Beautiful Location - house needs a little attention
The location was beautiful, check-in process was simple, but the house needs some attention. I sent a list of things to the property manager who assured me those things would be addressed. Probably the most impactful to us was the lack of hot water all weekend, although i didnt mention anything until the last day because i didnt want to deal with someone in there repairing or replacing a water heater while we were staying there. Again, beautiful location and that deck is very nice.

Anniversary trip
Great place. Great for small romantic stay or whole family stay. Property was just as advertised.
The only trouble we had was finding the place. We got in the first gate and then based on the instructions it sounded like it should be right there but it wasn’t. We had to call the owner to get the rest of the directions. They were very receptive and even though it was late when we were getting there they were kind and helpful. They should just include that last part of the instructions on the initial check in instructions.
Overall a beautiful spot on the river and the cabin was very nice.

Great Weekend GetAway
The house and property are perfect for family gatherings and cooking out or using the river. The location is close to town once you find it, only thing we would suggest is more signage or directions off the main road to get to the property. We had to guide every car in one by one when coming to see us, and we were lost a couple times getting back to it, but ended up getting there and have a great time! Furnished with everything from plates to extra blankets and very roomy area for cooking and gathering! We will stay again for sure!

What a great place!
Super clean, private, and spacious. My wife and I were looking to take a break from work for the weekend and this fit the bill. Woke up in the morning to birds chirping and views of the river. Will definitely be staying again.
