The property was amazing. We loved the private and peaceful access to the river. All other reviewers have covered all of this and they are accurate. Clean. Beautiful. Great communication! We really felt welcome. The owner's attention and care for guests were very apparent, sincere, and appreciated. Unfortunately, I did not able rate 5 stars due to one detail, and I think it is important for any guest to understand this before renting, and this was not stated in the property listing at the time we booked and rented.
The guest suite, while having private access and being private itself, shares a full-length common wall with the next suite and it is occupied by a permanent resident. This was disclosed in the property renter's manual provided on site. It even asks you (in the manual) not to disturb the neighbor next door. We didn't have a problem with that. But, what I did find was that the wall between the units is VERY thin. Almost all sound made it through. We could hear every word and detail of conversations, phone calls, TV shows, walking, and music when he was in his suite/apartment. I'm sure he could hear everything we were saying and doing as well. This made me self conscious of everything we did and said. I brought my small Bluetooth speaker and wanted to play some music while we relaxed, but since we could hear every detail of the neighbor's music, I felt bad playing our own.
If this doesn't bother you, then you should absolutely rent this space. All other aspects were great. You don't have a kitchen and full amenities, but we knew that going in and had planned to be exploring and enjoying local life and cuisine anyway. We absolutely loved the property itself and spent many hours by the river which is amazing. We were also EXTREMELY impressed with Steve and his family. Very gracious and welcoming. Great communication. But if I had known of the adjacent wall and sound transmission and that we would not have a quiet place to ourselves as the listing indicated, I would not have reserved this as peace and quiet were what we were looking for.
