What a beautiful home which created a great sanctuary for us during our long weekend stay. Janelle was AMAZING and responsive. The bedrooms were cozy and the beds were comfortable allowing for peaceful sleep! The river running through the backyard was tranquil and we enjoyed sitting there in the evening to relax. We enjoyed the lovely artwork through the home which was created by Janelle and her nieces. The people of Warren are friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed the Marshal County history museum (a must see) and exploring the Old Mill State Park! We are already planning another trip in the future and will stay at this lovely home again. It exceeded all our expectations!

Thank you so much for your review of your experience. Please stay at the River-house anytime!
We were in the area for a large project. The house was very nice and comfortable. The beds were comfortable there was plenty of hot water. It was nice to find a VRBO near where we were working and didn't have to drive all the way down to Grand Forks.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Janelle’s riverside home in Warren, MN. The accommodations were as described and quite acceptable. Communication, to include check in & out, was spot on and easy to follow. If we are ever back in the area, we would not hesitate to stay here again. 5 star rating in our book, for sure! Thank you again!!!
Our boys played in a baseball tournament in Thief River Falls so we were excited to find this VRBO.
Such a cute house, perfect for our 2 families. Janell was great to work with, responded within seconds of reaching out.
The town of Warren had a lot to offer for being small. We enjoyed the coffee shop, bar & grill, boutiques, pool, and drive in theater. We thought the location of the house was perfect.
We will definitely be back if ever in the area.

Thank you Keri and team for staying at The JW Riverhouse. We are glad you enjoyed your experience, and look forward to your next stay!
The property is clean and easy to enter as expected. The only issue we encountered was that there was no window treatments almost anywhere in the house, just paintings in windows. One room had blinds, but 1 had fallen off and 1 wasn't installed properly so it was very hard to have privacy for things like changing clothes or nursing without using the restrooms knowing the house is located within a neighborhood. This is the only issue i would have addressed in the future.
