It felt like cooking in our own home. We enjoyed the water view from the deck and had coffee there every morning. There are umbrellas to block the sun, so you can enjoy the deck And the view of the water all day. We really enjoyed all of the games, puzzles, and outdoor activities like cornhole and ping-pong that were included. The kayaks were easy to access as well as the life vests.

Plenty of room both inside and out for the 4 adults 2 kiddos and 2 furry kiddos. Honestly the only complaint is the lack of a decent broom and a mop. The driveway and some surrounding areas are sandy making it difficult to keep the beautiful dark hardwood floors clean throughout our stay. The fire pit was a big hit and plenty of fire wood to keep us entertained. The dock was a plus. Ample parking for 2 SUVs and a full size truck with a 24' boat. ##### Chris B.

Our family of grandparents, parents, and 7 year old girl enjoyed kayaking and swimming and just hanging out at this house. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen well-enough equipped for cooking , and the shower is great. The best part of all is the river. We were fortunate and the weather was warm on the October week-end we were there, so we were able to swim and kayak. The water is shallow enough for little kids by the shore but is great for deep water swimming and one can kayak on calm waters or easily reach a larger expanse. Kathy, the owner is a great host. Direct TV (no fault of the host) was having trouble on the night of a big ball game and Kathy kept after them until they solved the problem. ##### Pamela B.

It was an easy 2 hour drive. The house was perfect for me and my dog with plenty of space for more people too. It was light and open with WiFi strong enough for video calls. I enjoyed working in the open space and my dog loved hanging out on the deck and huge yard. It’s not fenced in but only a few cars a day would pass. The house is well removed from a main road but there were enough homes in the community that I didn’t feel completely isolated. The kitchen was well equipped and everything worked. Also had some nice extras for the dog - food bowls and dog beds. I loved sitting out on the dock at the end of the day with a glass of wine… it was peaceful and quiet. I brought my own food so can’t comment on restaurants. The owner was super responsive to a WiFi glitch that was resolved within minutes. I would definitely come back here again. ##### Regina P.

The house itself is very nicely appointed and helps you feel like you're treating yourself. The main room is open and airy and serves as a perfect gathering place. The access to the water was great--no steep dropoff or long line of steps. We were able to push the kayaks (there are 2 single kayaks) into the water directly from the shore. There are life jackets--including for kids!--fishing rod, cornhole, mountain bikes (though we didn't use those), etc. We also loved the board games and that there were ones appropriate for younger players (junior Scrabble and Monopoly, Jenga...). Lastly, Kathy was an amazing host. She provides awesome, helpful information re: the area, and was always very responsive in our communications. We had a bit of a hiccup with check-in and she picked up after the first ring when I called her, which was a lifesaver. Would love to come back! ##### Mina K.

We enjoyed a perfect stay. The house is as described, very cozy and quiet with everything you need for cooking, to relax, play, walk, etc. We also appreciated a lot the fire pit and the chimney as it was very cold. There's plenty activities and nice towns around. ##### Gaëlle D. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dave K.

It overlooks a small cove and the river. We saw ducks, herons, and eagles. The location is in a wooded and quiet community. Description on VRBO was accurate. Communication with the owner was great. ##### Dave K.
