The property was delightful to stay at. If the shrubbery was trimmed in front of the windows so you can see the river better, it would be nice. The mattress was super comfortable and my wife and I slept very well.We did feel that more comfortable living room furniture could be acquired; short backed chairs and a couch that you slide out of.There were no check out instructions sent to us or posted at the property. I contacted the host but their response was after we hit the road. However, we had completed the tasks prior to leaving and all was good.Thanks for letting us stay in this home. It was restful.
We stayed at Prospector's Bend as a weekend get-away, we loved that it was on the bank of the river and welcomed our dog. The host Guinevere was very welcoming via text, and was easy to check in with. We didn't have any issues pop up that were worth concerning Guinevere with, but she did provide options to contact should we have needed which was appreciated. The highlight of the home was definitely the hot-tub which was awesome after a nice hike over at Bridal Veil Falls. The hot-tub was well treated, you could get out after a nice soak and not feel like you were burning with chemical. Although it was missing a couple of the neck pads, but that's easily remedied with a towel. I appreciated the host mentioned they were in the process of replacing the cover and cover stand. Having a full kitchen was great for making meals, all the basic cookware is available. It didn't have any major impact on our stay, however I'll say I think the listing leans heavy on the use of luxury. This is a nice rental, in a easy to reach location. However the home shows its age, and is a nice river cabin type feel ascetics, which made it great for our use since we had our dog and planned to come and go for hikes. Worth mentioning, the back area has a massive blueberry plant that produces great fresh berries. We'd happily stay again.
