Family getaway

We loved this place. Excellent size, the screen porch with the pool table was amazing. We tried to book again because we enjoyed it so much we were going to add an unplanned return trip but it was already booked. We will definitely return!

Still a nice place!!!

This was my second stay at the riverfront and its still a nice out of the way place. Clean and simple, the pool table on the back patio is great for friends to pass some time. I just hope the update the TVs to smart TVs so I could use my firestick or log into my NETFLIX, but that was not a big issue for me.
