"We really enjoyed our stay. The house is well kept with soft clean towels and bed linens. There was all kinds of comfortable seating to choose from . The screen house and deck were the star of the show for us. We enjoyed sitting by the water and observing all that nature had to offer. The kayaks were ready to go and we just had to drop them in the water at the bottom of the ramp. It was a fantastic get away!"

"Kurt, Sharon & their home were amazing hosts to our group. We had 3 families with kids ranging from 8 months to 13 years. The home was well appointed to keep everyone entertained and off screens :)Everything is organized and descriptive, including which lights are on the switches and which dishes go where in the cabinets.The home is tucked back, well off the main road, right on the river, quiet, and relaxing.The dock was the fan favorite, with great fishing. At night you can see owls perched on the cypress trees and listen to the symphony of nature, as a fire burns in the pit.The town and Rainbow River is just down the street 15 minutes away.We would happily return again!"
