Such a beautiful river view

Everything was great start to finish! We had 6 ladies for a 4 night get away trip. We loved sitting on the back patio watching the bird and squirrels. The backyard is picturesque! Host was communicative. Beds were comfortable. 2 things to prepare for if you stay though! Bring toilet paper because we were only provided 2 rolls for 6 women on a 4 night trip. Also the chairs on the back patio are very uncomfortable without padding so bring cushions. We had bruises on our butts from them lol.

Perfect get away

Very clean, beds were super comfy, and the location was perfect. Great little spot to fish in the morning before the tubes start appearing. At night it was so amazing to see all the lightening bugs. And of course the floating was perfect.

Peaceful river stay

Home was clean, kitchen was well equipped. Refrigerator had an icemaker. Plenty of towels and cleaning items available. The beds were comfortable and plenty of pillows.The backyard was simple, covered deck with a table a chairs. Grss covered lawn and beautiful cypress tress providing shade. Steps leading down to the river. There is a wooden dock. I was hoping for a place to put my chair in the river water and relax, but the water is too deep there, it just drops off. Only some roots to step down on. Getting out is a challenge without any handles to pull up on. We did enjoy swimming and floating in our tubes. We were there during the week. It was very quiet and peacefull. Many turtles, ducks, and a variety of birds to watch. We saw some small mouthed bass and perch.

Mold city

I was there with four other women. We all feel awful after being there. I am severely allergic to mold. Water started coming up through the floors. The owner said it was HVAC. It appears to us to be an ongoing problem. My face swelled up and my ears ache / and one of my friends left early because of it. The owner said he was sorry we had to go through that. I believe this was a known issue before we rented.

The house is perfect for a small group. The location is amazing and the little dock is perfect to fish off of or just sit and watch the water. It is our 2nd time to stay and we will definitely be booking again. The host is easy to communicate with and quick with responses.

Long weekend looking for serene tranquility

The property inside was clean, comfortable and as presented. However, the exterior was sorely overlooked. The front lawn appeared to not having been mowed in a month and all windows are covered in thick spider webs and bugs. You can’t appreciate the view of the river and beautiful tree canopy from inside.

Great and Easy Getaway

The house was just as described and very well stocked with all of the amenities one would need. My favorite part was having my coffee on the deck by the water. The beds were comfortable. The tube rental was super close, and they were so friendly. We all enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again!

Our family (9 yo son, 16 yo daughter, hubby, & I) stayed in this quaint home for the weekend & had a fantastic time! The location couldn't have been better.
