Good stay until we saw roaches

We had a great time. It fit our family perfectly. It would be a 5 star review except for the fact there was an infestation of German roaches.

Perfect family get away

We loved our stay! It was the perfect family get away for our family and teens. We enjoyed the dock, campfire and hot tub on the cooler days and of course paddling in the river in the sun! The proximity to paddle the Itchnetuckne was terrific (only 10 min drive) We also brought a small boat and had a great time exploring the Santa Fe. We are already planning a return trip!

Great Property!

This home was just as listed. Plenty of space and things to do. Unfortunately the river flooded days before we arrived but it did not stop us from enjoying the property. We couldn’t kayak but that was not a deal breaker. The host was very transparent and accommodating. I look forward to visiting again so that I can experience the river more!

Great river place

This house is very large and accommodating. Everyone had their own bedroom with lots of places to hang out. People on the river were very friendly and always waved or spoke as they went by. Would definitely rent again.
