Summary: We had such a wonderful family time. The cabin is excellent; spacious and well laid out. Coffee on the back porch with its view of Little River is peaceful and relaxing.We paddled upstream, and downstream to Desoto Falls. The water was cold and clean. Some fished, some swam, some of us just sat and enjoyed the outdoors.
