Family Fellowship Gathering

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental was perfectly laid out for multiple family groups or couples. The atmosphere was very relaxing and peaceful, both inside and outside. The kitchen having two refrigerators was very convenient for a large gathering. The only regret was the water pressure was very low during our entire stay and one day we had no water at all for about 10+ hours due to a mainline break in the municipal water service. Overall, a great stay.

We loved this place! The home features wonderful location, ample room for sleeping 20 guests, large kitchen-dining areas, and outdoor space (covered patio area and patio one level above river). The location is close to the highway and a store if you need it. Additionally, you can do a loop around the river easily from here. We'll be back!

Nice stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Microwave not working right. Lot of dripped oil in the one oven that makes lot of smoke when try to use it. An electric kettle is a good idea to have in the kitchen. There is a possible leak under the kitchen sink. Also no hangers in the closets. A bed bench is advisable to all rooms.
Response from VrboOwner on 16 Dec, 2025
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that these concerns were not brought to our attention during your stay. Had we been notified, we would have promptly sent someone to address the microwave, oven, or any other issues to ensure your comfort. We appreciate your suggestions regarding the electric kettle, closet hangers, and bed benches, and we will certainly take them into consideration as we continue to improve the guest experience. We will also have our maintenance team check the kitchen sink and oven to ensure everything is in proper working order. Guest satisfaction is very important to us, and we encourage future guests to reach out during their stay so we can resolve any concerns right away.
