10/10 Excellent
"This was seriously an amazing stay. We had a wonderful time so close to the city beach and we were even able to borrow some nice igloo coolers for water and Gatorade on our boat days. Those were life savers as you cannot take any disposables on the river. The house was SO clean and comfortable. It was perfect for my large multigenerational family."
