We were so impressed with this property, it exceeded our expectations. We had two families staying there and there was so much space for us all. We could have time together and also our own space as needed. The views of the river are spectacular! The house has every modern comfort you could want. We will definitely be booking this for our next family stay! Amazing property!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful and spacious house! The breathtaking views were absolutely stunning. The property had all the appliances we needed in the kitchen, which was incredibly helpful. The only issue we encountered was that the dryer machine wasn't working, and we did notice a few ticks on the property. It would be great if there was a more thorough cleaning to address this. Other than that, everything else was fantastic. Highly recommend!
