2 / 10

Our stay at this property was highly disappointing capped off by a completely false 250 post-stay charge.While we followed all house rules and strictly smoked outside the property, the host has falsely accused us of smoking indoors to levy an extra fee. To be entirely responsible and comply with rules, we smoked outdoors, collected all cigarette butts safely in a bottle, and placed them in the indoor trash exactly as instructed. Potential guests should be aware of the actual state of the property during our stay: Climate & Odor: The house was extremely hot upon arrival. Both the main house and the Florida room were incredibly damp, leaving a strong, persistent smell of mildew throughout. Plumbing Issues: The showers failed to get hot. Guest House Conditions: The guest house was in particularly rough shape—there were no working lights in the guest house shower, and we discovered a rodent nest inside the guest house vanity.We expected a clean, comfortable, and well-maintained home, but instead dealt with substandard conditions and a baseless penalty after checking out. I cannot recommend this property. Host is out of state and relies entirely on housekeeping feedback. Also the only 3 other reviews on this property are from 2024. No one stayed here in that past two years??? Or are they getting deleted. We will see how far this one gets.

Great property and location. The river is beautiful!

This was the perfect spot for me and my 2 dogs to spend the weekend while visiting friends in the area. I liked the privacy and river access as well. The place is clean, but a little outdated (to be expected from a rustic cottage). I would certainly stay there again!
