We really enjoyed our stay! The host, Michelle, put a lot of thought into the house. So many little touches that made a big impression. The game table and massage chair were amazing! Loved the view and the back yard. We could let our dog run around. Even tried fishing. Definitely recommend!

Thank you! I'm so glad the little touches landed — and that the massage chair and game table got some love. Sounds like the pups had a blast out back too. Hope to host you again for another fishing trip soon!

Has everything you need

House was great and the host provided everything plus more that you would need. Being on the river provided a great place to just sit and relax. Our kids loved the extras like the arcade area and massage chair.

This place was perfect for my family. They had everything that I needed and more. I am sure if I needed something else they would have taken care of it. The host was in constant communication with me from the time I booked to the time I checked out asking me if everything was ok, if I needed something, or if I needed a recommendation to go somewhere. I would definitely book this place again if I am in the area.

Quiet. Clean and comfortable for us and the dog. Well thought out and personal touches as well. Nice view of the river...even at night because it is across from a beach access. Any type of entertainment you want it's there. If you have kids you would probably never see them because of the options. Michelle maintained responsive communication if we needed something. Wish it was a bit warmer to enjoy outside a bit more. Thank you so very much, Judi

This was honestly one of the best stays we’ve had. From the moment we booked, the host made everything feel easy and welcoming. Communication was quick, kind, and genuinely helpful—they went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, and it really showed throughout the entire stay.When we arrived, the place was even better than expected. It was spotless, comfortable, and had such a warm, inviting feel to it. You can tell the host truly cares about the experience they provide. Every little detail was thought through, which made it so easy for us to relax and enjoy our time without worrying about anything.The location was perfect—peaceful and quiet, but still close enough to everything we wanted to do. It felt like the perfect balance of convenience and a true getaway.What really made this stay special, though, was the host. Their hospitality stood out in a big way. It didn’t feel transactional at all—it felt like they genuinely wanted us to have a great experience, and we absolutely did.We left feeling refreshed, grateful, and already talking about coming back. If you’re thinking about booking this place, just do it—you won’t regret it.

I’m especially glad the little details and communication made a difference for you. You were such a pleasure to host, and I truly appreciate how kind and respectful you were throughout your stay. I’d be more than happy to welcome you back anytime—would love to have you again!
