Great weekend trip
Very comfortable stay for a family (8 adults, 1 child) weekend trip. I was pleasantly suprised with how clean the property was and the accommodations provided. Plenty to do (air hockey was a hit, hot tub, kayaks, tubes) AND great cooking equipment. There was even a bbq smoker present. The river was spectacular and there were so many places to sit and enjoy the view. I would absolutely rent here again. Thanks Teresa for a wonderful, much needed, family vacation.

Fun
It was great for five, but with two toilets and one working shower, it really can’t accommodate 14. Jacuzzi over the river was great. Some updated linens would be an easy upgrade. There was no dishwasher detergent or laundry soap. Location was ideal.
