Everything was very nice. The proprty is beautiful. Communication was great. There are some items that could use upkeep. Such as the steps off the party barn, could use new design and updating. As there are some nails sticking out and the wood is begining to giveway. All in all it was an amazing stay and will definitely look to return!

Simple and Quiet Spot on River
We found the property to be in well maintained order with a covered common area for games, cooking and eating. A quiet and private spot on the beautiful Medina River in the back of a well-established neighborhood. We had cozy and clean accommodations. Unfortunately our stay coincided with historical flooding and our trip was cut short. The host was very understanding of our change of plans. My only recommendation would be to add some type of indoor seating in the bedrooms.
