GREAT LOCATION. Cabin is roomy, easy river access. Was a little dirty but I did book the day before my stay. Would stay again.
The host was wonderful!!!
When we weren’t at the river, we spent our time on the deck playing games, guitar, and grilling. The cabin hosts a plethora of birds. We saw painted buntings, red birds (not cardinals), yellow finches and more. Regarding the cabin itself, my son slept on a twin and said, “it was the best sleep he has ever had.” The window units keep the cabin cool and the fans help as well. The rock stairs are also a super creative addition. My kids preferred to use them. The cabin was clean and cozy. The location is awesome. We visited several nearby establishments, like Joe Jimmys, Neal’s Diner and Hippie Chicks. We saw deer, danced, ate s’mores, swam, painted rocks, and just over all, had the best time. The cabin owner is also amazing, kind, and very resourceful.
Tho the cabin was clean, it is terribly outdated. The front porch looks as if it is about to fall off. The yard hadn't been mowed in forever. The steps around the side of the house are dangerous! The access to the water is not as we were told. We made the best of it and the host was very kind, but i was so disappointed. A few upgrades and new porch and yard work would help tremendously.
Great little place close to river. For sure short walking distance. Awesome outside deck/patio. Older home but definitely a great stay. Would stay again
Cabin was perfect for what we needed. Short walk to the water and conveniently located in Concan. Would definitely rent again.
This is a perfect place to relax and enjoy nature. Although we were off season it was still very exciting and adventurous at the moment we drove onto the property. I can only imagine how cool this place is during the summer months.
This house is the perfect distance from the river. Not so close that we had to worry about little kids, but close enough to walk in just a few minutes. The river is clean, cool, and so refreshing. Even those who did not want to swim enjoyed putting their feet in the river.
My family came into Concan for our annual summer river trip. We had the pleasure of staying at the Sunflower. Amanda was very easy to get in touch with and the relaxing on the porch after a long river day was perfect. I’d definitely come back and recommend staying at this property.
The sunflower was in a great location & is centrally located where it is close to every attraction. The house was clean & spacious enough for our 7 guest.
The owner was extremely easy to communicate with and was beyond helpful with info on all the local amenities and attractions. She kept me posted on the water level of the river and any details on the house.
My husband and 4 children stayed for 3 nights. It was a cozy home with a great location. The owner is very sweet and even sent us lots of info on local places.
id arrive excited but soon after entering cabin, was not very clean and small amount of kitchen tools as a cookie sheet or pan. We washed each dish we used as there was dirt. Towels provided had not been washed and were new. Used the towels and dye ran all over the tub. Wish there had been more warning of assists to water. We went to private property or we had to pay $50 to park and a per person fee to get a pool nearby. Most other activities were all booked and we could not go. Deck was so dirty. We had to clean chairs and table hadn’t been cleaned in along time. I will not be using the facility again.
Unfortunately, the house didn't meet our expectations for the money spent. The house had 2 window units, which weren't on when we arrived in 98° weather. Which made for an unpleasant first evening. The refrigerator also wasn't turned down so we couldnt even put dairy in it for the first 24hrs. The bath tub had a leaky faucet with stains around the drain. There were dishes in the strainer that looked to be washed, but in our opinion should have been put away. Our impression was that the home wasn't prepped properly for new Guests. The grounds around the home had litter, random water hoses on the deck & an old pair of shoes. The 3rd day, we had tickets to see a Country concert at the local watering hole & when we plugged in the hairdryer, the breaker tripped which caused the AC to go out. We had to call the owner to locate the breaker. The window unit in the bedroom was plugged into an extension cord & the outlet was right above ear level next to the bed, wich we felt was not safe. We also observed only 1 smoke detector, which was over the front door. Overall, although the location was good, we would not recommend this house. Its old, not updated and was not comfortable for our family. When i voiced our multiple concerns to the owner, she suggested i leave a good review first & then she would request a discount from VRBO. We elected to maintain our integrity & leave an honest review.
