Take in the river view while relaxing inside our Cedar Barrel Sauna.

Home includes modern kitchen with top of the line appliances (gas range, oversized fridge, Bosch dishwasher, and Nespresso Virtuo coffee machine), renovated main bedroom, and 4-season sunroom with large windows overlooking the water. Warm up indoors by the gas fire place or watch the sunset by the outdoor fire pit along the riverfront. Step into the cedar barrel sauna to take in the spectacular river view, available for guest use all year long.
