we are 4 ladies who stayed here. The house was very comfortable, the beds were great, the hot tub was exactly what we wanted. The appliances worked well as did the TV. We plan to stay here again at a future date!

We stayed in this home for three nights this past week. The listing shows and describes a vastly different property than what we discovered upon arrival. The only accurate part of the listing is that of the kitchen. The rest of the home was clean, but definitely not "updated" or "elegant". It's located in a random neighborhood on a densely populated narrow street of unkept homes on the river, and was quite noisy at times. The sunken hot tub featured on the listing photo doesn't exist. The property is overgrown with trees and bamboo, and we could barely even see the river from the deck. The hot tub looked clean but the chlorine smell was too overpowering. The entire outdoor space was covered in dead leaves, the BBQ was filthy, outdoor cushions were moldy, and the descent down to the river was covered in brush and leaves. It was steep, slippery and treacherous with no handrail to hold on to. The "boat dock" is just floating plywood with no way to secure a kayak or human trying to get in or out of the water. Two kayaks were under the deck stored amongst other junk. The "cozy fireplace" was non-functioning with a decorative fake log centerpiece inside. Two of the bedroom fan chains were broken and stuck on high all the time. It's now obvious as to why there are no street view pictures or current river view pictures of the property in the listing. We will never book with this management company again. We grossly overpaid and they under-delivered.

We enjoyed the comfortable home with a lovely outlook over the river. The neighborhood is quiet and our time on the river, sitting on the deck and in the hot tub was peaceful and relaxing. Would definitely return.
