Had a wonderful stay with family here. It had some minor issues (doors sticking or not closing), but was overall a fantastic condo for a small group or family to be right on the river and near so much of the activities in town. Highly recommend!!

Getaway stay

The area is beautiful and the weather was perfect. Betty’s and The Hofbrau had the best food. The rental house had everything we needed and was clean. The only discrepancy was the listing said there was a 1/2 bath but there wasn’t. And it was in a great, walkable area.
