Waterfront Home at the River Haven Sanctuary

Jeff was easy to work with. Communications were prompt and professional. The property had a unique charm and is bordered by an animal sanctuary and a watershed p[roperty. A small fishing pond is right outside your front window. Only place I know of where you could swim in a pool, roast smores and commune with donkeys all at the same time. The house was spacious and the kitchen well equipped. It easily accommodated our group of 6 adults and 4 children. We had a blast.

We are a family of 15- 8 adults 7 children and 4 dogs! We had the best time! The property is sprawling- we played bocci, used the fire pit, hot tub etc. The property is fenced and the animals are enclosed separately. Lots of room to cook, eat and hang out in two large family rooms with tv’s! We had a ball and highly recommend!! The Maiocco’s July 2025

fantastic , house pool was great

Fantastic property, perfect location and incredible host. Not a single mumble, winge, or moan from any of our 15 member party.

From ages 79 to 4 months, every member of our family of 16 really enjoyed their stay. The pool was lovely, although pretty cold. However, the seating around the pool was super comfortable to enjoy the sun. The hot tub was a hit - used multiple times a day by several of us! The refrigerator and freezer capacity was amazing and made it a breeze to stock up on groceries for the week for our army! The kids enjoyed the game room, the adults enjoyed the outside seating as well as walks around the property. The animal sanctuary tour was a fun addition to our stay. The hosts were very responsive, helpful and accommodating all week. This house and these hosts really set the bar high for all future vacation plans we will make. Honestly, the only suggestion we have for improving the experience would be adding window covering options in the bedrooms. The windows offered stunning views and no one was concerned about privacy but it did make it difficult to sleep in. Then again, more awake time to enjoy our vacation, I guess.

Family members from Maine, Connecticut and Delaware gathered at this site and loved it. The salt water pool was a big hit with the kids. Everyone enjoyed the animals, despite the mules saying hello during the night. The house was lovely— large rooms, comfortable couches, big dining table. Best of all were Lucy and Jeff our top-notch hosts.

The kids loved the animals, the nature walk path, game room and the swimming pool.

This property worked so well for us because there were so many places within the house ,the pool house all the different areas outside. Our ages ranged from 13 yo girl, 2 18 yo (boy/friend girl friend ) 17 yo boy, 2 19 yo (boy friend girl friend, 21 yo girl, 24 yo girl, 23 yo (boy friend girl friend) Husband /wife, father,girl friend and us/79&80 ages. Because of set up of rooms no boy girl friends slept together. The short walk to kayaking,etc was used every day! So many outside activities. Always able to eat dinner inside with everyone 😀😀😀

This was the perfect place for a weekend with friends. A great kitchen, great common spaces for us all to hang out, and a beautiful property. We were only sad that the rain kept us from fully enjoying all that the property had to offer.

We choose this property for a yearly reunion of old friends. About 7 in total. Everything about our stay exceeded our expectations. The host was very accommodating. The property itself is one of a kind and guaranteed not to disappoint. Highly recommended for a unique weekend getaway. Thanks Jeff!
