Everything is well thought out. Very well supplied kitchen. It is a 5 star place, but a word of caution if you have small children or issues with steps. The main living area is on the upper level and there are a lot of steps. I do have knee issues, but the view and place are so nice, I would stay again if in the area. ##### Melanie Z. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John R. 29 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great hospitality with wine beer water. Great rooms and furnishings. Great view of the river and deck chairs. Wow one of the best places ever stayed in. ##### John R. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025
