Really cozy & well kept home. Unfortunately water table too low to put in kayak at house, but dock great to sit on & chill. Deck is terrific—has covered & uncovered sections which is really sweet. Easy drive to excellent hiking. All amenities also easy access by car.

An absolutely wonderful place to stay. Communication with Justin was great. the cottage was very clean and cool as the temperature outdoors was 90 plus. The beds are comfortable and the big shower was delightful. Being at the end of July, the river was low but the view is fantastic. A blue heron came each evening to feed. Location to many hikes,etc is a bonus. Would definitely return to this place. Thank you for sharing your lovely home.

Me and my family had a great experience staying there. The river behind the house was really fun activity for all of us and especially for my nieces. There was kayaks and canoes available for us to use so we didn’t have to go anywhere to do an activity. The home was clean and cozy I would definitely love to rent it soon again. Great views the house had everything quiet and peaceful.

Great property

The property was really nice. Waterfront was great, having the use of kayaks and canoe was great, the house and amenities were really nice, and everything was so clean. One of the surprising things this time around for us was there really weren’t any chores to do before we left which was a nice change from previous rental we have been too. The property owner was very responsive. Great relaxing stay!

Home was very clean. Kitchen was well stocked. I did not use the kayaks, but did you use the canoe which worked out wellIf you’re going to stay there, I’d suggest bringing a pair of binoculars. Saw one bald eagle there’s several kingfishers and some other nice birds in the little small pond area behind the homeOverall, I rate it an excellent property.
