Great place and peaceful. Host responded quickly to concerns on operating the oven. There was a dog in the neighbors that did bark but it wasn't often. Great amenities for playing on the river. The only problem is if you run one of the appliance causes the water pressure to decrease. Inviting home and hosts.

Cozy house in a beautiful setting. Had everything we needed for great stay and all the toys to enjoy the water were great. Our dogs enjoyed the yard and playing in the river too.

Overall the place was great. Homey, comfortable, sauna was great. What wasn’t so great was we got a noise warning in the afternoon while we were down at the dock and my two grandsons were attempting to jump in the river one time. We were out there for no more than 45 minutes. We had no other “noise” at all. The neighbors dogs made more noise on a daily basis than us. That was the ONLY time we were outside other than using the sauna. The other strange thing was an unannounced “leaf blowing man” who wandered around barely blowing anything. I never post negative remarks but it was a little disturbing. Other than those two things our stay went great!
