Thank you for a wonderful place to stay during our tournament. The house was really clean and comfortable. The view of the river was so calming and beautiful. Even saw an eagle flying over the river while drinking my morning coffee !

Surprise Celebration
We had a surprise celebration for my sis in law. This property was her grandparents growing up. So it was super special to be able to rent it. The property is beautifully decorated and we thought it would be a great space to stay again for a cozy family stay and enjoying the water. Perfect space with plenty of room!

Riverhouse Stay
We use VRBO regularly and agreed this was one of our best stays! Peaceful area, the house was cute, very clean and well provisioned. Instructions were all provided and clear and we had no issues requiring call or message to the hostess/host. It was exactly what we needed and made a hectic weekend SO much easier! Would stay again if available and would recommend! Thank you for everything, it is much appreciated!

Perfect Getaway!
A small group of girlfriends met here for a weekend and I am so glad we did! The rental was just as listed. It was clean, so peaceful, in a great location, with an amazing backyard patio and river view. The check in and out was easy, and Kelly left us a list of orchards nearby. We found some really nice consignment shops and spent 3 hours at a nearby antique mall before heading back for grilling out and sitting by the campfire. I have never slept at a rental with beds as comfortable as Kelly's were, including the pullout couch. We are hoping for a repeat visit in the future.
