We loved the drive to the house. There were great views of the river. The home had everything needed to enjoy the river, but our stay was too cold to enjoy the river. Overall, the home was just what we were looking for! ##### Rebecca C.

We were in town for a graduation, so siblings (and their young children) were all there. There were enough beds for us all, and the kitchen/dining area was cozy for us all. The younger kids enjoyed the yard, while parents could sit on the deck by the river. We had lots of events to attend over the weekend, so hadn't planned on using the house as a "river getaway", so I can't comment on the recreational aspects. Thanks for welcoming us. ##### Carolyn P.

We stayed as we are in between houses and wanted to have a larger place to host and cook the holiday meal. I will say that the house could definitely use some updates and also a deep cleaning. Generally, it was comfortable and the views of the river are beautiful. The whole house was well stocked with just about anything we needed that we forgot to bring. I would have loved it more during warm weather but even during the winter, it was comfortable. ##### Deirdre O.

Had a great time with family. Justin was very quick to respond to any needs. Some improvements from last year which was great. Dock still a little challenging. Downstairs mattresses could use an upgrade. Overall the location and space of the home is perfect! We really enjoyed vacation 2024 and hope to plan another for 2025! ##### Michele W.

However, one of us left an aero-bed blow up mattress in the lower level by the ping pong table. Is it possible if we can swing by and get it in a few weeks. One of the guys will be in the area. Please let me know. Thank you very much for allowing us to use your rental location. It was a great time. ##### Jeffrey F.

Felt secluded from neighbors which we enjoyed. Plenty of rooms and space for family. Loved large kitchen and blackstone. Justin was responsive to concerns/questions. Negatives: old AC units/musty, both showers upstairs had trouble draining, coffee pot very slow. House definitely could use some updates but being right on the river and the views definitely outweighed any negatives. ##### Michele W. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### S B. 16 Oct 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Eclectic & roomy but needs cleaning The area is remote and lovely. The house is on the river so the view is great. Upon entering you see clearly dated and worn furniture, but the ample bedrooms and baths more than made up for that. The big negative was the lack of cleanliness. It appears someone made an attempt to clean, but sloppily made beds, cloudy, splattered windows, urine on the toilet bowl, grease on the stove...all made it feel dirty. That being said, the host was very quick to respond to entry issues and a broken toilet. We would not stay here again, but with a serious cleaning it would be a good option for a big group. ##### S B. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 18 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Homesteaders This is the 2nd year we have stayed here for HOA. The house is old but has a story and i like that. There is plenty of room for the whole group to have our own space. The kitchen has everything we needed to cook our own meals. The view of the river is nice. We love the driveway to the house. Its filled with cows and lots of wildlife. Never know what you will see. Town isnt to far away. Overall this is a nice place to stay for our little get away. We enjoyed it. On the downside like last year the tub in the upstairs master bath does not drain properly so your standing in ankle deep water as you shower. The 2nd bedroom down the hall had an infestation of bugs on the window that somehow found their way into the room. Again like last time the grill was filthy so my husband spent time cleaning it so the next people can enjoy it on the deck. There was also a cast iron skillet that wasnt properly cleaned so we had to work on that to be able to enjoy our eggs. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lindsay R. 27 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great cabin!

Lots of space for our family to gather. Lots of sleeping areas pet friendly. Great water pressure in showers. Large kitchen. The cleanliness was our only problem. The shower curtains liners wear moldy and the shower curtain themselves were stained and dirty, I took the curtains down and washed them. I bought new shower curtain liners and installed them before my family arrived. The house had not been dusted ina long time, the surfaces of tables were very dirty. The curtains were filthy. ![Moldy shower curtain liners](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7ab33b84-f7e8-44c5-a69a-cfade49bd3b7-1759238414736.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Stained shower curtain](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6b014320-e08e-473e-a40f-8fce6852ed46-1759238415417.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Cobweb on light in kitchen and yes there was a snake hanging on it](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f6e2be7f-5496-4546-be80-85d0a46e6b82-1759238413382.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Dusty fans throughout house](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4d4ddbcd-cafe-4a7d-b199-cedf51271da3-1759238414490.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Kathy D.

The new dock was enjoyed immensely by all! Feedback regarding negatives were that the house had a lot of dust, new kitchen stove and oven is needed (bottom oven still does not work), new fan is needed for screened in porch, and a new mattress is definitely needed in the 2nd bedroom in the basement (larger bed has smaller mattresses stacked underneath and is very uncomfortable). We will say that the positives were plenty and Justin was great with all of our needs! Thank you for another great family vacation full of memories at “the river house!” ##### Michele W.

Wish we would have planned for more time on the deck and utilizing the river! Great bunkhouse/summer camp feel, and perfect for large groups, can't wait to return with the kids and family! ##### Paul Jr A.

We were pleasantly surprised by all the cookware, kitchen gadgets and well stocked "pantry". We enjoyed the fire pit in the evenings and spent a relaxing Sunday watching the Indy 500 and painting porch leaners on the back deck. Was a nice relaxing weekend. ##### Mary S.

Our party of 7 ranged in age from 25 to 80 and all had a great time hiking, driving Skyline Drive, and enjoying the fire pit and the river. The owner was very accommodating and responsive. If I had any constructive criticism, it would be the neatness of the outside area - the grass was a little tall in places and there were lots of yard equipment and gear on a concrete pad out back. Had we had children, it might have been a concern. ##### Anthony P.

Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Trudy L. 18 Jul 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing Girls Weekend Well stocked pantry, lots of toys for the river available for use. The river was a big low so the water wasn't moving much. Bathrooms were upgraded recently and clean. Some of the beds could use new mattresses. The firepit was excellent and firewood was available for use. The kitchen had all kinds of gadgets and serving ware. Had wifi and cell service. Beautiful hardwood floors upstairs. We met the manager while he was getting an estimate to redo the dock and clear out the view to the river, would like to see the transformation when it is complete. ##### Trudy L.

We didn’t mind that it was older or may needs some updates, or even the spider webs (it’s expected in this environment) but it wasn’t very clean. We found old water bottles around the house, dirty wash clothes in the bathrooms, bathtubs were dirty, dirty linens, and other random trash. Not sure if the cleaning service isn’t taking care of things or that’s how it is. I did contact the owner to let them know but never heard back. ##### Nicole H. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2024 ---
