*Note: This is a gorgeous property, and I get numerous requests for holding events here such as weddings, family reunions, etc however, we are in a neighborhood and must be respectful of our neighbors, so we can no longer allow events. The city will not allow it. Small gatherings are OK as well as photo shoots with pre-approval. If you are wondering if your idea or gathering is considered an "event" please ask, it is possible that we can work something out.
*Please note that this property is not recommended for elderly/handicapped folks who have difficulty walking as there are stairs to access the property and yard.

Summary: Fantastic location and spectacular backyard on the river. Very quiet residential area. Lots of restaurants and shopping a short distance away. We rented both the main property and the sweet suite for our group. No complaints and would definitely stay again.
