Great communication! Everyone had a great time. The deck and couch on it were pretty beat up but we didn't use it that much. Wished the dock was open too. All in all a good time and great location!

Great house for watching eagles on the river. Fantastic casual game room with lots to do. A lot of stairs, making it a challenge for elderly or small children. The house was well stocked. Very pet friendly.

Perfect get-away for a long weekend

We spent 90% of our time here on the shore of the Mississippi (aka the backyard) relaxing, fishing, watching the wildlife and the ships go by. This was a perfect long weekend get-away.

Great stay on the river

We enjoyed our family getaway and were very comfortable during our stay. It was a lot of fun to watch the river roll by and have bald eagles for neighbors! The electronic pinball was a lot of fun. Many thanks.

Beautiful River House

We so enjoyed staying here. A little nook of heaven right along the river. Hosts were amazing, very clean. The fire pit was the hook for us staying there and it was an amazing time sitting around the fire with a group of eagles playing along the river bank. Stay here!

Went for a baseball, loved the relaxation

We were in town for the Bettendorf baseball tournament. These accommodations were perfect for us to be at the field during the day and relax at night. It made our getaway like a little vacation oasis. Thank you, if ever nearby again, would definitely stay again.
