This is a very nice property on the river. We were visiting family that live in Au Gres, so we did not spend a lot of time at the house. The bedrooms are comfortable, and the bathrooms updated. And it is very well stocked with plenty of dishes and kitchen items. Washer and dryer were great for our 10 day visit. It is very conveniently located and my son and DIL enjoyed running in the area along the river.

The house was very clean, nicely decorated and has very spacious bedrooms. The kitchen was very nice and well stocked with anything you might need. The location was perfect, close to town and access to the water. We were able to dock our boat right at the sea wall, which made easy access for fishing. The fishing was great!

Au Gres / Fushing outing

Accommodations were perfect for our group of 4 fishermen. Home owner was a great help and made sure we had everything we needed. It’s the little things that make a difference, and everything you needed was supplied. Great view of the river and very relaxing.Restaurants close by and great food. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Fishing was great as well as the weather.
