Outside deck is nice with plenty of space. Pictures of the house is exactly how it is. Plenty of room to spread out. Rooms do get pretty bright once the sun comes out. Overall nice stay.

Awesome property!

Amazing location right on the river! Really enjoyed that we could just walk out the house and right down to the river to hang out. Also loved that the kids could tube down the river and exit right in the backyard. House was very clean and looked recently updated. Was very surprised by how well stocked the house was. I have gotten used to taking all of my own cooking utensils and pots/pans when staying at rental properties because it can be really hit or miss with what the house has, but this house had EVERYTHING! Overall everyone in our group loved this house and we are already anticipating our stay here next year!

Unclean home - I wouldn’t recommend staying

The location of the property is in a convenient, being close to town but the property and home is very unkept and dirty. The pictures on the listing is nothing like the home itself. Most of the doors do not open more than halfway, the beds are very uncomfortable and the house itself appeared to not have been cleaned. The river access is okay if you plan on sitting on the patio but not if you have children who want to play in the water.

The location was great on the river.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a large family gathering, the deck on the back of the house was nice, as well as the area down by the river. The house was in fair condition, most everyone complained about the beds. I had to fix one of the bed frames because the leg was missing, and it was unbearable to sleep on. There were cockroaches in the kitchen cabinets and several on the floor and the floor wasn't clean. There were plenty of towels but could have more blankets available. If this house was updated with beds and more setting in the living room, I would give it a higher rating.

Great location that needs updating.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great communication with the property management! The house needs to be updated. There were missing knobs in kitchen. Most small appliances didn’t have all its parts. Ceiling fan in upstairs was very loud. Lights were out in some of the other ceiling fans. Bathroom floor upstairs has a soft spot that feels like you will go through the floor.

Fun riverfront home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Nice home in a great location with easy access to the river. A bit of wear and tear and some maintenance issues prevent me from giving it a 5-star review. However, it is still a suitable property if you know what to expect. Accepting dogs is a huge plus! A/C needed to be more balanced in the home as keeping the kitchen and living room cool was impossible sometimes. The dishwasher did not work, and there is a significant trip and injury hazard where the living room meets the added-on rec space as the flooring transition strip was completely unsecured.

Park & Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is AMAZING! If you are looking for a place to arrive to & keep your vehicle parked the whole time, THIS is the one!Access to the river is right down the hill in the back yard as shown & described. It’s perfect to put your chairs in with good rocks for plenty of chairs to sit on. We had at least 8 of us in chairs, spread out down there. The hill back up is a doozy, unless you’re in shape LOL.The tube rental place is a short 1 min walk. Rio provides the black, old school tubes. With or without bottoms. They will cut out bottoms if you don’t want one so be sure to just ask. Driveway seems super sketchy right when you get there, but we had no issues & didn’t feel that River Road traffic was an issue at all. However, we were there for a good time & likely didn’t pay attention. Would def recommend & stay again.

Beautiful Property

We enjoyed our stay. This property is really beautiful and the house is nice. We stayed at the end of the season. There were a few things that needed to be fixed in the restroom that I chalk up to our timing. The house is really nice and the area is good and not too busy. The communication with the owner was fabulous and timely. I recommend a stay here and I appreciate the openness of the owner to add an extra day at the last minute.
