Wonderful River Getaway
Our family (5 adults & 7 kids ages 4-10) stayed for 3 nights for a spring break getaway. If you’re looking for a quiet trip to enjoy nature but still close to other attractions this is a great option! The house was beautifully decorated. Love the view from the deck & how the fire pit sits down close to the water. The location had a large island on the other side of the river that we canoed the kids to & spent several hours fishing and exploring. The kitchen was fully stocked & great to have full bathrooms in each bedroom. Communication w owners was great & responsive. The reason for 4 stars and not 5 was a couple things. Although this property has a hot tub, it is small and ran off a 120v receptacle. It was only 85 degrees our first day and took 48 hours to reach 100 degrees. The kids were fine, but if you’re wanting it for adults, it will be disappointing. In addition, we aren’t sure if chemicals are used to treat it. There were no chlorine tablets in the floating dispenser and didn’t feel or smell like it was regularly treated. After one use, the water was visibly not clean, there was a film on the inside of the tub and it smelled like mildew. The grill bottom was covered w burnt grease & its pan was filled full & caused several grease fires (we cleaned pan). The construction is new but many fixtures & handles were loose and kept falling off. There are also many small trees sticking up from ground all around where land was cleared that we all tripped over many times.

River get away
Beautiful secluded property on the river. Layout is great for families to have quiet sleeping space away from the family space. All private bath rooms were great for our older kids. Kitchen was well stocked with cookware and the availability of spices was very nice. Paper towels and dish soap were on site and plenty for our 3 day stay. The forecast was for 5 inches of snow, and the owner ensured salt and a shovel were on site which was really nice. The deck and outside gas fireplace area were amazing and we booked again for the summer when we can enjoy the river. The house was very clean and very nicely decorated, new construction. The owners were very responsive to questions and ensured the hot tub was ready for use despite the cold. Great family get away for our older kids.
