Summary: The home it's self was very cozy and clean. The out side was the negative. Lot's of spiders on webs everywhere. Probably a non issue in colder weather. No water access on or near the property. Was still a nice quiet getaway.

Summary: Nice getaway spot! We didn’t have quite the view of the river as pictured on VRBO (area was a bit overgrown) but we still enjoyed relaxing on the back porch taking in the surroundings. If you happened to forgot anything (toiletries, sunscreen, etc) chances are this host provided it! Very thoughtful. House is well supplied with kitchen necessities, games, movies & resources for things to do in the area. Even though there is no WIFI, as host stated, we were able to watch tv with the antenna. It is a very peaceful location and an enjoyable stay.
