This was a perfect location for our girl’s weekend away. Lots of nearby wine tasting, restaurants and shops. The home was perfectly clean and comfortable for the four of us. We’re hoping to make this an annual destination.

We loved the porch and the private river access the most! It was so great to be on the river and enjoy the trees surrounding the deck. The big table outside was great for a group dinner. The house was clean, and when we had a problem with the coffee maker, they brought us a new one (and fresh coffee) within an hour. I'd stay again!

we are 4 ladies who stayed here. The house was very comfortable, the beds were great, the hot tub was exactly what we wanted. The appliances worked well as did the TV. We plan to stay here again at a future date!

We loved staying by the river at this location! It was a super close walk to a hidden beach we hadn’t known about. And only 10 minutes to town. The house was very clean and the kitchen well-stocked. Master bedroom was beautiful. Note there are only 1.5 bathrooms, so showering was a little tight for a group of 6.

This is really a pretty spot with great river access. Just a couple things to keep in mind: Bring your own cutting board if you will be doing any kind of cooking involving cutting. Also, the neighbor to the left as you look at the house from the street, kept the porch light on all night - this shines into the main bedroom, and there are no drapes, so I couldn't sleep well. The outside garbage cans were full when we got there, so we had trouble putting our trash out.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 Aug 2021
Thank you for the feedback Carolyn! We've added additional cutting boards and my apologies for the full garbage cans! I will also ask the neighbor if they wouldn't mind adding a timer to their backyard light. We hope to welcome you back sometime soon!
This spot is perfect for those who are hosting or participating at an event at the Villa Chanticleer, such as a wedding. The Villa is only a short drive away.
Amenities in the home are plentiful, with a beautifully upgraded kitchen, spacious deck, and various sleeping arrangements.
Getting into the nitty gritty, the sofa bed and the master bedroom are in the same room, but there is a divider in the form of a curtain, so both parties can have privacy. Parking is good for up to 3 cars (1 in front of the house, 2 in the car port) but if you have more, they can park in the triangle at the end of the road. Not too far.
The downsides we're few and far between. The only real downside is the 1.5 baths. If you are planning to sleep 8, some planning might be required to make sure everyone has a shower. The hot water never ran out, though.
Overall, great place to stay!
