Summary: The Turquoise Home is quite special!! I am 73...stayed here solo for most of my week but was joined by my son and granddaughters for several nights. Interior is spotlessly clean and yet comfortable. Kitchen very well-appointed. 4 bedrooms are large and beds comfortable. My granddaughters loved their Princess-like room.The stand-alone sauna was a highlight enjoyed by all...almost hidden down by the water, truly rejuvenating. The hot tub is huge so while my granddaughters didn't swim in the river they were 100% happy in the tub. Deck area is expansive and fully-appointed outdoor kitchen was this home chef's dream. Completing the gorgeous exterior of this riverside home is a firepit and large deck to watch the many boats pass by. We will return!
