Open and rustic home in the country, yet close to town. Nice river views and sounds! We enjoyed the large gathering areas in the home and the hot tub outdoors. Very clean and well equipped and appointed. I recommend this stay if you’re in the area!

Thanksgiving stay

My family of 7+2 grandparents stayed here for four nights over Thanksgiving weekend. The place was excellent, clean, well furnished, and Sarah was super fast to communicate, as we had a few questions. I would highly recommend!

Holiday with Family

We rented this home so that I could prepare a meal for my adult daughters, and in addition ended up hosting my wife’s family for Thanksgiving as well. The home itself is rustic, and is set in a beautifully remote spot on a river. There are plenty of restaurants and multiple places to shop for groceries close by. The interior of the home has been nicely updated, has a lovely feel and is perfect for hosting. The kitchen is incredible. It has absolutely everything you need to prepare any type of meal. As the primary cook, I LOVED IT! My wife and I stayed in the home with my sister-in-law with my daughters also staying at different times. The three bedrooms are very comfortable and the bathrooms were well appointed, clean and modern. We did not get to take advantage of the large and well equipped patio area due to the weather, but it looked impressive. We will definitely keep this home in mind for future visits.
