The family that runs it is very kind and they provided excellent extras in the house. That said, we were woken up regularly throughout every night by loud cars and trucks bombing down the road. The house sits close to the highway, but even closer to the main artery into a major subdivision. We described it like pitching a tent under the freeway. It made for unpleasant evenings, difficult naps for our daughter, and uncomfortable lounging outside. In addition, the property is next to a public park where people would sit in their cars with the radio blasting. Also, this house does not stand alone. It is part of a multi-unit property and there was construction of a giant home about 20 feet away during the week. There were no cut in fees for having the construction noise while we were there. I suggest spending some of that money on insulating the house and upgrading windows. This is obviously an issue since there were bowls of ear plugs in every room, but I felt duped because I didn't read about the noise issue when I was researching this house. We spent thousands of dollars expecting a tranquil vacation of lounging around, and were discouraged. For the same amount of money we could have stayed in ocean front property, but thought a river scene would be fun. This is our 3rd annual trip and we will not be staying here again.
