The house was clean and ready for our stay. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. They even had a hair dryer and curling iron in the bathroom. There were family games and tubes for us to use in the River. We enjoyed our stay!

The cottage was cute, but the front porch and back patio needs serious cleaning, the windows/screens filled with cobwebs, and the coffee maker had old coffee in the carafe. But the inside was clean and we enjoyed ourselves.
