The Space:

Enter through the front porch and step into the main level of our three-story river home. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals during your stay, with the dining area and large farmhouse table just to the left. To the right, the main living room offers comfortable seating, a 55-inch TV, and beautiful views of the water.



With two separate living areas, multiple outdoor spaces, and sleeping accommodations spread across all three levels, the home gives groups plenty of room to gather together while still having space to relax. Outside, the large grassy waterfront area, fire pit, dock, and kayak make it easy to spend as much time outdoors as you do inside.
