    We loved staying here and hated to leave. It was a nice and peaceful place to sit back and regroup. Right on the river, enjoyed the firepit at night. It was close to area attractions without being in the middle of all the commotion. I love all the extras that Dellene provided to make our stay comfortable. I give her 10 stars!

    I absolutely loved staying here! Between the king size bed, a river perfect for skipping rocks and swimming and plenty of room for our dogs to run around I will have to come back!! You’re close enough to town to where you don’t even need to drive 10 minutes for food or drinks but you feel far away enough to get away from the city life. Absolutely loved it here and would recommend anyone to come check it out!!

    It's beautiful property and a very nice retreat. We really enjoyed our entire stay there. Had a little bit of trouble communicating with the owner but she was very nice when we did get in contact with her. There were ants in the kitchen so if this got taken care of, I would rate cleanliness 5 star. Overall was very lovely and we would definitely consider staying there again.

    The property's grounds are fantastic and spacious, especially near the creek. There was a lot of dog hair on the furniture in the bedroom and under the bed, which prompted my spouse and I to leave early.

    We booked 3 nights to spend some time with family in both North and South Carolina. Dellene is a delighit! it was like staying with a friend. Her pups are precious and welcomed our girl as one of the family. The sounds of the river and her beautiful windchimes make it sound like you are in heaven. I would definitely come back to visit again.
