Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Billy Ray M. 6 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very relaxing. I had a fine time, the location was good, the staff were friendly, the accommodation was clean and very well appointed. I would change two things in the listing. The wifi was intermittent and slow when it was present and though this is a "river retreat" there really isn't a river, looks like it's been dry for several years. ##### Billy Ray M. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jason W. 31 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Misleading photos and info The rivers dry, the pool is tiny, and the ac barely cools the kitchen much less the bedrooms, it was 80 in the bedrooms til 2am or later. ##### Jason W.
