My husband & I stayed here for an early Thanksgiving, so that we could visit with family, our grown kids could come and go, and i could make a dinner to take to my Mother, who lives near by. As we are from out of town now, this property served our needs perfectly. There are grocery stores nearby. The property is lovely with a rustic, whimsical, and historical decor. There are unique decor items every direction you look! Great conversation pieces, indeed! The house seems to just keep going- it’s huge, yet intimate. A perfect retreat for a large or small family gathering, with pool, ping pong, air hockey and darts in the game room area downstairs. The VIEWS… breathtaking. I hope we can return in the summer months as well, to better appreciate the winding river below. However, this property is beautiful any time if year. I also appreciated how well stocked the kitchen is. Most anything you may need, you will likely find it.
