Room Descriptions:
Walk into the house straight into the newly added master bedroom with master bath. Straight into bed with your comfortable view of the river to begin your relaxing stay.
Bunk (twin over queen) bedroom and bathroom are just off of the living room. The second king bed is located in the loft that overlooks the living room

The neighboring property is Virgil's Cabin. Book both, and bring friends! Grandpa and Virgil were best friends. They knew what they were doing.
