Excellent Stay At Riverview.

I rented this house as a birthday weekend getaway for my wife and I. The pictures do not do the property or the property view justice. It is an absolutely stunning lake front property with amazing views, and ample outdoor space. I highly recommend staying here. Host was excellent and communicated with us for everything that we needed.

The house was well in order. All the kitchen necessities were well above average. The view was better than we imagined. Perfectly located between Essex and Chester among other cute towns. The property manager was very helpful with everything. 😊
