Impressive

From the moment we pulled in, we were in all at this beautiful location and house with glass panoramic view of the river. All the bedrooms were cozy and comfortable, and there was a huge living space that opened up to the kitchen and dining area, which is where we spent most of our indoor time. I brought my two kids and their spouses and my grandbaby, and we had a place to park our boat. We enjoyed the canoes and kayaks up the river and even saw a baby alligator. Experience was phenomenal and we created amazing memories and I am so grateful that we had such a beautiful place to do so we have all decided that we will make this an annual trip. Our host was responsive and informative. I highly recommend staying here.

Wonderful experience

What a wonderful place to escape from the busyness of life. The house sits like it's on a peninsula-water views everywhere. The rush of the river is like constant white-noise, providing a wonderful ambiance to enjoy conversation, games, and landscape. If you are looking to kayak or paddleboard, come with experience and lifejackets, as while we were there,the river moved much to fast for anyone to paddle back upstream.
