Unique feels with this riverside cabin

These owners have thought of everything, from snacks tucked in a coffee nook in the upper bedroom area, to every sort of outdoor feature you can enjoy in summer or winter. This was my favorite place to stay that I have ever been to. I felt transported to another culture of river cabin elegance with a unique flare. This is definitely a place to revisit again!

Christmas Holiday w Family

Great safe yard space for our dog- wonderful spacious bedrooms with great bedding- slept so well at night. Loved the coffee station to get us going in the morning and the living room overlooking the River was a great place for us to gather before our family holiday events. Nicely located between Chillicothe and Peoria. Would love to see it in the summer with all the trees in bloom! Love the outdoor porches and balconies outside!

About the host

Hosted by Kim Bryan Russell

We are Kim and David Russell. We are parents to many and grandparents to many. We also have our 4 doodles who allow us to live with them. We work hard and love to travel. I love hosting and will only provide a space that I would enjoyed I were traveling. I work hard to make sure you have the cleanest and most relaxing environment as well as fun items to enjoy….bikes, kayaks, yard games. Please come and enjoy this unique creative space we worked so hard on.

Why they chose this property

I’ve owned the house since 1995 with my first husband. He passed in 2015. The property needed a lot of help. I tend to be artistically inclined and drawn to the eclectic things you can do to bring old to new again. My current husband is a work horse and up for anything so if I had a vision of what I wanted he worked with me. I also have great artistic friends. The house became what I knew it could be and hopefully you will enjoy it. Come and relax, sit on the decks by the water, use the kayaks and bicycles provided. Yard games also and the yard is fully fenced. I am pet friendly for the well behaved pups. I July ask that waste be picked up and they not be left alone uncrated if you leave the house. I’ve provided a crate.
