Nice stay for family
Communication with the manager was excellent. The listing said there was a pull out single bed. That was incorrect on VRBO and we brought this to their attention. They provided linens for my 6th person to sleep on the couch. Also listing said "on the river". We could see it from upstairs but thought their was access. Not really a problem. Upstairs only one remote for 2 fans in 2 bedrooms. It might be better for each room to have their own controls. Since it was warm weather, it was a little warm sleeping upstairs, just FYI. All in all, we had a nice stay and so nice to have the whole house!
