We loved our stay. It was a great place for the kids to play or nap during the day, and let the adults hang out after the kids went to bed. It worked well for our family reunion.

Great Stay!

This was a very nice and comfortable place to stay for our large family group. The kitchen was nice and there were two tables so that we could all sit and eat and play games. The beds were comfy and we enjoyed our stay in Nauvoo.

Wouldn’t say it was “riverfront “ view.Ice maker should have been turned on ahead of time.Neighbor said parking was allowed on gravel in front of house which helped. The poles with house number for parking are too close together to utilize what’s indicated.Need a coffee maker - glad we brought a 30 cup.The space was great for us.

Beautiful and spacious gathering place

Our family group stayed here, grandparents, parents, teens and tweens. Plenty of room for privacy, but open areas for being together as well. It is in a quiet location, but close to the temple and historical sites. Owners were excellent with their friendly advice. Would definitely rent here again!

Perfect for big families

We had two families and a few friends stay at Deseret Manor. There plenty of room for all of us. It’s close to the sites- we still drove back and forth because we had children. The place was very clean and the host very helpful. Would definitely stay again.

A delightful home in a delightful city

The place was just as stated in the descriptions. We had just about perfect weather. The house accommodated several groups doing a variety of activities inside and out without feeling too crowded. Nice quiet location.

Great Family Gathering Place

This is the second year we have used this property for a whole family gathering. We have a wide range of kids with all sizes. The little kids loved the yard as all the older kids and adults loved the spacious living/kitchen area for visiting. We had 18 people with beds for all. Great place to stay!

Perfect for our family reunion

The property was clean and well maintained. Everything worked as it should have. The location was great, within blocks of many attractions including the temple. It was a quick drive or a long walk to Main Street Nauvoo. If you have a larger group, I highly recommend this site.
