Stayed one night while in town for teen daughter’s soccer game. The price was comparable to the hotels and it was sooo much better than a hotel. Very homie vibe. The tv’s were great. Loved the river out back. I cooked dinner and found the kitchen to be well equipped. Great stay!

Wonderful place to stay! We enjoyed having a central place where our family could visit us and enjoy family time while we were in the area. The hosts were wonderful to work with. Loved having a clean quiet environment. Our pets were welcome as well and we definitely appreciated that!

A great open feeling in the main living area. Bright, comfy, with all that you need for your stay. Being on the river is a bonus for relaxing on the patio. Private. Communication with owner is excellent. Easy access to and from Cherry Valley.

We loved our stay here. It was right on the river so we stayed on the back deck most every day. Cherry Valley is adorable. Cute, quaint little village but everything we needed was a short walk. The cottage was nice & clean. The host was accommodating & kind. We sould stay here again.

This place is awesome. Lovely oak wood trim everywhere! We stayed on the patio the whole time overlooking the river. We watched the geese, ducks, and even a bald eagle. Cherry Valley is like a hallmark movie town. So cute, quaint, and everyone was kind. Lots of axtivities and the nocest park I have ever seen. It was BIG! Diners, shopping, and other services are walking distance. We stayed here for a week and loved it. The jacuzzi tub was also very relaxing. The flower gardens were also so impressive. Lots of charm and comfort. We would stay here again. The host was accomodating & kind as well.
