Just what we wanted - off the grid. Homey and comfortable, and on the beautiful Smith river. Coffee in the mornings watching the river flow by, hiking in the magnificent Redwoods or on the beach by day, beer in the evenings with a campfire. Perfect weather. Joe and Sally were awesome hosts. Would be there tomorrow if we could!

A sweet escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Beautiful and serene view to the river that lays below. Nellie is the sweetest greeting committee once you arrive and everyday after you return back from trips. She is also a perfect cuddle buddy. We loved having her in the cabin throughout our stay. Joe is amazing. He will give you a rundown on the cabin aswell as the best trails and locations to visit. Thank you so much for making us feel welcomed and a part of your family joe.

Amazing Little Cabin!
This little cabin was our favorite VRBO that we’ve ever stayed at! The view of the river and the mountain is absolutely amazing! Joe was a very kind and friendly host who gave us some great suggestions for day trips and a nice little BBQ place in Crescent City. We all very much enjoyed the visits from Nellie the Golden Retriever. She spent evenings with us while playing Uno and various other board games that are provided. We weren’t able to connect to the Wi-Fi, but none of us minded at all. I definitely recommend this cabin for anyone who wants a nice relaxing vacation!

Perfect for Disconnecting.
Joe and Sally were kind hosts, providing insights and tips for exploring the area. Their guidance was particularly helpful because we brought our dog along and wanted to take him in at least one or two hikes, which we did! Bed, living room, and sleeping pads were all fabulous. The upstairs bathroom is exposed/open to the bedroom but we didn’t mind. The kitchen functioned well, but since we stayed for so long and did much of our own cooking - I wish we had brought our own knives and skillets. We were smart enough to bring a selection of spices. The freezer space is also pretty limited. In addition to easy access to the Smith river, you can hear it from inside the house (lovely) and we spotted a bald Eagle flying by, twice. It was, without traffic, an easy 30 - 45 minute drive to major Redwood parks or sites and many local hikes were even closer. The cabin itself is remote and sans cell or strong internet, which was what we wanted so we could work on artistic projects. And, a small note, While perfect for our visit, I wouldn’t recommend the cabin to folks with accessibility or sensitive medical needs.

REally enjoyed your visit. Wish I had had you adjust my bike, I tried it and messed up my cable, have to order a new one since I frayed it by tightening too hard. Cold here, 34 degrees, ha ha.

Peaceful Retreat
Joe and Sally were excellent hosts. The house was very clean and spacious and the location was amazing! We enjoyed being “off the grid” and relaxing when we weren’t out visiting the Redwoods. There were lots of maps and guides in the house to help us plan our days. We especially enjoyed seeing Nelly at our door each morning to say hi. Had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay again if we are in the area.

Beautiful-Relaxing Getaway Cabin
The cabin is very nice and clean. The landscape is lovely, especially in the early morning...gorgeous. Our dog loved exploring the forest setting and daily greetings from Nellie. The spiral staircase is a concern for those uneasy about staircases without railings; taking luggage and the dog up and down with one hand was possible, but not "comfortable" for me.

Wonderful Oasis
We had an amazing time at this cabin! Joe was super helpful with recommendations for hikes and we loved their dog, Nelly!! The lack of TV and cell service made this such a special place to spend time to unwind. Great location for redwood hikes; however, we could have spent all of our time just enjoying the cabin, deck, and river! Would highly recommend… we would love to come back someday!

Remote Family Getaway
We were looking for a quiet space to take our boys and decompress for a few days, and we sure found it! Everything was perfect- traditional cabin feel, amazing river views with access, and great fishing. Both Joe and Sally came over to greet us and were so welcoming and informative; and certainly we cannot go without mention of our friendly houseguest and the most loving golden retriever ever, Nelly. As a parent with a small child and working mom that must be flexible at times, there are a few things I would share with other guests to be aware of- definitely not complaints. The house itself did not have Wi-Fi. If you must have Wi-Fi for work or other…. You will need to venture to the end of the driveway where you might find a single bar, or need to head into the little nearby town of Hiuchi. Something to be aware of if you must work or need steady connection for other purposes. The stairs to the loft area are not the best for tiny humans. They’re a steep spiral, with no railing; my 2 year old loved them but it did come with just a tiny bit of stress for mom and dad. Overall this little cabin is a true gem and we’re so thankful Joe and Sally shared with our family! We plan to come back in the future.

Just a 15 or so minute drive along the river to get to the redwoods. About 25 min from crescent city. The cabin itself is very cozy! It was very nice to watm by the wood burning stove each evening. There is a beautiful golden retriever next door that will make sure you are happy with your stay! Also the property owner, Joe, was very nice and accommodating.

A truly magically place to stay
The Cabin is wonderfully stocked and extremely cozy with good use of space. Location wise it feels like you are way far away from everything yet it is only about 30 minutes from Crescent City and the coast, and even less time to some amazing hikes in Jedadiah State Park. The river it is on is absolutely pristine. Clear and refreshing, little to no current which make for great swimming and snorkeling. And to top it off Joe, Sally and their dog Nelly are extremely friendly and nice. It was all around an amazing place to stay and we will be back for sure!

Beautiful oasis
We loved every minute of staying here. It was a perfect place to unplug and appreciate what Mother Nature has to offer. The location was great, about an hour away from all the popular sightseeing spots. I gave 4 stars for the neighborhood because there is a neighbor down the way with a literal junkyard of a set-up, and with small children it just didn’t give me those most safe, welcoming feeling as we pulled into the drive. But once you get to the house, it is truly beautiful and the kids had a blast playing on the spiral staircase and collecting rocks on the river.

What an amazing time here!!! Joe and Sally were nothing short of amazing hosts!! They gave us a bottle of homemade blackberry wine that was absolutely delicious, we enjoyed it by the campfire. Nellie, the golden retriever was the sweetest ever!! Loved playing ball with her! The cabin was off the grid with no cell service which was perfectly fine with us. It was the perfect place to stay, even grilled steaks one night. We explored the beauty of the area and we were just in awe at the beauty this area has to offer. From mountains, rivers, oceans, prairies, live elk, sea lions, rocks, and huge trees all within a mile of each other, what more could you ask for!!! We can’t wait to come back already!!! Thank you so much for having us and being a part of our honeymoon adventure!!

Close to The Redwoods
If you are looking to get away from all the hustle and bustle of life, this is the place. About 12 minutes away from The Redwoods - can't beat that! We hiked and enjoyed being away from it all for a few days. The cabin is off the grid, so electricity is precious - be mindful of your meal planning - no microwave or dishwasher. We enjoyed making a fire in the woodstove each day, which kept us warm most of the night. Sitting on the back deck and listening to the river was wonderful and a beautiful stone stairway to get you to the water, if you like.
