"Overall good stay! Very beautiful scenery outside, right on the river, we loved that! But the gravel road coming in is long and time consuming to travel to get back to town, the hills are steep and rough, especially pulling a boat. So we enjoyed staying in and making our meals, not much to choose from in town to eat. The front entrance needs new boards on the steps and the bathroom floor needs some cracks sealed."
