"The property was wonderful. The rooms were comfortable and the game room and the sunroom were hits. The season we chose did keep us from enjoying the river below the property, it was dry, but it did make great family pictures. We were able to communicate well with the owners and had all our questions answered. We brought our Blackstone griddle and cooked most our meals on it on the back patio. The backyard is beautiful and maintained well. Our grandchildren felt comfortable and really loved the little cottage."
