Amazing Home for a large group

We stayed here with a group of Moms and daughters for a lacrosse tournament that was about 40 mins away. The place was perfect for a large group with plenty of parking, bedrooms, showers and areas to relax. There was plenty to keep the girls busy with the hot tub, ping pong table, pickle ball court, etc., which was fantastic. The kitchen was also a great size for cooking for the group. Thanks for a great experience!

The house is beautiful and is in a very quiet and private location. It has a great view of the river which makes sitting on the large deck great.

This was by far the best Property we have ever stayed at. We were in town for a cheer competition with 6 moms and 7 daughters. The upstairs room had beds for every girl plus some! The house was extremely clean and the host literally though about EVERYTHING. From local menus, to games for all ages and even to-go containers in the kitchen! (which we always forget!)

Perfect for large group

We had a group of 18 moms and daughters, and this place was perfection. The rooms were spacious, the kitchen was well-stocked, the basement was filled with games/activities for the kids, and the view was incredible. The house was clean and tidy, and the host was clear and accurate with descriptions/information. Although we didn’t use the two basement bedrooms, the option to have more rooms with privacy would have been wonderful if needed.The kids spent a majority of the time outside on the playset which was great for kids under 10, and we spent the evenings on the large deck soaking in the stunning view of the river. The property was very private and absolutely perfect for our fun weekend away.

Beautiful home - great for large groups!

We loved this property, the views, and the privacy. We very comfortably fit a group of 12, but could have easily fit more. My only complaint is communication with guests could be improved. The owner does not specifically provide any instructions on how to operate the hot tub in advance, even though this could easily be put in the welcome email or on-property binder. After many attempts to reach the owner, it took until our last day for the hot tub to be operational, as maintenance was sent hours before we left. Like many, I always filter on properties with hot tubs, so this was disappointing.

Beautiful home, Very Clean

My husband and I rented the home for us, our adult children and our grandchildren for an out of town wedding. It's a beautiful, newish home with a perfect layout for several families vacationing together. All the bedrooms are not in one place with everyone on top of each other; the house layout creates privacy for different families and several gathering spaces. The kitchen is large and well stocked and the bathrooms have plenty of clean white towels. The only thing we were not aware of, and we should have realized, is the house sits way back off the main road. It's a beautiful location on the river but the access road is a long gravel driveway. It's scenic and private, we just wouldn't have taken the Maserati, lol! SUV is best! But we loved our stay and we would like to go back when we have more time to explore the area. There's a lot of hiking and fun River activities available very close by (fishing and rafting). Hint to Owner: It would be awesome if a path were cleared to be able to access the river from the property!!
