Awesome Property
We’ve been doing an annual trip since 2015 and this is the nicest house we’ve stayed at thus far. The lack of rain and low water prevented any water activities but didn’t damper the trip one bit. The house was perfect and had everything we needed. We had a great time.

Relaxing & Comfortable
This house is wonderful! The kitchen has EVERYTHING. The beds were comfortable. There was plenty of hot water for showers. The living areas were very homey. The closet filled with toys left our granddaughter playing for hours! This was the best place we have stayed on VRBO. We enjoyed sitting out on the deck, and the campfire in the back, all overlooking the river. Because the river was so low, we couldn't get the kayak or canoe out - but this year has been unusually dry, so it's understandable. We hope to stay here again!
