Lovely view and great access to the river but not quite what we expected
Pros: The location of the house was perfect! The dock was only a few feet from the back door. It was quiet and relaxing with beautiful views. The owner responded to all our questions within minutes and we were able to access the house an hour early.Things we wish we had known: There were very few restaurant options that were opened and only one small grocery store within 15-20 miles. The food selection was poor and the prices extremely high. Had we known, we would have brought provisions with us. Cons:The kitchen was extremely small and the cooking utensils and appliances minimal. The coffee maker was falling apart and many of the pans looked like they had been purchased from a thrift store. There was no vent over the stove so no ventilation when cooking.Per a notice, we were not to adjust the temperature of the thermostat which was set at 72 degrees. As the bedroom was quite small, the room got very uncomfortable to sleep in and we ended up sleeping on the couch in the living room. There was also a notice that said we were responsible for taking the trash to the recycling place and that we would be charged if we didn't. Since we left before the recycling place opened, we had to bring our trash home with us.I don't mind washing dishes or even removing bedding before I leave. But not being allowed to adjust the temperature in the house and having to bring our trash somewhere that I assume would charge us was not what I would consider a vacation.
