"The house was very clean and comfortable. They could use a bench or chair in one of the guest rooms to put your suitcase on and also some table reading lamps next to the bed. Also sone ice cube trays for the freezer. Great location. Very easy to get to and check in was perfect."

Riverview charming apt near beach

Riverview charming apt near beach

8/10 Good
"Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The unit itself is great—very spacious with plenty of room for our family of five. The large eat-in kitchen was a big plus, and having two large bedrooms gave everyone plenty of space. The location is also excellent: tucked away just enough to feel off the beaten path, while still being only about two minutes from Main Street.When we arrived, it was clear the unit had not been cleaned after the previous guests. I messaged the host, and to his credit, he responded immediately and was there within minutes to take care of it. We really appreciated how quickly he addressed the issue.One thing future guests should know: be prepared for quite a few stairs! Aside from that, the space, location, and responsiveness of the host made for a good stay overall."

Winter deal! Delightful 3-4 bed one floor, 3 baths, fireplace

10/10 Excellent
"We get together with family friends annually and this place was a great setting all around. We made great use of the screened in porch, the outdoor spaces (kids loved playing baseball out back) and the large kitchen. The final bedrooms are through an unfinished basement then through a door and down some stairs - so fairly far away.. This downstairs area was good for some of the older kids. We also LOVED the piano and had some wonderful sing along memories made! We did miss a few amenities we usually associate with VRBOs - dish soap; some hand soap in several bathrooms; sufficient toilet paper for our stay (several bathrooms only had a half roll and there were no extras in the home); paper towels; cooking oil...with that said we brought a few of these to the host's attention and he was quickly responsive and willing to buy them and bring them out. We just opted to purchase our own but might be worth bringing these or clarifying before you show up if these are things you don't usually bring like us. Also - a location note - we'd hoped to put in kayaks and SUPs in the nearby marina or behind the house. There is definitely no access behind the house and the marina staff were not friendly to us when trying to launch our kayaks. Overall small things in the scheme of things though and we had such a wonderful time! Would return - great value & location!"
