Peaceful Acres

The 700 acres were beautiful and peaceful. The inlet was accessible and a short walk from the very nice home that was just the right size for our 10 member family. The deer and turkeys were plentiful. Hope to visit again. Hope to

Dayton house on the water

We loved this property and house! Very private and secluded. The house provides several places to sit and relax outside and a large living and kitchen area to bring everyone together. It’s just a short walk to the water. Kayaks were provided. The fishing was excellent. Several varieties caught in the few days we were there.

Peaceful Getaway

We loved staying in this beautiful home! Perfect for large families and families with children. We enjoyed all of the open space outside to run and play, and also seeing all of the deer at night. The beds were comfortable and the bedroom beside the kid’s room is big enough to fit a pack n play if you are traveling with an infant. We appreciated that linens and towels were provided. The kitchen is also stocked with everything you need if you decide to make a meal. The kids were excited that there were board games and cards in the drawers of the kitchen table. The pool table in the garage was also a big hit. The river is a short walk through the back yard perfect for fishing and kayaking. Perfect place for a relaxing family getaway!

Peaceful, private and beautiful

We booked this home on a last minute 5 day trip for our family of 6 plus dogs. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Dayton. The water access is really close to the house where we enjoyed most of our time kayaking, fishing and just hanging out. Great bonfire pit and plenty of free wood around in the tree line. Communication was great, easy check in and check out. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend.
