It's always nice to stay here at the Rio Vista! The view of the confluence of the rivers is perfect and we were able to see the two fawns on the island. I am constantly upset by the fact that when you turn the tv on it goes to Fox News. This is NOT a news station, but pure propaganda.

You just can’t beat being right by the river. We enjoyed sitting out on our balcony and relaxing to the sound of the river! It’s also nice that everything in town is walking distance!!
