September 2025 5.00We had an absolutely amazing stay at this property! The house was very spacious and had everything we needed for a comfortable getaway. The highlight was definitely the river view backyard – the early morning view was breathtaking, and the evenings by the fire pit were perfect. There was plenty of parking space, which made things so convenient for our group. The walk-out basement was a great touch, and the views from the family room, kitchen, and the basement were simply stunning. The home was peaceful and quiet, making it the ideal spot to relax and recharge. Although the jacuzzi was available (we didn’t get a chance to use it), it’s another great feature that makes this place even more special. Overall, this stay exceeded our expectations. We’re already planning to come back again – highly recommended!

July 2025 5.00Our family had last minute plans to be together for our dad’s 82nd birthday, and this was the perfect place for us to gather and make meaningful memories together. The home is beautiful, spacious, and fit all of us comfortably. Highly recommend!

July 2025 5.00This was such a great place for our family reunion! We had the best time and there’s so many great restaurants just a 5 minute drive from the house. If I have one piece of feedback, it would be to not charge 300 dollars per pet, but instead if there are additional cleaning fees due to a pet charging after. That fee seems very high considering any additional person is only 30 dollars. Because of that price point, we had to make pet sitting arrangements. Other than that, truly NO NOTES! Such a beautiful and relaxing escape. :) thank you!

July 2025 5.00this is a beautiful, big home, with spectacular views of the river. the house was well appointed, and had everything we needed. We had eight guys for a golf trip, and there was plenty of space for everyone! The host was responsive, helpful, and easy to work with. I highly recommend staying at this AirBNB.
