Wonderful Place to stay in Casper
Our CO family of 5 traveled to meet a MT family of five and all stayed in this home very comfortably. It is laid out well for two families.

Incredible house in the North Platte
We had 4 couples staying at the house and it was perfect for our needs. The house is clean, beds are comfortable, AC works great and has plenty of room to accommodate a large group. We played pool one night and that was a lot of fun. This is my 5th time staying here and we will be back again!

Great house
The house by the river is more than the photos and description! Great house. And it is outfitted more like a hotel. If one needed a pillow, blanket, towel, soap they had it! Kitchen and grill worked great. Firepit and table were fantastic. Pool table. This place has it all. Highly recommend and am going back next year!

Comfortable
My husband had passed away they were all in town for funeral, and my family and I rented this home so we could all be together. It was The most comfortable atmosphere and big enough for all of us. It made things feel a little better being in such a homey place. Thank you so much!!

Everything was perfect! Such a pretty view
It was evident Liz had put a lot of thought into everything. Features were updated and nice. The view of the river was gorgeous. Everything was clean and great. Only thing missing for our group of ladies was a hair dryer! :) But overall we were VERY HAPPY.

Annual fishing trip
Me and seven friends stayed here for the first time 4/2-4/5/23. It was a great place for my group. Our first day on the river happened to be the day Casper received a record snowfall of 26.7”. Liz stayed in constant contact with us making sure we were okay and safe. She made arrangements to get the driveway plowed or we would have never gotten out. We will definitely be back. Thanks!
