Review Score:   10
Summary: Our family of 8 had plenty of room to spread out and enjoyed our stay on the river. The house was clean and well stocked with small touches like travel size shampoo/conditioner/lotion/body wash; small size laundry detergent and dishwasher tabs. Ways to improve: pot holders, baking pans, a Keurig, patio furniture on the upper deck and a small library to read one/ take one. We didn’t have time to use the grill but it looked more than adequate. We were able to bring the pontoon boat to the dock behind the house…the cut coming into the small basin from the river is shallow but usable. KP hole boat ramp is where we launched. The digital front door lock was a challenge, instructions such as “you will hear a tone each time you enter a number” or “enter code and wait three seconds before opening door” would go a long way. Overall, I have zero complaints!
