The Duke's River House This small cabin overlooks the Canoochee River in Claxton, Georgia. It is the place to reconnect with your family and nature without the distractions of work. The cabin is for couples, solo adventurers and families. The river is great for kayaking, swimming and fishing. Near Statesboro, Georgia and 50 miles from Savannah.Great fishing!Games, hammock, badminton, and DVDs movies are available for your use.Kayaks, small inflatable rafts, and tubes are available for guest to use. Closest store/gas station is 10 minutes away. Closest Walmart is 25 miles away (Statesboro, GA).Wifi: Skyroam hotspot. Do not depend on this for work or school deadlines. 1 GB is given upon check in. Extra can be purchased from the host.The access roads are not "county maintained". You will travel down 1.5 miles of dirt roads. However, my compact car handles it well. You will find it worth the bumpy ride!Your vehicle will be dusty on a dry day and muddy on a rainy day. You will not escape with a clean vehicle.Due to the continual upkeep of the property grounds, guest may see host sometime during their visit.The cabin is located on the river in the woods. Other than the possibility of other guest in nearby cabins, one would feel they finally found the secluded place they needed. It is most possible during some times of the year, one will not see or hear anyone other than themselves and nature.There is the small community of Claxton, GA a few miles up the road. This city has everything one may need. There is a grocery store, several Dollar Stores, several fast food restaurants and many gas stations.Savannah, GA, a favorite tourist spot, is only an hour away. Statesboro, GA, the home of Georgia Southern University, is 30 minutes awayThere is no public transportation.No pets due to allergies.No firearms or smoking inside.Water has a strong "sulfur" content. Many guest bring their own drinking water.The river is unpredictable. If it rises to the point of limit access, you will be contacted and given full refund. Winter months are currently unavailable. Upon request, the host will release winter dates.This is located in a remote area. It will be just you and nature! This is a narrow river with stumps, therefore, only a "small" boat with a trolling motor can be used. This is also sometimes limited. This river is not adequate for jet ski, motor boat, etc. Also, in late summer the river is so low, kayaking becomes more work than pleasure.A total of 4 cabins and one yurt are owned by Kimberly. These are located in various locations along the river. Provided bath linens are one set per guest (one bath towel and one wash cloth).Cleaning fee has not been charged/transferred to guest. Therefore, guest are expected to leave the cabin as received.It is a simple life. Guest whom are looking for the "resort" experience will be disappointed. White glove and high maintenance guest will not be satisfied.
