I gave this lovely 5-star property a medium rating and I would love to return but don't know if I will, because...the issue is 5 dogs right next door that are kept in a pen that bark. When we got there Friday and moved our luggage into the upstairs whenever they caught sight of us or heard us talking or moving around on the porch, there was barking. Inside we could hear barking off and on that afternoon. We contacted the owner about this issue and from that time Friday evening and all day Saturday it was quiet. On Saturday evening, we were sitiing down by the river access that you can walk down to and enjoy.
As we walked back to the house through the yard, the neighbor next door had several dogs off leash walking with her dogs in her yard, her dogs caught sight of us and came running up to us barking and growling ( no fence) in not a friendly manner, it scared me because I don't know if the dogs were going to bite us or not. The dogs did not bite us and returned to their yard but it was an unsettling experience.
Not sure if I want to return as these dogs are not people friendly and can be noisy.
This property is a very lovely and a relaxing place to be right on the river, but I don't know if I would return because of the dogs next door.
Hopefully the owner of the Carriage House can have this issue resolved.
