    This property was exactly what we needed. We are renovating and needed a place close by for us and our two large dogs.

    This was the perfect place for us with our two dogs. It was very clean and comfortable. The nook with the comfortable chairs overlooking the river was my favourite spot

    Beautiful spot, lots of amenities. Could use a ladder on the dock and a revision of the listing to make a few things less confusing.

    Well equipped rental. Nice layout and outdoor space. Pool table and indoor games kept us entertained on the rainy days and the back deck became the morning coffee spot!

    Our stay was good, house is so nice. The furniture and beds can use an upgrade as well used and on their last legs.

    Had a lovely stay here. Property was exactly as described. Property owner was accommodating and flexible with friendly, helpful and fast communication throughout.House is great, in a good location and with lovely views out over the river.The teens loved being able to kayak on the river and really enjoyed playing Pool and giant jenga in the games room.Worth noting that there aren’t doors on two of the bedrooms (which didn’t matter at all to us as they were private and at a distance from other spaces) in case you have a pet who you want to keep out of sleeping spaces.We have zero complaints, loved our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place to anyone looking for a family friendly place with lots of convenience, lots of space and great amenities. Thank you for having us!

    Needs a lot of TLC. The inside was OK except for the towel racks.The outside was horrendous. I was glad my grandson was Ill and couldn’t come because it would have been a nightmare. There is no view of the river because of the overgrowth. The swing was a broken down mess. There really was limited access to the river due to the treacherous broken down stairs.Very difficult for kayaking and fishing as the dock was slanted and half submerged in the water. Very disappointing property considering it has a fantastic potential .

    The house was faultless. The front garden is a good play area for all, adults and kids. The back garden is awesome, shaded areas and quiet. The access to the river was not good. There were loose steps, the gate couldn't be securely closed. the dock did not allow easy access to kayaks or canoe. The garden swing is dangerous, loose nails and screws and we did not use it as it seemed ready to fall down. There are better places if you have small children or seniors who want to access the river.
