"The property was the perfect place for our family get together during a tough time. Enough room for everyone to hang out together or have their own space too. Can only imagine how much more wonderful in the summer it can be with the pool. The Host was great with communication and information. Just also cant say enough of being able to watch the sunrises along the river. Would definitely stay here again."

I like that the parking lot was well lit and they use a fob system to allow entry from the parking lot- it made me feel very safe when I arrived back late from the event I was attending. I will absolutely come back and stay here again. "
