Great weekend staycation!

We had a lovely stay at the River Road Retreat. The home is well equipped with kitchen tools, pool accessories, toiletries and comfy beds. The use of the pool, hot tub, kayaks and large screened deck made for many great memories. Communication was fast and helpful with the hosts and the location was close to the beach and restaurants yet we felt like it was private and peaceful. We loved our stay here and are already discussing our return!

By far, the best Vrbo house experience I’ve ever had!!! I was so relieved the owner doesn’t make the tenants wash sheets, vacuum and basically do all the work you’re paying the cleaning company to do before you leave. Gorgeous house, very clean, easy to get into, loved the pool, owner responded very quickly to anything I asked. We had a great time. I hope we can rent this house again soon.

River Road Retreat Review

Great stay at the River Road Retreat. We only stayed 2 nights, but it was a great experience. House was very nice and well kept on both the outside and inside. Wish we could’ve experienced it for longer! Great location and close to various beaches in the area. Overall a really good time. Would stay there again for sure.
