Ring of fire eclipse trip

Suited our needs...just a bit over priced for the sleeping arrangements, my husband and his brother are 6' plus and the beds are short...also needed utensils and knives for the kitchen. Overall, we enjoyed our stay though! Would consider another trip there.

About the host

Hosted by Angie Kauffman

We are from San Antonio but love our little weekend getaway on the river!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love the minute we stepped foot on this property. It was everything we were looking for!

What makes this property unique

Nature, the views, private river access... it's not hard to see why we love sitting on our porch, sipping our coffee (or beer depending on the time of day), and watching the abundent amount of deer playing by our river.
