We chose this location and rental due to location and other great reviews. It is centrally located to many state parks but there is also the option to kayak right out the back door. Large windows overlook the river with beautiful sunrises. Great options for food and ice cream (our favorite treat) nearby.

Everything was great! It was a good place to get away from all the hustle and bustle. Savannah kept us in the loop despite all the stormy weather and it was overall a great experience! The boys loved Merle the dog and the cat that came and said hello every day!

This rental was everything we could have asked for. The house is on the river, with nothing to obstruct the view. The owners provided everything we needed and more for our comfort. We were greeted with a tasty loaf of banana bread and a bottle of wine when we arrived. Followed shortly by a visit from Luna, the sweetest cat. And later Merle, a big, lovable dog. Both visited us every day. We plan to come back next year.

The owners have done a wonderful making this a very comfortable location. You feel like a guest, not a costumer…from the fresh eggs, sprigs of basil, and homemade bread to welcome us.

This was a great stay. Roomy, comfortable and a back deck that provides a "magazine article" setting. The perfect place for morning coffee. Worth every penny!
