The house itself, aside from the interior stairs, was good. Good, HOT water. Just filthy! We took the sheets off the beds - hair and little black spots. Bought new sheets, pillows and cover at Target - unplanned new sheet sets for home. Absolutely no contact from the "property manager". ##### Stanley W.

Oct 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great family property on the river We had a group of friends stay in this house together with kids age range between 1-12\. While there were enough bedrooms to accommodate a large group, the beds were not the best. However there were extra futons and couches plus floor space for plenty of air mattresses. Our only other negative comment would be about the lack of toilet paper, paper towels, garbage bags and some other kitchen items. However, that’s an easy fix so please don’t let that deter you from this place. It is in a great location on the river with a lot of kayaks and entertainment space. The contact for the property was very responsive and nice. We will definitely be looking to stay at this property for another river trip in the future. ##### Danielle G.

We loved sitting in the backyard and watching the river. Manatees passed by on several occasions. The kayaks were perfect! There were enough for everyone and it was easy to get them on and off the storage racks. This house is probably best for people that can use the stairs. There is a kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom downstairs, but the main dining area and nicer kitchen is upstairs. There is also a lovely balcony upstairs that we enjoyed. ##### Jennifer C.

Oct 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had an issue in the beginning with getting into the house because I wasn’t getting communication from the property mgr regarding the code. The original code I received was on Tuesday but didn’t see anything after that, so when used that one & it didn’t work, I freaked out but we had the problem resolved immediately upon calling. Apparently, I wasn’t getting any further messages about the code change. Just a glitch but we got through it. Everything imaginable was available for use onsite. We brought a lot of things we didn’t need to. The upstairs was the best. Thank you for a wonderful weekend! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5327138e-0dc7-478c-a872-947517ce924d-1760324207713.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/221fd05c-817c-404b-a0dc-82be50420c6c-1760324207766.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d69531b7-032f-463f-9027-3a8a72ca4b14-1760324213568.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7748f511-41fb-48fd-b6a1-576e30cf39dd-1760324210899.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Heather P.
