Jun 8, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Clean and Relaxing place to stay! I visited with friends for a couple of days, and we stayed at Casa Topo. It was super clean and accommodating. We didn't have any issues at all, and we enjoyed relaxing on the river in some inner tubes. The host is very communicative and friendly! Also as an added bonus, there was a white duck who kept following us around on the river. He was a great tour guide. ##### Alex A. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julie F. Feb 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Incredible house in a great location! Wow - this is the best appointed vacation home I’ve ever stayed in! Thoroughly stocked kitchen with everything you need to cook great meals. Thoughtful details like washer & dishwasher pods. Comfortable & beautifully appointed.one of the best showers I’ve ever had, and I LOVED that huge bathtub. I was in town because of the death of a family member but can’t wait to come back when I have time to enjoy the river. In fact, I’ve already booked a return visit! Seems like it would be a great spot for a reunion of friends/family, bc there are 2 other houses plus camp sites. ##### Julie F.
