It was nice to have a clean, quiet, and cool place to stay after being on the river all day. We enjoyed staying here. It was very convenient to lots of tube rentals. I'd definitely stay here again.

Loved this place! The river front access was great, small house but perfect for 2 couples. The little ponderosa river outfitters was walking distance from the house, they take you up river and you just float to your house! Defiantly would stay here again

Check in was easy and the closeness to a tube drop in was nice. No stairs to the river access made going to the water not as easy. Overall the stay was ok but nothing other than ordinary.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear that check-in was smooth and that you appreciated the convenient location near the tube drop-in. We understand that easier river access would have made the experience more enjoyable and we will see if there's anything we can do to make the lack of one more clear in the listing. We appreciate your stay with us and hope to have the chance to offer a more memorable experience next time.
