Great place to stay for large family. We were 11 people and we all slept comfortably. The house is well equipped with a nice view of the river. Just a short drive to White Pass for some lovely skiing. We would definitely stay again! Thank you!
You cannot go wrong staying here. Beautiful home and surrounding area! The hosts were easy to communicate with and answered any questions I had quickly. I stayed during the winter as it's a 35 minute drive to White Pass, but a stay here any time of the year would be incredible! Thank you!
This is the most beautiful house. The hosts were wonderful and attentive. We had the best family ski weekend. Huge thank you to Anastasia and Natalia for sharing their home.
We had a wonderful stay at the river house! It was peaceful and beautiful. The hosts were always responsive. The house had everything we needed. We would absolutely visit again!
We stayed for a weekend and had a great time. The property is clean and well maintained with lots of space for relaxing by the river. Will stay again, for sure!

We love hearing you were able to enjoy time relaxing by the river and appreciate the kind feedback so very much. Your group was a pleasure to host! We’d love to host you again!
Spectacular riverfront home. Well maintained and very comfortable. Sitting right above the river, listening to the running water and surrounded by mountains is as perfect a location as I can imagine. Heating and cooling system worked well. Mattresses were very comfortable and kitchen was well appointed.

We’re so glad your group got to soak up the river and mountain views ❤️ thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful feedback. We’d love to have you back!
The photos taken of this river side view does not serve it justice. You will have to see the view in person. Everything regarding the stay was more than acceptable. I would recommend this stay to anyone whose going to visit this beautiful area.

Thank you so much for the kind words! So glad you were able to appreciate the views- we agree, there aren't pictures that do it justice, and love to hear you enjoyed your stay!
Love the views and spacious rooms. A few sugestions: found chips in 1 bowl &1 tall glass; 5 of the spices were empty, trays under burners were very greasy, dirty & smoked; microwave plate doesn't turn; shower instructions in master were wrong; one leg on coffee table was held on by 2 screws at an angle. We bought screws and screw driver to repare it. Our toddler really enjoyed your children's books! Windows were dirty Gas fireplace only worked 2 of 6 nights.
This beautiful home was so comfortable for our family. Fully appointed with everything you needed in the kitchen, towels etc. The views are spectacular. Plenty of spaces to sit and relax and spread out. Owners were super responsive and made check in a breeze. Would definitely stay again!
Property was exactly as specified. Plenty of room for everyone (11 Adults, 1 small child), and we all had a great time. Check-in and Check-out process were seamlessly easy, hosts were communicative, and the property is in a fantastic area. We would 100% stay again =)
We stayed at The River House to have quick access to the mountain. There was 4 adults and 4 kids staying at the house which offered a great layout and plenty of space for everyone. The hosts communicated very well and everything was as they had explained in the listing. It was clean and comfortable and THE VIEW!
