Amazing!
Everything was beyond perfect! The house and the location were amazing. We stayed there during the cloudy winter and it was still beautiful. We parked our car and walked everywhere. We have stayed in many rentals in the area and this was by far the best!

Wonderful weekend getaway
The family needed to recharge and reset! We had a wonderful stay, the big bay window was perfect to watch the river from. The bedrooms were perfect and big enough for the three of us and our chocolate lab. We will definitely be back!
