Fantastic rental! We enjoyed the hot tub, eating our meals al fresco, a refreshing dip in the river after sauna, smores, and the gorgeous views. The house has everything you need for a proper getaway.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jul 2025
This is a beautiful property! The house is spacious but still feels cozy. The kitchen was well stocked (including tons of spices). Beds were comfortable. Our kids spent hours at the swimming hole in the river. Owners were attentive but not hovering. We loved our stay and highly recommend.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jul 2025
The overall quality of our stay was superb. The appointments in the kitchen were well thought out.The outdoor amenity area was excellent. The outdoor bbq was over the top, and the hot tub and sauna added to the quality of our stay. The owner was receptive to the few requests we had and resolved them quickly.
