Family river trip
The house is perfect for 4, it has just enough amenities, but the location is what makes this place great. River access is perfect. My kids had a great time floating, swimming and fishing. We will definitely stay again.

Lazy days on the river
This property was everything we hoped for! The distance to the river was right at our back door and provided privacy to relax in the river. We would definitely recommend this property. Thank you for being our host!

Great stay
Other than I thought it was river front, did not expect the little slew between us and the river. Aso need the address better displayed, had a bit of a time finding it. Very clean, very welcoming. Enjoyed our stay.
