Gramp's getaway. This is hands down the best hidden gem I've come across. It was clean, private and fishing right off the River. It is close to the bridge,so you may have some traffic sound, but it didn't bother me and I slept like a baby. It was a great place to relax and visit kids and grandkids. I plan on making this a regular place to book when I'm in town.

The house was very clean and ready for our arrival. The property is relatively isolated so you have space to play. Our son was fishing as soon as he got out of the car.

Everything was great. Clean, full kitchen and access to all streaming services. The vehicles crossing the bridge was alerting but became calming after a few hours.

Peaceful getaway

The house was very clean, comfortable, and we loved being on the water, sitting out by the fire at night. It had the perfect amount of solitude, while not being too far away from plenty of things to see and do. We loved it and would love to come back!

Very nice historic home on the river. Very clean and well maintained. Only small complaint is the driveway turning off of the main road is pretty steep and has a blind spot when leaving.
