We all loved our stay, such a beautiful home and amazing property right on the river. Our dog couldn't get enough of playing in the river and we enjoyed floating in tubes from Rifle River park on Greenwood right back to the house in about an hour. Such a great place to vacation!

Beautiful home, very clean, nicely appointed. Lot is large and private (except for kayakers and tubers on Saturday, which is fun and welcome). We have stayed here twice and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

The property was well maintained and there was plenty of wood for late night bonfires. We had beautiful weather and enjoyed our stay for the 5th year. We will be back!

What a beautiful, quiet getaway! Great place for young families. The river is shallow enough for even little kiddos to touch the bottom and the current is slow enough you don't have to worry about elementary ages playing and exploring all day. Hosts are responsive and kind. I definitely see why so many people come back, year after year.

Great Clean Home

This is a fantastic property with the river just steps away in the backyard. We loved being able to swim and relax right at home. The neighborhood is peaceful and quiet, yet conveniently close to a small grocery store and Dollar General

This was our second time staying here. It has all of the comforts of home. Our fur baby really enjoys the river. We did see some squirrels and a couple rabbits along with some chipmunks. The highlights as far as wildlife were the eagle that flew over the river and the muskrat that came up on the bank and filled up on the grass. We had a great time and would visit again.

I absolutely loved my stay here. It was quiet, peaceful, the river was beautiful. The house was clean, comfortable and a very homey feeling. I 100% plan to come back again. I would say to anyone with small kids and animals to be careful at night, there was a pack of coyotes running around nearby.
