We visited for our annual Girlfriend Getaway weekend. We couldn’t have had a better experience. The home is extremely well cared for, clean, and the host was communicative regarding check in and property details. The property had absolutely everything we could have needed from kitchen items to kayaks and yard games. We spent the majority of our time at the river and in the yard, watching the wildlife and enjoying what nature had to offer. This property truly is a gem!

Our second stay was just as great as the first. A great house, location right on the water, large yard for games it is an awesome place to get away for a few days.
This was a really magical little spot with excellent kayaking access. Jack was extremely responsive and thoughtful as a host, and we loved our weekend!
Clean, comfortable house on a large piece of land with direct river access. Beautifully decorated. Amazing firepit, outdoor games and huge mowed yard surrounding the property. Looking forward to coming back.
Property had just about everything you needed. Very clean. Loved the little touches of thoughtfulness throughout the chalet. Excellent private location with beautiful river view. I would definitely go back!

Terry,
we are so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay at "The Nest". Come on back any time.
My family enjoyed our stay here over the Thanksgiving holiday. Everything was wonderful: clean; an over abundance of sheets, towels, pillows, and bedding; fully equipped kitchen; firewood chopped for the fire pit; kayaks ready for use; and more. We were welcome by the owner who was friendly and informative. I am looking forward to a summer stay!
We had a wonderful time enjoying the beauty of fall in this gorgeous house. Everything was perfect and all necessities were provided. We could not be more pleased!

Jack was an excellent host and his place was awesome. The check in process was easy as Jack met us at the door and provided driving instructions to his wonderful home. The home was clean and had all the main amenities you would look for. My friends and I really enjoyed the kayaks and the fire pit. We would definitely return here and loved our stay.
Perfect setting for a laid-back long weekend. The house was well provisioned and in a great spot for bird watching! Looks like a great candidate for a summer trip with the grandkids. Jack is a great host to work with.
Beautiful and charming location and very comfortable home! Ample Kayaks for the whole crew. Spent a ton of time on the river and enjoyed tons of wildlife. Can’t recommend more for a wonderful unplugged weekend!
