On almost every front, this was the perfect place to stay, but there was one negative thing that was hard to overlook.
The good:
-The location was amazing. Right on the river, the semi-secluded backyard with a firepit and rushing water was amazing.
-The house had all the kitchen necessities to accommodate a big group cooking during thanksgiving week. Plenty of pots/pans/utensils, etc.
-It was cozy, with a large porch out back that was perfect for relaxing
The bad:
- The mattress on the king bed upstairs was horrendous. The left side of the mattress seemed to have every mattress spring in it missing, so that if you slept on the left side of the bed, you were sleeping at probably a 30 degree angle, which led to waking up with terrible knots in your back. My wife and I both tried to sleep on that side the first couple nights, and then gave up. This was a pretty big disappointment, as it led to someone sleeping on the couch multiple nights of our stay. The owner tried to cover it up by putting a thick memory foam pad on the top of the bed, but this only made matters worse. If the owner could invest in a new mattress for the upstairs king bed, this stay would receive a 100/100 and we would be sure to come back, but with the current mattress, we would have a tough time paying to come back again.
