Peaceful escape
We enjoyed our stay despite the rain. I needed to get away from work and recharge and this was the perfect place to do so. Having the river so close is amazing and my husband caught and released a fish. The dogs had a good time too. We would definitely stay here again.

GORGEOUS Family Reunion for 3 Generations & pups
This River Haven House is an absolutely breathtaking property! Grandparents (in their 80s) enjoyed walking down to the river every morning & enjoying riverfront view on the hammock. Grandkids loved hanging out in the HUGE game room in the garage with ping pong & foosball tables. Pups loved running on the big grassy area. We just wished we picked a cooler season, so we can enjoy the incredible yard more. And there a heavenly chicken coop on site nestled by a bamboo forest and water fountain. Highlight of our stay was when property manager asked to come by to feed chickens and brought us FRESH EGGS!!! Love the "from farm to table" experience.

Gorgeous property
We spent a very hot weekend here and enjoyed every minute. The property was super clean and had everything needed to make it fun for all ages. The lush green landscaping made it feel like a luxury resort. We would definitely want to visit again soon.
