This is the third or maybe fourth year we have stayed at this wonderful home! I love the ease of access, timely communication with the owners, gorgeous views of the river, easily walkable to various stores and restaurants, and only seven minutes drive to our event!

Clean convenient lodging

We were in town for a family event. Just needed some extra beds. We didn't spend much time at the home but it was clean and the beds were comfortable. The sitting area was nice for relaxing before bed. And the walking path by the river made for a pleasant morning walk
