We had such a wonderful time in your home! The space was just what we needed (5 adults and 7 kids)! Plenty of space to gather and eat/play games but also space for everyone to not feel crowded. Plenty of couch spaces and beds! Very clean and organized. We’d love to come back again!
House had everything we needed. Parking was a little tight for 3 trailers and OHV’s but we made it work. Thankful for the fans in the upstairs bedrooms because it got a little warm during the day. Overall great stay and would return!
Wright on the River was a perfect place to celebrate Thanksgiving with our family of 12. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to prepare our meal. The sleeping arrangements made it easy for all to have a separate cozy area. We were concerned that it was located a little ways outside Red River -but that made it special - located in the upper valley! Just beautiful! Thank you for sharing your home with us.
There were 14 of us. Grandma and Grandpa. Our Two sons and their wives and 8 young adult grands. We did have a water well problem which was no one’s fault. They went to lots of trouble to make us comfortable. Wonderful
Wright on the River was perfect for our family. Everyone had a place to sleep and all rooms had a bathroom!! There were some minor problems (toilet stopped up and the sink faucet is very loose-it was just an annoyance). They came out and handled the toilet problem quickly. We also had the friendly neighborhood bear coming thru the property everyday and that was a little scary but not much anyone could do about that but keep the kids close by and an alert eye out at all times. We enjoyed our stay and made some great memories!
We had 9 adults and 7 teenagers and the house was a perfect layout for us! The basement held all 7 teens comfortably and kept all their teenage mess contained and out of site from the rest of the house so the adults could enjoy some peace. The way the kitchen and living room are open allowed us to do family game nights with ease for all 16 of us. They even had a decorated Christmas tree which made our present opening feel more homey and special.
They also had a fully stocked kitchen so we could enjoy family meals together (the only thing missing was a can opener but that ended up being a fun teen activity 😂)
We had one minor issue with a shower draining slowly but they were quick to come out and fix it. And when they were leaving, they went above and beyond and dumped our trash.
It’s been a month since we stayed and the teens still talk about wanting to go back and how it was their favorite vacation!
This place was great to relax and be with the boys. There was plenty of space and the views were incredible. Hosts/property management was efficient, helpful and kind. Wonderful hospitality.
The house was awesome! The deck is where it’s at. Access to the river is a little steep but easily doable. Easy to get to and very nice on the inside. There was plenty of dishes and cookware. If I had one minor complaint it would be there is no trash dumpster. You have to take it to town. Our whole family loved it and will definitely stay here again!
Wright on the River was perfect for our family, loved the location outside of town but still within a few minutes drive. Swings by the River were great to relax and enjoy the River. House was very clean and description was accurate. Will definitely stay here again.
Our family ranged from 6 months to 101 years old. We had 13 people and more than enough room. Very nice cabin and beautiful scenery. If you are staying in the summer you may want to bring a fan for the upstairs bedroom. If we all go again, I will definitely stay here again.
We loved our fall break in this beautiful cabin! Perfect layout for our family of 11. Five kids ages 8-13 loved the lowest level with bunks, den and full bath. Main level was great for grandparents (2 bedrooms/2 baths), large kitchen, dining & family rm w/FP and parents had the 2 upper level King bedrooms with full bath. Red river below is beautiful and melodic! Def a 5 star visit! ❤️
We had a great vacation here. The property is beautiful and the house is perfect for large groups. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly need & everything was very clean. There were a few negatives & I'm not sure we would visit again due to them. The house is advertised as on the river but there wasn't a walkable path. The path to the water is downhill with rocks and was extremely slick. There also is no AC and no ceiling fans in the bedrooms, which was probably the biggest negative for our texas group.
Wright on the River had so much to offer. We loved the proximity to the beautiful river. The swings by the river were very relaxing and the fire pit was wonderful for making s’mores. Layout of the house was great for 13 people ages 3weeks to 85 year old. 2 bedrooms on the main level were great for those who didn’t want to do stairs. The beds were very comfortable and the updated bathrooms and kitchen were all in good working condition and well stocked. Red River was only a 10 minute drive. We enjoyed shopping and eating at Sundance and the burger place near the candy store. Some got fishing license at Sitzmans. The favorite fishing spot was at Cimarron Canyon. We enjoyed a hike to Middle Fork Lake and walked the neighborhood several times. We enjoyed seeing the wildlife as well. We saw deer, elk and a bear. The large wrap around deck with 2 large picnic tables and other deck chairs were used daily. We have taken many summer family trips to Colorado but Red River, NM was awesome and much closer to Amarillo. We will be back!
Our favorite house so far in Red River. This house worked for us, our whole family, eight adults and 7 children. The house was like brand new and spotlessly clean. Large an on three levels, there was room to spread out. We spent most of our time on the huge porch. We enjoyed the fire pit and the river. Already looking at dates to come back and enjoy this beautiful home.
