Well cleaned and cozy. Beautiful views. And an easy-to-contact host! Very responsive.One caution to families with young kids: The property is very close to the highway, so use your judgment on whether that works for you. Beds could be upgraded.We would visit again!

Lovely place. The proximity to the noisy highway made it less relaxing than hoped for, but this is not the fault of the host. We were able to have some privacy due to the rooms not being super close. Wonderful kitchen with view. The kayaks would have been probably usedif the current hadnt been so fast.

Nice!

We had a great stay at this property. We were in the middle of a 2 week tent camping trip and stayed for 3 nights. Washer and dryer worked well and the place provided all the comforts of home. View was beautiful.

Amazing Views

The location of this property is right off a highway along the river and can be easily missed if your are not familiar with the location. The property was gorgeous minus the road kill in the front yard. The view from the back patio area and kitchen windows was absolutely breathtaking. Overall this is a beautiful hidden gem and the property manager was very easy to get in touch with.

River Cottage Fishing Trip

The cottage is right on the water and very clean. Perfect size for 3 adult men to have enough room for a 3 night stay. Has all the amenities we needed including cooking utensils. The directions provided were correct and it was easy to access per the directions. Great place and great view.

ON the River!

The cottage was absolutely adorable, and perfect for an impromptu weekend getaway. I could have spent the entire weekend standing in the kitchen watching the water pass us by. The location was great. Plenty of places to end up within 20 minutes of the place. The only thing that would have made it better would have been staying in the summer to see it without those couple feet of pesky snow :)
