Aug 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy My boyfriend and I had a lovely stay! The inside is charming, the kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals. The bedrooms were small but perfectly fine for us. We loved the large porch and the area down by the river. We spent lots of time wading around and watching the water go by. Very close to the grocery store, just 11 minutes, but it feels like you're at a secluded getaway. ##### jane p.
