Glenn is an amazing host with a beautiful home next to the river. And the drive up was beautiful . Overall an excellent spot for my groomsmen and I through the wedding weekend.

Our family had a wonderful stay at Glenn’s place. The place was nice and peaceful—just what I needed for a relaxing wedding weekend getaway. Communication with the him was smooth and easy throughout the stay, and he also went above and beyond by offering a discount when my family wanted to add an extra night. I really appreciated the thoughtful gesture and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!

We are so glad we chose this Airbnb! It was everything we were looking for a beautiful home in a peaceful area. With the creek easily accessible right across the street from the home and plenty of places where Glenn recommended that we can access the creek from other points and have a longer float. We all had a great time including the kids and our dog! We wish we didn't have to leave. Glenn was an amazing host, always making sure we were okay and replied quickly to any questions we had.

River Perch was everything you would want for a vacation house. The view of the river was amazing. We were there for our family reunion, therefore didn’t get to take advantage of everything available to us. A lovely place and would surely go back. Glenn was a great host and always got back with us when we had questions.

My husband, two young children and I stayed for a weekend, and it was amazing! The house and area was beautiful. There was a fire pit within walking distance, and Glenn gave great details on the best place to go kayaking and tubing along the river. Glenn was an amazing host, and he gave great recommendations on what to do in that area. If you have smaller kids who just love to run around outside this is a great place!
