Nice weekend getaway
Enjoyed the house. Zero cell service but WiFi was good, cute house. Unfortunately, did not have time to use the hot tub, but we did check it out and it was clean and warm. My only issue was the well water. It is stinky, but common for that area. Just take bottled water.

Not well maintained
On arrival, the bush at the main porch entrance that you have to go though is overgrown. I had to dodge around it to get up the stairs. Property management sent an email or text (I can’t remember) with Wi-Fi instructions and they weren’t right. There was a different router and password for this property on a piece of paper tucked away on the kitchen counter. Hot tub had dirt in it. It clearly hadn’t been cleaned. The water was yellow and smelled bad. All the closest are full of stuff so you can’t really use them if you want. The drawers in the bedrooms have trash in them. There’s trash under the refrigerator, under the night stands etc. The night stands had a coat of dust on them. The property sent an auto generated message asking about cleanliness and when I responded to it, it came back as undeliverable. The house is either on well water or had a really bad hard water problem and it shows everywhere with real bed yellow staining. The property location is nice. The dock/porch on the river are nice to sit on, just know there is a road just on the other side of the river that is heavily trafficked. I can confidently say I wouldn’t recommend this property and I won’t be returning to it.

Cozy, But That Water!
While the photos online made the cabin and furnishings appear newer, the cabin was cozy, well-stocked, comfortable and well-furnished. Our only serious complaint, and the reason we would not return, is the water. The water had such a high iron content that I could not even stand to brush my teeth with it. After washing my hands or showering, I smelled like rusty metal the rest of the day. If there was something that could be done to improve the water quality, the cabin would be a sweet retreat.

River's edge cottage
Wonderful cottage in a quaint valley. Quiet neighborhood except for the traffic on the two lane road on the opposite side of the river. The house was equipped with everything you would need for a week or weekend stay.

House on the River
Listing is not accurate- HOT TUB. - did not work, fireplace did not work, fire-pit by the river was great but no where to sit - we could have brought chairs if we would have known. Water - reviews say a bit of mineral in water - very incorrect- very high mineral content lime I didn’t want to bathe or brush my teeth or make coffee we went back into town to buy bottled water for all these. It was dusty/cobwebs- old blankets just thrown into closets. Just kinda weird- oh and the neighbor came over while we are sitting down for dinner to tell is to move one of our cars because the UPS man comes flying down the road - mind you it’s Saturday night. Not a horrible experience but sounded much nicer on the listing.
