This property says it sleeps 12 people, but there are only five beds. The pictures showed six beds, but one was shown twice. This house is excellent and we will rent it again.

Great Place to Vacation

The duplex was wonderful for our family vacation! We came from three states, and enjoyed the river, the large porch for gatherings, the beauty of the area, and the duplex had all the amenities of home. The owner was very helpful and their family has a winery nearby that we were able to visit and purchase some great wine. This is definitely a place to take family and friends. Our family would like to come back and spend another great long weekend.

We had 6 adults and 6 kids and the property and setup was perfect - families could all be together or enjoy alone time. Our house was also close to White Water Rafting - which was an awesome experience! Tim (owner) was very easy to work with and very responsive. We would definitely stay here again.

So clean! Felt at home immediately.Loved the layout. We could eat on one side of the house and play games on the other side.Temperatures have been high, but we felt great in the screen-in porch. I hope this house is always available when we go whitewater rafting on the Ocoee.

Small family gathering

The 4 bedrooms and 2 kitchens was great as we had a small gathering of about 6 people and we prepared on one side and ate on the other. The covered porch was fantastic. It rained, and rained and rained, but it was still beautiful. Would stay again! The steps to the river are many, and steep, but beautiful.

Wonderful accommodation for nearby wedding location
