Surrounded by the grandeur of ancient oaks, this serene setting offers an oasis of tranquility.

As the River House welcomes you with open arms, its five spacious bedrooms offer a retreat for every member of your group. From the king-size bed in the master suite to the charming twin/full bunk rooms and the inviting king and twin-sized guest bedrooms, each space is thoughtfully designed to cater to your unique preferences and needs.
Retirees seeking respite from the north's cold embrace will find their haven here—a place where the richness of history meets the warmth of southern hospitality.
The River House beckons you to write your own story, paint your own masterpiece, and revel in the joys of togetherness. Named for the river that flows nearby, it embodies the essence of creativity and connection, inviting you to create cherished memories that will endure for a lifetime.

Perfect rental for a few families to share

Our stay was great and the layout of the home was perfect for a few small families to share. The walkability to the riverfront was perfect for catching the 4th of July fireworks displays. We really enjoyed our stay.
