Weekend getaway

Great location on the river, and the proximity to town is nice. The sand beach is a bonus for kids to play in the river, and parking the boat.

Exceeded our Expectations

This home far exceeded our expectations in every regard. It was very clean and the beds and linens were beyond comfortable. The beach was great and the river was slow and shallow enough for little ones. The host was helpful and very easy to communicate with. We would definitely stay again!

Perfect!

Very clean and spacious cabin with great views on upper and lower decks. Great beach access and good people watching since it’s along the float route. Check in and out processes were very simple and the host did a great job of being thorough with the instructions and directions on how to get there. We will definitely be back!

The house was great for our group that included four adults and children from ages 5 to 17. The young ones enjoyed the beach and the older ones liked the hammock. We floated 6 miles and the house was a little over 4 miles in. It was perfect for a break and restocking food and beverages.

Eclipse getaway

We stayed here with family to see the eclipse. The owners left a lovely basket to welcome us which was a very nice touch. The space easily held our group of 8. It was right on the Current River and had a beautiful deck to relax on. The hammock and fire pit were particularly enjoyable. The owners sent directions which were very helpful as google maps had trouble with the location.
