Lovely

We very much enjoyed our stay. So nice to be able to sit by the river. I think it would have been quite boisterous earlier in the summer because of the lodge next door, but it was quite quiet

EVERYTHING WE WANTED!

The property was so amazing, with the layout between private and common space for the adults and teens. Private dock and proximity to beach made it as active or restful as anyone wanted. We greatly enjoyed the SHP Lodge including movie night, food, and recreation center.

Lovely home and experience.

Very thoughtfully and generously stocked home; we wanted for absolutely nothing. We loved the separate sleeping space (because that’s where we stayed). It made it feel like a vacation within a vacation. This house is clearly loved and well cared for. We are all grateful for the generosity of the hosts and hope to return next year. Thank you!

Absolutely beautiful property! This is right on the water for those that want to drop in and kayak or paddle board or float. We have a party of 8 for this stay and it was perfect for those that wanted to enjoy the view but not the water AND for those that love to be able b the water. We would for sure stay here again!!!!A few key things:1. It is a very well maintained property. You can tel the owners care for this place. 2. The kitchen is fully stocked with great pots, pans, etc. 3. The deck is to die for!!!! Great for hanging out and eating meals. 4. It is dog friendly, but you’ll need to walk your dog for potty breaks as there isn’t a yard. 5. Parking is tight. We got two vehicles in the space but for sure no room for 3. Parking is available further down the road and f you have more vehicles. 6. The house sleeps 7 comfortably. We had to bring a blow up mattress for our 8th person. If you had small kiddos you can easily sleep 8 as the house says. Overall, 5 stars!!!!

This was our second time staying in the Rhondavous. We love this little place! Four of our grandchildren, as well as our son and daughter-in-law joined us for a four-day stay. As we did last year, they had the house, while we had the “suite.” It was great. The house is thoughtfully and generously supplied with anything you might need, down to sewing supplies, batteries, and light bulbs. It has a very “homey” feel to it. The outdoor space is wonderful, although the painted floor gets awfully hot by mid-day—too hot to walk on. Shoes are absolutely necessary. We had a problem with the water heater while we were there but the owners were very responsive and took care of the problem as soon as we called. I would both recommend and return.

It had everything we needed

The Rhondavous home was perfect for a small group of friends to have a lovely get-away on the river. We cooked breakfast and dinner and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. The peace and quiet of the community contributed to our relaxing weekend. We would definitely come back!
