Very clean, quiet, nice location with access to the river. Everything worked perfectly. Communication with the owners was timely, cordial and helpful. We didn't have any problems to be looked into but I strongly feel they would have taken care of any reasonable request. The house was perfect for our needs and we're already talking about a return trip. Pete Parsons

The entire property is well maintained and very clean, the house was spotless no issues with the doors plumbing/air/beds, they let us use the boat dock because we were there for fishing that’s was incredibly well done easy and convent getting down the driveway can be confusing but just slow down and watch where your going and it’s easy peasy, will 100% be back for our next trip there.

I visited with a friend to do some fishing. The house was very clean, well equipped, and comfortable. The host was so accommodating, inviting us to use the property as if it was our own. His dock is the nicest on the entire river! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Thanks Scott!

If you want peace and quiet….you’ve found it. The house is very comfortable and supplied well with linens, towels, etc. Scott is very accessible when needed. He was sincerely concerned when he found out we had a medical issue; he checked on us regularly during our stay. You don’t find that kind of people every day.
