Great Place to Stay on False River

Beautiful VRBO rental. The beds were extremely comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and the living areas were comfy and had plenty of seating for our group of eight long time friends. I would highly recommend “Drake on the Lake” to anyone wanting a getaway on the River!
