"The entire place was so peaceful and I had everything I needed. When I was forced to extend my stay due to an ice storm they made sure I was safe and made it easy to extend my stay."

Beautiful home, well decorated and being so close at the river was magic. The sunrise was beautiful and so was the sunset. Absolutely worth it!

Most VRBO's are older houses that are showing their age a little. Not this one. We walked into a essentially brand new house..new furnishings...new appliances...new dishes/cups/knives. etc. It has great view of the river...just a few steps away (new dock). It feels relatively remote but it is within a 10 minute drive of shopping and restaurants (though there is a very nice restaurant a few hundred feet away. The area under the house is great place to relax on a warm summer day. Watching the Osprey dive for fish and the Great Blue Herons perch on the trees across the river was another thing I looked forward to each morning. I simply can't say enough nice things about this house. We will be back.
