My spouse and I wanted to get-away after Christmas, but before the CPA tax season starts. This was a great house. Quiet and homey. We had a small maintenance issue with the house and owner came by right away to fix. Would recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The house was clean, well-maintained, and very comfortable—perfect for a relaxing getaway. One of our favorite features was the loft, which offered a peaceful view of the river and made for a great reading or beverage spot throughout the day.The kitchen was impressively stocked with everything we needed to prepare full meals, from cookware to utensils and a few common pantry basics. It made cooking easy and enjoyable, especially with the outdoor setup. We especially appreciated the combination gas/charcoal grill and the Blackstone griddle—ideal for grilling dinners and making breakfast outside.Overall, the home was thoughtfully equipped and made for a smooth, enjoyable experience.

A little place to find some peace

Came out with my teenage kids. The house is well stocked with everything you need to cook, a nice blackstone and grill. Place was clean and inviting. There are oils and nice shampoos and conditioners. Just an overall good stay.
