We had an amazing stay with friends at this eclectic river house. It is located on a very quiet road with lots of privacy.
Plenty of space with three bathrooms and spread out so everyone had plenty of space.
The kitchen is fully equiped and everything we needed.
The view from the back balcony was perfect. At dusk saw many deer and so peaceful.
I would highly recommend this house.
We will be back for sure
We had a wonderful stay and loved the home and the location on the Medina river. My only feedback would be to make it a little more explicit in the listing that the back porch hangs over a steep cliff with relatively low railings. it was referenced in the liability release but it would be good to include in the listing so folks traveling with small children (like us) are aware at the time of booking. Including a picture of the home from the River could suffice. We were wary of that the whole time because of our fearless 1 year old but all in all we enjoyed the home, the field for running around and the proximity to the river and walking trails.
