I was a great property with beautiful views of the river. The only thing was that the hot tub was not ready to go.

The home was very nice and had everything we needed. We were a little disappointed to learn that the hot tub was not working. Had we known sooner, we would probably have tried to change our reservations but there wasn't enough time to make that happen.

Thank you for your feedback. I’m so glad you enjoyed the home and found it had everything you needed. I had expected to have the hot tub repaired in time for your stay, but unfortunately the necessary parts were delayed. I truly appreciate your kindness and understanding, and I’m grateful you still chose to spend time together here with your friends. I hope your stay at Blue Heron Oar’asis created lasting memories, and I’d love the opportunity to welcome you back.
