Wonderful stay! The house has everything you could possibly need, from nice shampoos to games. The water front was great and the area was quiet. Communication was excellent. No beach for the little kids but the fishing off the dock was excellent. Would stay again!

The pictures do no justice, this place is a jaw dropping beauty! Val was so accommodating and available for any questions, although we had few because the welcome book has all the thorough instructions to make your stay above and beyond amazing. Already thinking of our next stay. Thanks to Val for our much needed river spa retreat! Will definitely be back.

The house was really clean and we appreciated that it had everything we needed with our 5 adult children to cook and feel relaxed. We enjoyed all of the windows facing the river, and the nice lawn that made looking at the river even more enjoyable. It was quiet, and the hot tub under the lit up trees was really neat. The back porch was nicely shaded after 5pm. We would definitely come back.
