About this property

Enjoy a grand view of the Ohio River on Morgans Raider Path. The pillared front porch is perfect for reading a book or having a glass of wine in the rockers. The large eat in kitchen opens to the living area with room for everyone. A separate den for those who may like a different program and a third Livingroom/ Familyroom with a bar area open to the loft suite above, great for a little separation. You will love the little house on the point to grill out or have cocktails. The large field that leads to the dock is plenty of room to run around and play some games. Come enjoy a peaceful rural estate, learn a little history, fish and reconnect.
Our property would be great to host a family reunion or other event. There will be an event charge for events that have extra people for the event day, not the overnight guests.

Excellent historic home overlooking the Ohio river.

The home was nicely furnished with three living room areas, a complete kitchen with every thing you need, four bedrooms with comfortable bedding, three full bathrooms and linens supplied. We very much enjoyed the party house right on the river and the adjacent fire pit with comfortable benches. The driveway to the home is steep but very negotiable for cars and motorcycles. We enjoyed the time so much we are considering coming back next year.

Plenty of room

This property was huge in and out. We had more room inside than we needed and there were six of us. The outside fire pit and out building with a deck overlooking the river was a great spot for hanging out at night. The only issue we had was the upstairs toilet was not working at its best and the owner said it was most likely getting replaced. I will still give the property 5 stars because everything else was a plus and I would definitely rent again.

A beautiful home but a few issues

The house has a beautiful porch with a wonderful view of the Ohio river however I should have listened to other reviewers about the clutter and check in issues. All I received prior to the visit was the address, I had to email Linda (the morning of our visit!) for information on how to access the house. Because I didn’t receive any information I looked on line for check in time which stated 3 pm, the owner showed up at 3:20 and was upset that we were there so early (he later said check in was 4). The upstairs toilet didn’t work so I texted the owner who sent over someone but he wasn’t able to fix it. I texted the owner again with an update and was called “a complainer”! The master bedroom was charming but looked like the owners had just left and would be returning soon with the music equipment and personal items. I have given and received high ratings for all my VRBO stays so these comments aren’t because I’m a complainer😁

Quiet and Serene

Beautiful scenery and house. We moved items that were on counter to put our items. Did discuss with owner when there was a occurrence that would need attention. She did contact us promptly for information. Would be nice if there wasn't loud equipment started early in the morning. Would stay there again.
