Beautiful home in serene location
Cannot say enough positive things about this beautiful home. Location on the water is scenic and relaxing. Floor plan is amazing for a large group upstairs and down. Home is outfitted with every necessity. Such a nice touch to have a lit Christmas tree awaiting us. Our adult children have already requested a redo here for next year. Grateful for wonderful memories made.

Great Fall Stay by the River!
My husband and I come to the area at least once a year. This year our family stayed for the weekend and he and I spent 2 days alone. The house was amazing, campfire, cooking together, time spent in North East. Lots of good conversations and laughter! Our 2 year old grandson said "I had fun.... at river house!" We would stay at this house again. Thanks E.B. for making it a wonderful stay.

Great spot!
This house is great! Right on the water, quiet neighborhood, big house with lots of space! Beds were comfortable, beautiful views of the water even from inside the house. Host communicated everything you would ever need to know clearly in email ahead of check-in and printed at the house- very good communication! We would definitely stay here again!

Lovely family get-together
We enjoyed our second stay at this beautiful house on the bay. We particularly enjoyed watching the bald eagles fishing in front of the house and seeing the sun and moon rising over the water. Lots of space for everyone to spread out and yet big enough tables for everyone to sit down as a family. Thank you for the memories.

Wonderful location
It was a wonderful location with a gorgeous view. There was plenty of space for all 13 of us but the house does need some updating. The biggest addition to the property that I would recommend would be a dock. The host was very nice and accommodating.

Great location for our family gathering
My 3-generation family of 9 had a great time overall at this house. It is roomy, comfortable, and well-stocked with almost everything needed for an enjoyable stay. The owner’s helpful suggestion of a fresh crab meat source gave us the opportunity to have amazing homemade crab cakes for several dinners. The four under-10 kids in our family had lots of fun in the nicely-shallow water and little beach at the house, and we all enjoyed the quiet surroundings, beautiful views, and shorebirds. The only reason for the loss of a star in my opinion was the condition of the deck surface: we did not realize until my young grandson had gotten a painful splinter that the deck should not really be walked on barefoot.
