This is a relaxing, family friendly location. We enjoyed the rocky beach area, the cold river water and so many places to sit and relax. Exactly as pictured and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We plan to stay again!

Great little place. Just a bit dated.
This place was great. Parking was tight, but enough spaces available. Rooms were a bit dated and could use some general maintenance. Never met the front office staff, but check in and out was easy. The view made up for any problem we may have had!!

Our stay was amazing. You are transported back in time to this quaint, little, cabin like room and property. It is quiet, peaceful, and relaxing. Property is right on the river. We sat by the river on the swing in the mornings. I sat on a rock reading a book for hours while listening to the sounds of the river. At night, we were able to make a fire and hang out with other guest at the fire pit.
