Everything was clean and as described. Elizabethtown is cute and hopefully gets few more little shops. Riverside mercantile was great! Our dog seemed comfortable and relaxed. Views of river were fantastic.

The property was as described and was a great ‘home away from home’. It was nice to have a place to relax each night after riding the motorcycle all day. We will definitely be returning!

Elizabethtown home
We had a good time and really enjoyed ourselves the house was very clean and well stocked for the most part the house said it’s big enough to hold 6 adults and 1 child but that was a bit much for the house. There wasn’t a enough room for us to all sit in the living room and watch a movie nor was there enough table space for us to sit and eat a meal the table was small and only accompanied 4 people but we made it work all in all we had a great weekend
