My family stayed here during the week of Thanksgiving. The property is in a very lovely setting, especially in the fall. The size of the house is perfect for a family gathering. Thank you for a lovely stay.
Very secluded and a great house for a family reunion.

I had such a peaceful stay at John's place. The setting was incredibly tranquil, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The garden was beautiful, and I loved sipping my morning Tea on the patio. Highly recommend for anyone looking to unwind.
We had a wonderful weekend getaway at this property! Our group of 10 enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit, game room, and sat in the great room and on the deck enjoying the most beautiful view! The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable with private bathrooms.
The space was everything I wanted and more. Very peaceful space to host some friends for a relaxing weekend. The kitchen was phenomenal for family dinner and the porch was a great size for everyone to relax. Will be coming back!
We had a very mini college reunion of sorts for a weekend and loved every minute of staying in this beautiful home. There was plenty of space for 10 of us and it never felt cramped or stuffy. We also loved the deck and getting to enjoy the view all weekend. We had no complaints and would love to return.
The house was great and had a ton to do! Which was awesome for us because it rained while we were there. The foosball, ping pong and air hockey tables provided a ton of entertainment.
A spacious house in a quiet spot with a great view
The place was lovely. The only issue we had was that there were no printed instructions for how to operate the jacuzzi and such, and it took the host hours to respond to questions.
This property was amazing. We had a large family get together that included multiple adults and children of various ages, and the space was absolutely perfect. It would be almost impossible to beat the view from the back porch of the river. We had everything we needed and thoroughly enjoyed our time together in this house.
Wonderful home in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. Everything was very clean and organized. Bathrooms stocked with Shampoo, Conditioner and body wash, as well as toilet paper and clean towels. Hope to be back next year
This property was absolutely wonderful! It is a beautiful river front home with breathtaking views. It is a very well maintained property and included all the essentials you could need. The house accommodated our family of 12 comfortably. We were traveling with children and the expansive grounds and playground were a huge hit. Communication with the property manager was easy. We highly recommend this home for your next vacation!

This was by far the best Property we have ever stayed at. We were in town for a cheer competition with 6 moms and 7 daughters. The upstairs room had beds for every girl plus some! The house was extremely clean and the host literally though about EVERYTHING. From local menus, to games for all ages and even to-go containers in the kitchen! (which we always forget!) It was so comfortable and enjoyable, no one wanted to leave!
We loved this property, the views, and the privacy. We very comfortably fit a group of 12, but could have easily fit more.
My only complaint is communication with guests could be improved. The owner does not specifically provide any instructions on how to operate the hot tub in advance, even though this could easily be put in the welcome email or on-property binder. After many attempts to reach the owner, it took until our last day for the hot tub to be operational, as maintenance was sent hours before we left. Like many, I always filter on properties with hot tubs, so this was disappointing.
What a beautiful place to spend a weekend catching up with old friends! The views are incredible and the kitchen is a dream. We were a little bummed that the hot tub wasn't working, but had tons of fun regardless.
This house and property is fantastic! Clean, very comfortable, well accommodated and decorated. So much room both inside and out, and endless activitied as well. Especially appreciated the great view also! Thank you
We stayed here with a group of Moms and daughters for a lacrosse tournament that was about 40 mins away. The place was perfect for a large group with plenty of parking, bedrooms, showers and areas to relax. There was plenty to keep the girls busy with the hot tub, ping pong table, pickle ball court, etc., which was fantastic. The kitchen was also a great size for cooking for the group. Thanks for a great experience!
Rented for a low-key weekend with some friends. Very private location with great views of the river. Overall a very nice house and excellent communication with the host/manager when we had questions.
we were in town for a baseball tournament and stayed with friends and family, the house was beautiful and met our needs. The communication was excellent and we would recomend this home.
We were a group of 10 with ages from 83-22. The house suited us perfectly. With stunning views and all our basic needs met, this beautiful house provided us with everything we needed.
We stayed at River Haven with our family. The home was very clean and comfortable with a lot of space for everyone. It was great for kids since there are bunk beds and even has 2 high chairs. The house is beautiful and is in a very quiet and private location. It has a great view of the river which makes sitting on the large deck great. The property manager was also very quick to respond when we had questions.
We had a group of 18 moms and daughters, and this place was perfection. The rooms were spacious, the kitchen was well-stocked, the basement was filled with games/activities for the kids, and the view was incredible. The house was clean and tidy, and the host was clear and accurate with descriptions/information. Although we didn’t use the two basement bedrooms, the option to have more rooms with privacy would have been wonderful if needed.The kids spent a majority of the time outside on the playset which was great for kids under 10, and we spent the evenings on the large deck soaking in the stunning view of the river. The property was very private and absolutely perfect for our fun weekend away.
My husband and I rented the home for us, our adult children and our grandchildren for an out of town wedding. It's a beautiful, newish home with a perfect layout for several families vacationing together. All the bedrooms are not in one place with everyone on top of each other; the house layout creates privacy for different families and several gathering spaces.
The kitchen is large and well stocked and the bathrooms have plenty of clean white towels. The only thing we were not aware of, and we should have realized, is the house sits way back off the main road. It's a beautiful location on the river but the access road is a long gravel driveway. It's scenic and private, we just wouldn't have taken the Maserati, lol! SUV is best! But we loved our stay and we would like to go back when we have more time to explore the area. There's a lot of hiking and fun River activities available very close by (fishing and rafting). Hint to Owner: It would be awesome if a path were cleared to be able to access the river from the property!!
