The location on the river was peaceful and we were like little kids watching the trains go by as we relaxed in the hot tub! Brad even supplies comfy robes and communication with him was easy. Although the bedrooms work for 4 people, the rest of the living quarters are small, so it’s ideal for 2 people. During nice weather it would probably be ok, because there’s a nice deck with fire pit. It was just too cold out for us to make use of it. ##### Laura L. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Derrick W.
