Absolutely stunning - the views and the wildlife will capture your heart. The home was immaculate and spacious; the huge picture windows showcasing the river was spectacular! We loved hanging out on the kitchen island for breakfast and dinner, and we enjoyed our happy hours on the beautiful deck (FYI - there is another equally fabulous deck downstairs).
The only downsides were:
- The advertised outdoor gas fire-pit and the indoor fireplace were not available. The fire-pit was removed, per the local property manager, due to wind and fire concerns (understandable). I'm assuming the indoor fireplace was not available because the weather wasn't cold enough. Personally I believe the listing should state this information as we booked this house, in part, because of the fire-pit and fireplace.
- The heater (?) made a very loud noise that came through the vents at night. It was so loud that I thought this was because of the trains going by. It was actually coming from something in the house. Our friends said the sound was muted downstairs.
Overall, this home is a gem. It's close to hikes, wineries, and breweries. It's also a peaceful haven (during the day) for those looking to unwind from today's world.
