Absolutely stunning home with all the comforts of home! Loved the porches and long dock. Not the easiest to get in and out of with a larger boat or multiple cars, that’s the only thing I could say and that’s not a negative just an important detail. We definitely plan to stay again!!

The property is located at the end of the road and is very private. The house has 2 master bedroom with full bath. It was spotlessly clean and very well equipment. The furniture was very comfortable and the bed was perfect. The backyard was perfect for just sitting and watching the river. We throughly enjoyed it and we will definitely re-book for next year. We loved everything
