Loved this place with the river view! The only feedback I would give this place is to have a fan of some sort for the rooms. They have heat but no a/c. I came in the summer time and it got pretty hot in the room.

Thanks for your feedback! I am glad you enjoyed your stay. We recently placed fans in all of the units. It may have been in the closet and just not seen.

We loved the sound of the Falls River flowing right by our balcony. Loved the rustic lodge and the cozy lights on our upstairs balcony . Very welcoming place. We will be back!
