Situated between 2nd & 3rd crossing on River Road, Capri is located at `Fernweh Riverfront` - the latest rental offering to hit River Road. Formerly known as `Billy Goat`s Gruff,` the entire property is under new ownership & eager to welcome our valued guests. Access to the amenities at our sister property, Fernweh Hillside, is available for all guests. Located just across River Road, Fernweh Hillside is a collection of white cottages behind the former Koozie’s.

Parking for Capri is TANDEM and in a shared driveway. Guests at Capri should park right in front of the old double wood doors to the left of the stairs leading to Palisade. Vehicles should hug the retaining wall to the left to allow any guests at Palisade to fully utilize their side of the driveway on the right. Vehicles should not extend past the right side retaining wall to allow for all guests to easily enter and exit the property.

A 3rd space has been added and is located on the front lawn. Smaller vehicles should park on the grass in between the boulders. The parking space will be refinished and better defined in the future.

Fernweh Riverfront is home to 6 private rentals onsite and all available amenities are shared, including riverfront access.

Liked: Check-in, communication
Disliked: Listing accuracy
This property was not anything like what the pictures showed. The house is 2 story and the upstairs is a separate rental which created noise and activity. There are other rentals stacked next to the house and all share the same driveway and parking which was difficult. Arriving there, the front porch and all bathrooms had roaches and bugs in them. The bunk room had wasps in it and had several live wasps in the house throughout the weekend. The kids that slept in that room also had bites all over their arms and legs from the beds. The supplies were limited, and didn’t even have laundry soap for the washing machine. The house is listed as non-pet approved property but has a cat that lives on the patio (not mentioned). It was expensive and not worth what we payed. We will not rent again.
