Very nice cabin in the middle of town. Huge hard with nice fire pit, BBQ grill, and lots of seating. The host does a nice job communicating and providing ideas on what to do in the area. Several rooms and areas were locked and off limits, which is fine. There was plenty space for our group of 5.

We reserved a night to host a birthday party sleepover for my teen daughter. The outdoor space is scenic, spacious, and relaxing. The kids loved having a campfire, spending time outside, and snuggling up to watch a couple of DVDs at the end of the night. Cal was immediately responsive to all of my messages and it was a great space for our needs.

We had a great stay in this house. There was plenty of room for four grown men. The location was very close to Lacoma Golf Course where we played and just across the river from the casino. I met the owner and he was very nice. Thanks for helping make our vacation awesome!

Great property, plenty of room for everyone in our group to stay. A well equipped kitchen and the yard space (weather permitting) were highlights. Good location minutes away from activities across the river as well.

We had such an amazing yoga retreat at the vrbo. The house was great - yard was even more beautiful live than the photos. Plenty of space all around. Cal was incredibly helpful - even setting up the projector for us within like 5 mins of asking. Great all around. 10 mins drive from all the awesome outdoor hikes and boats etc. just perfect!

Host was very responsive to all questions. Property easily fits 2 cars in the driveway, front to back. The outdoor space was great for a small child with us to run and play. We did not utilize anything outdoors except the grassy lawn. AC units worked well in all rooms. Beds were comfy. The kitchen was spacious and there are plenty of places to sit in the 2 living rooms and all seasons porch.
