The house and location were lovely. Beautiful river, great porch. We spent pretty much our entire day outside by the water, so can’t speak to how the house is during the day. Inside was well taken care of and linens were clean. The house was one bed short of the listing (expected 8 beds, only 7 present), but the property managers said that detail would be updated.

The home was very well furnished. We loved the location on the river for tubing. This was our fourth year renting in Todd for the July 4th week and our favorite rental. The bed space is perfect with 3 queens and 2 twins, and 2 roll aways if needed. The kitchen was the best! It was well stocked with everything you need to cook and a full spice cabinet. We had sharp knives and even found a steamer. There was ample outdoor seating to enjoy the porches and backyard. We enjoyed the annual Todd Liberty Day parade and music in the park.
