The Sweet Retreat is SWEEEET!
We absolutely just loved this place. It was easy to find. I really liked the decor. My husband loved that the air conditioning was so cool and they had a recliner!! The place was super clean and we really enjoyed the deck area and dock too. Overall, it was a great stay. We hope to come back soon for a longer stay

Good stay lots of fun.
We enjoyed our stay but the bathroom in the hall way upstairs had no hot water. The shower downstairs was to small. We couldn't even watch tv for the internet kept freezing up.

Enjoyed our time on the River!
We enjoyed our time on the River. The owner was very responsive any time we had a question. Loved having the dock right on the River for our boat, jet ski, kayaks & paddle board!

Perfect weekend getaway!
The house was set up perfectly for our stay and it was just feet from the water. The back porch provided a wonderful space to unwind from being on the water all day. Would definitely go back, the owner is super-helpful and always there to answer any questions I had.
