Property was very nice. There were people swimming and launching/taking out canoes continuously throughout the day in front of us so not so private. Beds are not very comfortable so I recommend bringing a mattress topper. Everything inside cabin was accessible and very nice. Plenty of accessories available

Beautiful view of the river, well maintained property. Host was extremely responsive. One thing to note is that the only coffeemaker in the house is a single cup Keurig. Also, the river is not easily accessible. You have to jump down a bank, then wade through mud. We were able to easily access the river by going to the left of the property.

It is a relaxing stay. Deer streaming out of the woods to the green grasses along the river. Muskrats swimming in the river. Fishing if you like that sort of activity. Largest TV I've found Vrboing and easy to use.
