Robin's Nest Review
Boat Dock: serviceable but needs repair--tie down cleats missing or are pulling out of wood. For older men like me, steps are needed between upper and lower docks. Lighting needed on dock. Everything else was great. Most supplies were on hand and easy to find. Very enjoyable stay!

Great Location
The house was perfect for the six of us. Clean, comfortable and great views of the river. Beautiful sunrises. Convenient location to all of the things we wanted to do.. but you are going to want a boat!

Grindstone Vacation
Excellent choice. Beautiful property, well furnished. The water in the Bay in front of the property was always calm even on windy days. Great place for tubing and swimming. The dock was easy to get into with our 22 foot boat and Clayton was just a few minute trip across the river. Nice quiet neighborhood.
