Gorgeous River view
We loved our stay. Clean and quiet. Had all we needed. Air fryer, hot plate, pot, pan, dishes, microwave, coffee maker, etc. Comfy bed and pillows, plenty of towels, hair dryers etc.
Loved having the grill to make some steaks, loved the firepit (that someone else had lit and had going), and the view could not be beat.
Thank you!
