8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Apr 2024
I didn't see the fine print that the kayaks are not available until April. I requested that they allow us to use them, but no go. I did get a text message from the owner, but no kayaks.
We arrived on a rainy evening. The road to the house was about as bad as all the other reviews. GPS only gets you so far. There was a sign on a tree at a fork in the road which gave us some confidence. The dirt/gravel road was a bit soft with the rain and it gave us pause. You have about a half-mile still to go when the GPS quits. We kept driving the narrow road. There is only room for one car with either a downslope or trees to stop the fall. Eventually, we came to the house on the river. Very secluded, private, and peaceful.
It was March Madness time, so one of the first things I focused on after unloading was to check out the main TV. I struggled for quite some time before I finally found the YouTube app worked. Whew! I was trying everything. Couldn't download other apps. Couldn't cast from my phone.
Then it was time to grill burgers for dinner. Nope, the grill wouldn't get over 200 degrees. We finally gave up on grilling and took the burgers inside to fry on the stove.
Of course, this set off the very loud smoke alarms which would not turn off. Toni, our contact never answered the phone on numerous attempts. She finally did answer when the alarm was blaring. She told us to unplug or take out the battery of the alarm, but it was so high up on the wall, there was no way to reach it. She said she would come to the house the next day to fix the grill. She never showed up and did not answer the phone again.
We wanted to grill hot dogs for lunch the next day, so I went to Walmart and exchanged the propane tank. The grill did get a little hotter, but still not perfect. I'm sure the regulator on the grill is shot. After lunch, my son-in-law could smell gas leaking. This is an explosion waiting to happen. The owner did give me a credit of $50 for my troubles, but we would have preferred the burgers.
The house in general was nice. The master bathroom had a spa tub and a large shower. The kitchen was adequate with a nice island to gather around. The outside decks were good as they were covered. Part of the deck was screened. We used the 2-car garage for our cars. We enjoyed the firepit as well.
At $395/night with all of the fees, its a bit pricey, but it can sleep 10 people. We celebrated my wife's birthday. She liked the house.

Property is awesome once you get there!! Road is definitely tricky but not too bad.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Dec 2022
The house was wonderful, with a few exceptions. There were only a total of 4 regular-sized glasses. This house sleeps up to 10 and should accommodate that many.
Another big part of why I chose this house was because of its awesome outdoor screened-in porch with seating and propane outdoor heater. When we arrived, the outdoor heater was missing. I contacted the "guest contact" as I was told to do, and she said that it was only for the owners use. The guestbook clearly states that it should have been outside and available for use. There was no more discussion after I stated it should have been available. It is also stated as an amenity and is included in the pictures of the house. It was in the 20's outside while we were visiting and it would have been nice to be able to utilize a heater while gathering with family outside.
