Perfect location, lovely house.

We had a great time at the house and property, I wished we had booked just one more day! We stayed 2 nights, my husband and I, my sister and brother-in-law. The house was very nice and very clean, we had everything we needed. No complaints at all. The river is right there, just a short walk down. There is plenty of shade. We sat with our chairs in the water, then took the tubes out and floated a bit. We bbq'd one night and made a fire in the firepit on both nights and sat around listening to music, had drinks. We went to a tubing service company and floated for 2-3 hours, loved that. The beds were comfy. I let my sister take the bedroom and my husband and I took the loft, the loft has low ceilings but It's mainly to sleep or lay in bed. We liked it, slept very well. I would definitely recommend this rental, the house, property and river access was perfect! I seriously cannot think of one negative thing. We never had to contact the owners other than to say we arrived and when we left. Thank you to the owners!

Incredible!

We loved spending our long Easter weekend at this cozy home. The owners were very communicative and accommodating. The home was well stocked for items we may have needed. We loved spending our time around the fire ring and down by the river. We can’t wait to stay again!

Clean and Comfortable Home in Great Location

This is a beautiful property in a great location on the river. The home was comfortable and was absolutely spotless. It had everything we needed for our stay. It was the perfect location for our stay to fly fish. It was peaceful and the neighbors were kind and respectful. We would definitely stay here again!

Girls' River Trip - SO FUN!

This was the perfect little house for myself and 3 girlfriends. The house was stocked with everything we needed. The views were amazing. We loved having access to the river and were able to hangout there after we floated the river during the day. I can't wait to bring my family soon. Communication was great with the owners as well.

Unmatched!

We were a little nervous renting a tiny house with our 3 teenage boys (19, 17, 15) but there was no need to worry! The house is small but is laid out so well, we never felt cramped or crowded. And the access to the river was unmatched! We would most definitely come back. We loved it!!

Beautiful tiny home, on a beautiful piece of property

This is probably one of my new favorite houses to stay in. It is the cutest tiny home. Perfectly clean. My girls LOVED the loft for them to sleep in. All communication with the owners was prompt and so sweet. The property is gorgeous! The riverfront area was the perfect spot for our little ones to play in the water.

Wonderful location and adorable house!

The house is absolutely adorable and just as pictures show. The location on the river is the absolute best. Perfect to just walk down and sit in the river and relax. Only issue we had was a strong sulphur smell to the water in the house which was not the best for kids to overlook the smell to shower but that was the only thing to even improve if possible. The positioning on the property also has another house on the river. A little awkward at first with the tenants of that house thinking we were trespassing but we cleared that up ;) there is plenty of bank space and seating for both house guests. Worth the stay for sure. Would easily stay again.

If you want to vomit while showering, this is the place for you.

The sulfur smell was unbearable. Couldn’t wash dishes or hands because the smell was so bad. My kids refused to shower and literally threw up while showering from the smell. Property manager said that it’s normal and did nothing about it, however I asked the people staying in the main house if they also were experiencing this and they said no. The AC in the main house dripped the entire time and soaked the stairs and floor going up to the loft. The loft is so short you have to crawl around so don’t plan to put any adults up there. Spent a lot of money to be miserable at this property. Extremely disappointed.
