Our stay at the Great River House was a truly memorable experience. Our children loved splashing around in the shallow children's end of the pool, playing in the yard and the very kid friendly staff. We loved the beautiful decor, layout of the house, extremely professional and attentive staff, and DELICIOUS meals. It was amazing how relaxed we were able to feel on this vacation with 2 small kids. We didn't lift a finger! This was the perfect family vacation home and we plan on coming back every year.

Thank you for an unbelievable vacation!! From the moment we arrived to the moment we very sadly and reluctantly left, we felt like we were truly on vacation -- a rare occurence with four children in tow. The staff were all amazing...great with the children, accomodating all our needs and requests and generally welcoming and lovely. The house was beautiful and comfortable and we felt instantly at home. We simply can't wait to return!! Thank you for everything. The Benn Family
