What a lovely home right on the river. Super nice inside, great kitchen fully ready for family meals and then there is the back porch to relax on, fireflies to watch and the river to sit by. We will be back many times I am sure

Great location and the bedrooms were nice. Really enjoyed the kitchen space. Was beautiful in the fall and would be fabulous during warmer weather. The place was clean but a little dusty- that's our only critique!

Perfect little house at a great location on the river. Spent the day floating in front and relaxing while the teens went to Schlitterbahn. House is clean and well equipped in the kitchen. Firepit was perfect for S'mores.
