This place is amazing! It is huge! We had 19 people and didn't feel crowded at all. Not only was there a great room for all of us to gather, but other nooks for smaller groups. And the kitchen table seats 18 people and has 2 refrigerators. Although the weather was cold and snowy, River House was cozy and warm. Host was very quick to respond to queries. Grocery store really close by.

Stayed here for the weekend for a family wedding that was in the area. Place was very clean upon checking in and had no issues while there. The house is large and located right next to a fishing stream. Very peaceful and quiet setting. The owner is quick to respond to questions. So glad we stayed here.

Great weekend getaway

We had a great time at the river house. Beautiful setting on the river, plenty of space, and lots to do. The covered outdoors area, fire pit, grill, pickleball / shuffle board court, and wide open back yard made it easy to spend most of our time having fun outside. Definitely recommend!

The kitchen was well equipped. It would be helpful to have a Keurig in addition to the coffee maker. The other item we missed was a mixer. It was wonderful having two refrigerators! Because of the sudden change in temperature, we couldn’t find instructions on how to manage the heat! Elvin did respond to our calls about it quickly.

Great spot to stay, very convenient location to wedding venue. Enjoyed the back porch and kitchen to visit. Bedroom setup was perfect for our multi/family stay (3 couples, 1 young child). 2 1/2 baths worked well too. Elvin’s communication was just fine!
