It was a nice house and everything was great besides the common area being below the house so everyone up late could be heard. Other than that it was great 👍🏻

4/10 Poor

Great Location, Service Needs Improving

We liked the location of the facility. Unfortunately, there was no staff on property and we got no response to our calls and texts asking for help until we had already been here 2 days. We were short on wash cloths and there were no instructions on connecting to wifi. Despite calling before 5pm on Friday (the time the answering machine says the office is closed), we received no response to our calls and texts for help until Sunday afternoon. While the wash cloth issue was resolved, we never were able to get on wifi. While both issues are relatively minor by themselves, the frustration level was increased exponentially because no one got back to me for 2 days. I got apologies and assurances about changes so this won't happen to the next renter. I'm not sure how that helped me. Also, while I appreciate the effort to make the beds as comfortable as possible by adding extra padding on the mattress, it would be helpful if pillowtop sheets were used. Regular fitted sheets are too small for the mattress and padding, resulting is short sheeting the bed. If there are customer service and facility improvements, I would say the facility is worth considering. But until then, I can't recommend it.

Hi Michel, Thank you so much for your feedback! We can certainly get a trash can in the bathroom and some hangers for the property. We do include on the listing that cell reception and internet are not guaranteed, which is why we don't include it as an amenity, we try to be as transparent as possible to all of our guests :). We do include a new TV in the living room, but it is on the smaller side yes at 42"! We also have our large flat screen in the covered common area so guests can enjoy the games out by the river if you'd like! Thanks again, take care Michel!

Dirty place! And I don’t know why they charge you a cleaning fee and they want you to clean before living the apartment. Not worth the price!!!

Hi Yesica, thank you so much for your feedback! We never received a response from you via text message, when we offered to send out cleaning to re-wash the dishes for ya'll! Our only items we request upon departure is to put used towels in a pile, turn on the dishwasher, and remove the trash from the unit. This tremendously helps cleaning when we have turnovers in the same day (it's also listed in the house rules upon booking)! We would never ask guests to clean the unit, which is why we wanted to send someone over. We apologize your experience wasn't the best, and hope we can accommodate y'all in the future to show our attentiveness to your past experience!

Awesome location!

We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was just as pictured. Communication with the owner was easy. We loved being so close to the water, as well as all of the extra outdoor amenities. I wish we had brought extra blankets for the futon, as there was just one sheet and one thin blanket. There was also no cell service or WiFi in our unit, although there was access to internet in the business center. It was nice to unplug for the weekend, though! We would absolutely stay here again, as the location can’t be beat!

Amazing View and Location

My boyfriend and our friends came to float the river and really enjoyed our stay! The view was amazing and the accommodations were perfect! The location was awesome as it was outside the city limits so the "no can ban" did not apply. There are several tube rentals, a general store and grill/ bars close by. Koozie's, a fun little grill/ bar place is directly across the street and they had live music Saturday night! We really had only one complaint that we had little to no cell service and were not able to connect to the WiFi. There were not any directions listed in the welcome pack regarding the WIFI, although we came to float the river so it was nice to disconnect. Overall though we had a great time and will definitely be coming back!
