What a terrific property and host! Marilyn and her place were great for our Sunday-Wednesday stay with my wife and our college-age daughter plus her friend. The house had everything we needed for making breakfasts and lunches, with a decent mix of restaurants in town. Just plan ahead for some restaurant closures on Sunday-Tuesday nights. The little beach behind the house was perfect for putting toes in the water, digging in the sand, or floating in the broad river. The screened-in porch at the water's edge was great for morning coffee, a cocktail before dinner, or watching sunset. We've recommended it to friends and are looking to return.

This home was thoughtfully appointed to be sure we had everything we could want. A lovely welcome gift was left, there were extra towels and beach towels, soap and lotions, fans, coffee, and the list continues. Everything was clean and the linens were in great shape. The view from the gazebo is dreamy and the family of swans that live there make it even more so. They were amazing to watch - 13 at one count! A short drive to the restaurants in town. Great communication with the owner. We hope to be back!
