We spent 3 weeks at the RIZZ. We had a very nice stay. The house was very kid friendly and had toys for little ones. All of the mattresses were very comfortable. The kitchen came fully stocked and there were plenty of towels and wash clothes. The owners were quick to respond with the few questions I had. It was a very quiet neighborhood with nice views of Thompson Lake. I would stay here again.
