The house was very well kept and fully stocked of everything you would need! Several different options to cook your food whether it’s on a grill, smoker, or blackstone. Absolutely stunning views from haven hill, I can’t wait to get back for another stay. Also they provided all the firewood for outdoor fires!
Great place for our family to stay! Large enough that every could have their own space. Tons of updates and personal touches! The kids loved the game room garage. We loved time on the porch and also watching a couple of eagles. Water is only a golf cart ride away. Yard by the house is not huge but grass area by the water access/beach house is! We also loved all of the family and house history details connected with the house. (My favorite part) Thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend and will book again! Thank you!😊
We had 4 families (13 people) come together for our stay in Wagner. The history and unique story of this home was such an added bonus! We loved the “bunker” and ALL the extra added touches! We experienced a blizzard during our stay. Mary and her crew were incredibly accommodating and a pleasure to work with. We are hoping to return in the summer and experience the river and all it has to offer as well!

We all enjoyed our stay, beautiful place and so many “extras”! Love the story about your parents and the building of the house, so interesting. Thank you very much.Robert Smith and family members

We had a group of 13 and never felt cramped or crowded. The attention to detail is impeccable and there was nothing you couldn't find if you needed it. It was stocked with an abundance of things and extras in case you run out. The only thing you need to bring is your clothes, food and personal toiletries. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves whether it was sitting on the porch taking in the view and fresh air, conversating in the dining/kitchen area, watching a movie in the family room, playing a game of Horse/Ladderball/Cornhole outside, playing ping pong/foosball in the garage area, taking a nap, fishing down at the river, cooking or a multitude of other activities. We even had a little friendly, family competition and had a family "Olympics" with the outside games. We recently lost my brother in law on September 10 due to a long battle with cancer and this is just what we needed as a family to unwind and take in God's blessings after dealing with such a huge tragedy in our family. We unplugged and engaged. We were so impressed that we booked it for a week in August. Thank you so much for opening your home to our family. We are forever grateful.
