Annual White River Fishing Trip

The home was very clean and nice. We enjoyed our stay. The railing for the stairs ends on the 2nd from the last stare at the bottom of the stars and can lead to a "misstep" if not careful in the morning with limited lighting.

Great weekend on the White river

Excellent location close to several access points and good fishing right from the property during low water periods. Really enjoyed cooking out on the pack patio and just watching the river roll by after a day of fishing!
