Comfortable and quiet

When we came everything was clean and ready. It was very quiet. The kids enjoyed swimming in the river and kayaking as well. The house had plenty of space. We look forward to visiting again.

Great weekend getaway

Came up to relax and fish. Weather didn’t always cooperate for the boat, but great fishing at night from the porch. Hosts were responsive to any concerns or needs.

Awesome rental & host!

The location on the river is amazing. Even better than we expected. Pricing is on point. We found it very relaxing in the mornings to sit out front and have a coffee. In the afternoons it was fun to swim and watch the boats go by. We did some fishing and caught some bluegill and perch.The host were very friendly and had great communication. I would give the hosts & rental 10 stars if I could but it only allows me to give 5!

Beautiful Getaway

My family loved everything about our stay and wouldn't change a thing. The cottage is clean, well stocked, beautiful, and cozy. The patio on the water is amazing. We loved sitting on the patio watching the eagles, loons, and other wildlife. Everyone is friendly and the hosts are amazing. My son did a lot of fishing and we also went swimming. I definitely look forward to returning in the future. 10/10

Loved our stay, been going 3 years in a row now.

Love it here, been coming here two/three times a year for the past three years when visiting my father. Owner Rhonda and her husband are great. Perfect place for summer fun or fall colors.

Beautiful view of the river!

We came to the area to view the fall foliage. The property has an exceptional view of the river and hillside on the opposite side. It couldn’t have been any closer to the river. The property is a bit dated, but was great for what we needed.
