This home was a perfect location for a group of long-time friends to gather for a good catch-up session. Comfortable, well-equipped, quiet but not super-secluded. The sunsets were beautiful and there were plenty of spots to sit enjoy it. A

Good size house and very clean. The property does have a lot of bugs and flies. Not much crabs if you're looking to crab off the dock. Property is close to supermarket and various restaurants.

We enjoyed our stay at this clean and beautiful home. We loved eating meals in the sun room and playing shuffleboard in the game room. We spent a lot of time kayaking, paddle boarding, and fishing. The water was a little murky for some of the adults to swim in, but the children still swam in it. The sunsets were amazing every night.

My group of friends has stayed at this house twice now, once over NYE and now for a summer long weekend. The house has a great layout for multiple couples to spread out and all have some space. We rented kayaks and were able to have them dropped off prior to check in with permission from the owner.

Wonderful vacation
This was definitely one of the best fun vacations we’ve had in many many years. The location was excellent, you could walk out the back door and write into the river and swim all day. The water was refreshing and clean. We had inner tubes and just floated out there. We came in and made dinner and relaxed with the children, everything we needed was there. We will definitely consider for next year.

Beautiful spring weekend
Everything was great, the space. We would love to stay there again. I would just say the outside furniture was a little dirty but that’s completely understandable with outside wildlife around! But we would absolutely stay there again!
