This place is amazing! We can't say enough good things about it, So very clean, no detail overlooked, from the bathroom through kitchen and living area, they have everything not to mention being on the river with a dock. The hosts are the kindest people you could meet, very accommodating and no problem is too big or small, ask me I know, when I locked us out the very first night! This is our yearly vacation spot for next year any hopefully many more!Thank you Rodney and Diane!

Very functional-able for catching up with friends! So many fun things for the teens to do while the adults got to catch-up! Love the layout of the house but having doors on the rooms would have been nice. Everything else was perfect!
