BUSY and NOISY main road. TINY yard with limited parking and movement for kids. (I'd recommend fencing for slightly more safety.) NO grill, other than chiminea. All tiny bedrooms upstairs. Older uncomfortable sitting areas inside. Only two tv's. Small counter-top ice maker. Dead bugs inside home. Great job making photos of area look more appealing. More accurate description of location and surroundings should be given. Would not recommend for peaceful family getaway.

Gina-- we feel that the description and pictures represent the property exactly as it is. Previous guest have noted they love the location of this peaceful, riverfront property as well as the amenities provided. The listing states the cabin has a barbeque grill. It's located right off the deck. We encourage guest that have specific questions or needs to inquire with us before booking so we can answer anything that might be in question.
