We had a great stay. The property is clean and well stocked, tons of space for our dogs to walk outside. All our questions were answered promptly. We will definitely be looking to book again.
We recently stayed here for a few nights while our floors at home were being done and we all felt very comfortable and relaxed. The home was very bright with big windows and welcoming. The beds were very comfortable to our liking. We only took a few walks down to the river due to the weather being cold but it was nice being able to do that and to see the river from the house window. We also liked the privacy with the location of the house. We highly recommend the stay here. We also appricate that we were able to bring our dogs along instead of throwing them in a kennel. The house was extremely clean and we seriously felt like we were at home away from home. Thank you for the stay!!! welcoming
The host was very communicative throughout the process and helped us to check-in without any worries. The home came with great amenities such as a backdoor patio and outdoor grill. The host also did a great job in leaving the home to be sparkling clean for our stay. Would recommend.
The location is perfect, and the house exceeded all my expectations, it was spotless and newly redone and the kitchen was beautiful and well stocked. The beds and sheets and towels were all comfortable and pristine, and every detail was great. The yard is lovely, and there’s a short scramble through the woods in the back down to the river which was breathtaking. The host was responsive and helpful, and went above and beyond by checking in to make sure the heat was working the day we arrived because it had suddenly gotten cold overnight. Throughout our stay he was very quick to respond to all questions. The space is totally private and well set up. I can’t say enough good things, I feel so lucky that we found this place, it was absolutely perfect.

Cozy cabin
The house was nice, had everythig we needed. It was well stocked with towels and bedding. The kitchen provided a nice selection of spices and other small necessities. The outside of the house had a lot of stuff laying around and looked messy. The process before we checked in was a pain. Had to fill out multiple forms, was charged a processing fee to leave a deposit and was told any person over 5 was an additional charge. It was a last minute booking because of a death in the family and had no option to cancel the booking. The property manager was responsive and professional but because of all the fees after booking i will not book with this company again.

Gross House
As we arrived at the rental property, we were greeted by the cleaning staff. They were very rude and not welcoming whatsoever. Once we entered the property, we opened the pull out couches which were full of bugs and dirt. As we made our way through the house, we noticed that the floors were not cleaned (dirt smears and piles dead insects). As a result of the lack of cleanliness in the pull out couches/beds we were forced to purchase a blow up mattress to accommodate our guests. We woke up Saturday with the intention of having some coffee before our trip down the river, only to find that the coffee maker was full of maggots and flies. That night, after our trip, we went to make dinner on the gas grill only to find out there was no gas. In addition, the 1 provided roll of toilet paper, and 1 provided trash bag were significantly less than would be expected of a property that was well aware that 9 people would be staying with them. I would not recommend staying here. Our experience was not at all what we were expecting.
The property is quiet, secluded, and peaceful. The river is a five minute hike down from the back of the house, and we had a nice swim.
The backyard is large and we used the provided firewood to build a small fire and roast some s'mores.
The house itself was modern and well kept.
The only thing to be aware of is that there is only air conditioning in one of the three bedrooms. Other than that the place is amazing.
