I have to give this property a 5 STAR . Very clean and equipped as well as calming effect with the water flowing over the rocks in the river below. Something for all ages from game room,tubing or fishing right outside.The family time was excellent here. Already want to return and just left. Thanks for a great place to stay!!

Everything was very clean and neat. Kitchen oven mitts need to be washed, and outside chair cushions need a thorough cleaning but otherwise spotless, roomy and comfortable!
