This listing was spot on. Our vacation was planned as a graduation present for my daughter and it was awesome. Plenty of room for adults to have a separate space from the "young adults". The house was well thought out for guests and host was awesome and very easy to communicate with. I will definitely star this listing in my Rainbow River favorites as we vacation there every summer. Young adults enjoyed the hot tub and all the games and things to do at the property. Gaming system in the large loft with huge couch was a hanging place for them also. So many river items to use at the house, paddle boards, tubes, noodles, etc., was very nice to have access to. House is very close to anything we needed or wanted to do.

What a special place! The house was very thoughtfully appointed, and it was nice not to have to run out for little things. It even came stocked with a good variety of ice cream! The host, Daniel, was excellent and helpful. We love the great view over a pretty little park. It has had some lovely additions since our last stay, including a nice new bathroom with another rain shower. Since the changes though, it is necessary to go through either of the downstairs bedrooms to get to the back yard area, so plan accordingly. We appreciated dogs being welcome!

This was by far one of my favorite VRBO rentals! It was not only in a great location, right on the river, close to the springs, and supermarkets, it was so unique and spacious. Normally I bring blankets and towels because most rentals have the bare minimum but they had everything you can imagine. It felt like a home away from home. We grilled every night enjoyed the jacuzzi as well. Great rental!!

Very nice, comfortable set up for a small group or family. It was close to everything that we needed & wanted …including the city beach. Lots of water toys were available if you want to haul them out. We decided to rent for the kayak & tubing events, just easier. The communication with the host was quick & helpful. I highly recommend.
