Great location and great house
This was perfect for our sister reunion. The view is so beautiful and the house provided us with everything we needed and more. Brian, the host, was wonderful, too. He greeted us on arrival and was very responsive to the few questions we had. The best place to stay in Stillwater.

Perfect location
Me and my 3 sisters and our mother stayed here together the end of June. We had a wonderful time. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. The location was perfect. So easy to walk into town to shop or eat. Lovely spot to watch the sun rise over the river. Walking the stairs back up to the house was not a possibility for our mother but the rest of us enjoyed the challenge.
