Short but sweet stay - great girls trip away
We had a great time, even though it was a short stay. Clean and in a great location! We did partly reserve it for the hot tub shown in the amenities listing, but it was nowhere to be found, which was strange. We also couldn't figure out how to use the firepit (no instructions anywhere) and the outdoor space needed some cleaning, but we are low maintenance and had fun regardless! If there were more labels/instructions, and something other than decaf coffee in the "complimentary" cupboard, it would have been perfect!

Overnight Stay
We enjoyed our night but were sad there was no propane in the outdoor firepit. It was a nice evening and we were looking forward to enjoying the outdoor space. Also the bedroom balcony had not been cleaned of cigarettes and drink cans.

Quiet Oasis by the river
We had an amazing time at this beautiful little townhouse on the river. The patio with soft lighting was perfect for hosting our small group of friends & family. Frank was a great host and responded quickly when I had a question about the fire pit. Will definitely book again!
