Pretty Stay... with some issues

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Nice little cottage, on a lovely property. But the roof leaked into the bedroom and on to the bed downstairs. Tough to ignore when it rained all weekend. Hope it’s fixed for the next group!

Gorgeous weekend at River Dunes

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent three unforgettable nights at River Dunes and already wish we could go back. The location is remote in the best way. It is peaceful, scenic, and perfect for unwinding. Every detail felt thoughtfully curated, from the warm hospitality of the staff to the incredible food that made each meal feel like a treat. It’s rare to find a place that feels both luxurious and deeply comforting, but River Dunes nailed it. We left feeling grateful, and just a little bit heartbroken to say goodbye.
