    We had a fabulous long weekend at this Endless water views property. The scenery was absolutely beautiful and the property had everything that you could possibly need. The grounds were amazing and well maintained. The host was welcoming and was available to answer any questions. We thoroughly enjoyed the tranquil setting and the kayaks that were provided. The house was clean and beautifully decorated. We were delighted to find many fruit trees in the front yard and ample parking for 4 or 5 vehicles. We would definitely consider renting this 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath home again because the house was amazing and the host was delightful and helpful.

    This property did exactly what I needed it to do: restored my soul. I've had a year, to say the least, and I was looking for a beautiful, peaceful retreat - and Cindy's home has both of those things in abundance. The property is stunningly beautiful and exceptionally well maintained. The water views available for a variety of places on the property are soothing and plentiful, and you get the bonus of music drifting across the river from Unwined on the Water, which is directly across from the house. My dog Lola and I spent five blissful days decompressing, watching the ducks and herons, and getting rejuvenated for the long winter to come. We may need to top off our peace reservoirs in the fall, though, and this is the perfect place to do that. Just book it. You can thank me later. :)

    We rented the house as a place to sleep during a family reunion. Once there, however, no one wanted to leave! The house was relaxing and spacious! We cannot wait to go back next year!

    Wow…. What can I say…this place was amazing! I felt like I was in a luxury spa resort. The appliances, decorations, furniture…..all quality and beautifully placed for comfort. Nothing is missing from games to shower steamers. The home is very clean and cozy. The location on the water with the covered decks….. you couldn’t ask for better. And then on top of all of that…..Cindy is spectacular….excellent service and communication. She has thought of everything and found ways to still provide more. We WILL be back.
