We wish we could have stayed longer. Loved the view of the Chena River from the back porch. The floor downstairs was a little cold, but once we turned on the heat, all was well. After a long day's travel it was nice to have some snacks available when we arrived and as a quick hold-me-over for breakfast.

House faces Chena River. Big windows and a deck make it a delightful place to hang out. Everything is spotlessly clean. The full kitchen and laundry room were amenities we enjoyed. We saw a rainbow in the sunset over the river. That was amazing!
