Rustic and secluded but with all the amenities

The property was exactly what my group needed. The house was beautifully decorated to have a peaceful stay, and we enjoyed the hot tub, outdoor seating, and river area too. The bathrooms were stocked with towels and the kitchen had everything we needed and more. The river area is like a private little oasis. We truly enjoyed our stay, we definitely recommend staying here.
