The property was nice a well maintained, the view was amazing from the backyard and my family enjoyed themselves. We would definitely book again. Thanks to a wonderful host Raymond!!!
We had a fantastic time! The house is well equipped, especially the kitchen. There are plenty of games for the family to enjoy. Highly recommend for a fun and relaxing family or friends getaway!
House was great very accommodating for family getaway and the host was very hospitable responded very quickly, a must if looking for a place to relax and unwind could not ask for a better place and the host is
This was the best accommodations e hang experienced renting a house for our family of 3 siblings and each of our families. We had 12 people and our dog. Everyone enjoyed the stay. The house was well stocked and had instructions and labels for most things. The kids ranged in ages from 2 - 14 and no one was ever bored. The pool was wonderful. Everyone enjoyed watching the boats go past the house in the river. The host was great with communication and responded promptly to any messages. The beds were comfortable and we had plenty of room to spread out. We will likely be back!
This property did not disappoint! Very clean and well stocked. Views of the river are nice and kids enjoyed watching the boat traffic throughout the day and the place is very calm and peaceful throughout the day, especially in the mornings and evenings. We only wished it had a dock to fish from or maybe just some rod holders attached to the bulkhead to allow for a bit more convenient fishing in the river but that’s not worthy of a deduction on the review! Just know that if you plan to do any fishing you’ll need to bring your own rod holders if doing any fishing that requires the bait to sit for any length of time. Overall, a great place to stay and we would definitely return with no questions asked.
