The house is great -- spacious well-stocked kitchen with a dining table large enough to seat our group of six. The layout of the bedrooms was great as everyone had privacy and close access to a bathroom. Between the living room and the loft area, there was plenty of comfortable seating for reading or watching a movie. The deck had a great view and furniture - plenty of room for outside dining. It was also nice that there was off-street parking space large enough to accommodate our three vehicles. The only disappointment was the lack of access to the river. Although it looked great in the photos, the high water level due to the runoff eliminated that access entirely. For us that was a real letdown since that was the primary reason we selected this property. By the end of June, the water level will likely be lower and fishing from the property will be possible.
