Beautiful beach house on a sandy private beach.
Enjoyed our stay, clean spacious beach house, with plenty of rooms, bed layout options. Various activities, from playing pool, foosball, 2 kayaks, or just enjoying an outdoor fire roasting marshmallows. Perfect place to get away with the family. We will definitely be back at some point in time.

GREAT STAY. Dan and Lisa thought of everything. Stayed for a week during a heat wave at end of June. Cottage stayed nice and cool, river was very refreshing. Family room and bedroom downstairs perfect for teens to have their own space. Highly recommended.

Unjust Cleaning Fee Recovered from Guests
Despite doing the cleaning and picking up garbage the guests are slapped with a cleaning fee.

Response from VrboOwner on 21 May 2025
Vijay, despite a very positive experience for the majority of your stay you left the property in horrendous condition including extensive damage to the floor in the basement and a bathroom covered in vomit. After an investigation and reviews of the evidence I provided, VRBO determined that a damage claim was warranted. We hold ourselves to a very high standard in terms of our guests level of satisfaction but we simply could not accept the level of disrepair the property was left in.
