Fantastic Property
This is one of the best rental homes I have ever seen. Everything was fantastic. Wonderful use of space and it is hard to explain how impressive the view from above and at the river was. Can't wait to come back for another visit.

Lots of Fun
We stayed at the property with two families. The creek behind the house is beautiful, and the house is very well appointed. We ended up bringing a pet that required us to change our contract with the manager. This revision was quick and easy, and the communication was very good all along the way.
It is very steep to get down to the creek at the property, which was fine for us. In fact, my teenage son is training for a team tryout in the fall, and ran the incline as part of his training. But, for families with older members it might not be doable. The only real concern we had was the proximity of the house to a "main" road. We were there during a busy weekend, and a couple of times people parked along the nearby bridge and wandered down to the riverbank of the property. The people were nice and we certainly didn't have any problems, but I can imagine that being an issue one day.
We had a wonderful time and our interactions with the owners were positive. I definitely recommend the place!
