The stay at the house was absolutely fantastic! It’s a beautiful home with stunning views, and watching the sunrise in the morning was truly spectacular. The house was very clean and well-maintained, making it a perfect place for a comfortable stay.Everyone, including the kids, enjoyed it so much. The highlight for them was catching a fish right from the back waters of the house – such a fun and memorable experience!It’s a wonderful spot whether you’re staying with family or friends, ideal for both relaxation and making great memories. The host, Frank, was excellent – very helpful and quick to respond to all inquiries.I would rate this place 10/10 for the house, the stay, and the host. The only small suggestion would be to have the grill located outside the kitchen door, which would make it more convenient than carrying things to the other side of the house.Overall, highly recommended!

We had a fantastic time at the beautiful River House. It was the perfect getaway from our busy surroundings, offering a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. We enjoyed playing pool, swimming in the river, fishing, and exploring the beach for unique rocks and shells. While the nearest restaurants and grocery store are a short drive away, every meal we had at the local restaurants was absolutely delicious!

Wonderful house for a large group

This is a beautiful house with gorgeous views of the river and is great for a friend or family reunion! We gathered 6 families, with kids ranging from 1 to 8, and had plenty of room and so much fun! The kitchen/dining area was amazing (and huge) for prepping meals and allowing all 18 of us to eat together. It was super hot when we were there, but we were able to play on the river beach some and take the kayaks out. We spent a lot of time at the community pool, which was great for kids. The house was very clean and had everything we needed! Frank was great about answering our many questions before we arrived.

Excellent Property and very responsive owner

The property was fantastic, as described. Crabbing was good. Frank was very responsive at all times. We had an issue with the hot water. Frank and 2 of his workers were there the next day to fix it. We did not encounter any jellyfish where we swam in front of the house. Our only issue was the location is not ideal for doing other things as there’s just not a lot to do unless you drive an hour away. Our teenagers made the hour one-way trip a few times to go elsewhere. Overall, we had an awesome time!!!

Everything was great, beautiful house, pickleball driveway, great screened porch. Sadly the VRBO app listed an elevator (elderly grandparents needed to get upstairs) but Frank worked with them to help get our fee back.

Fun family vacation

My family enjoyed spending a few days at this lovely home. The kids had a ton of fun swimming. There were a couple of jelly fish stings but it wasn't too bad. There were plenty of kayaks and paddle boards for everyone to enjoy. The house was well stocked with enough pillows and blankets for everyone. The kitchen was beautiful and well stocked but some of the kitchen pans may need to be replaced with newer ones. Overall it was a great experience, my family had a wonderful time and Frank was very helpful and quick to respond. Thank you!

Beautiful house, perfect for extended family!

We rented this home for our Thanksgiving celebration. Everyone said it was perfect. Some in our family slept in another house around the corner, but all 21 gathered here during the day. Kitchen well equipped. Lots of seating room inside. Very comfortable. Great view of the river and pretty sunrises. Owner very responsive.

Gorgeous, well equipped waterfront rental

This house was truly amazing!! Plenty of room for the entire family, My 94 year old mom could stay on the main floor and enjoy the views and activity from inside the living room or on the deck. Every bedroom was comfortable with plenty of room to spread out. So many extras included. Pool table/hot tub was a blast. We also loved crabbing off the dock. Crabs every night for dinner. The beach was perfect for our grand children and the adults enjoyed floating on our huge raft and tied it to the pier at night. This place is truly a gem and we hope to return again. Thank you for sharing your home!

Great home for relaxing vacation

We enjoyed tremendously. Lots of activities and room to keep busy at house for entire family. Other than eating out on two occasions, we stayed at house for the week. Jellyfish kept us out of water so enjoyed the pool, hot tub and kayaks on the water. Fishing and crabbing were fun for the kids. We enjoyed the vacation tremendously!

Weekend Getaway

This house is amazing! The open floor plan allows space for a large group to gather without feeling cramped. Everyone loved the pool table, the seating in the kitchen/dining area was perfect for playing games and doing puzzles, playing cards in the screened in porch and a campfire on the beach. The kitchen is beautiful and pretty well stocked; although, there was only one hot pad. There is plenty room for parking multiple cars. Since we were here in February we weren't able to take advantage of the water toys. My only con is that some of the beds were too firm - like sleeping on the floor. It won't keep me from coming back to this house. Thank you Frank for everything!

Wow!!!

This property is an architectural marvel. I was amazed at the creativity involved at expanding this house into a phenomenal river front property. If you have the opportunity, awake for a beautiful sunrise behind the river. The view from the large back porch or the dock watching sunrise is wonderful. We spent a lot of time gathering together as a family in the kitchen (with a table for 10 plus 6 more at the kitchen peninsula) or on the back patio enjoying the ambience. Because the house was updated/redone in the last few years it was clean and just awesome. The master bedroom and crow's nest are really spectacular. Much better than shown in the photos. This isn't your typical VRBO property but a true gem.
