Family retreat

We loved staying at your house, it is beautiful, clean and well stocked. The river views are just breathtaking. We loved sitting in the front room, drinking our coffee and watching the fishermen and the planes. Great outdoor space, other than the deck being remodeled but that was no issue for us. Great river access with the dock, but the bank access was great as well.we really enjoyed our stay and we will return. Thank you for a great retreat with our family.

Perfect place for a large family gathering.

House is fantastic, the property managers were responsive to an issue we had. Great neighborhood and river access. We were very happy with our stay and will stay here again.One thing, and this is not a knock on the house, because the house is BEAUTIFUL. But there are a few stairs in the house that you must go up and down daily. In case you have anyone with mobility issues in your group. No big deal otherwise.

guys trip to the river house

The house is beautiful, clean and fantastic views of the river through out the home. Very well stocked, we were able to stay in and cook our meals and had everything we needed. Brandee is quick to respond to any questions, needs or concerns. Always very prompt. The fishing was great. They were in the process of redoing the river bank and it looks great and will give even better river access once complete. We will definitely come back next year.

Peace on the river

Nothing better than to sit on the deck and hear the sounds of the river and the eagles. Awesome location on the White River. Plenty of beds and bathrooms and a very well stocked kitchen. Master bed is super comfortable, and the huge dining table creates a space for conversation while staring out at the river and forgetting city life. Minutes from town, great burgers and sandwiches a From the Gassville Freeze King, and free airshow entertainment any day of the week watching the private pilots do touch ‘n’ go’s outside your front door. The recent renovations have really upped the game for this awesome White River home.

Beautiful place

Great place, was under construction, contractors working about a couple days. Dock, river access, patio space was all limited due to construction. Would have liked to receive some communication from Evolve or VRBO - very expensive place to share with contractors and deal with limited access. Great neighbors but the parking is a bit of an issue as well - especially with construction equipment on site. All this said, we would go back once construction is wrapped up.

Great location but not large enough for 10 guys

Great location and layout but i would not recommend it for groups larger than 6 adults. There are 2 bedrooms that show 2 beds in each which is technically accurate but the rooms are extremely small especially when trying to use the beds. The other limitations are the 2 pullout couches in the basement cannot both be used at the same time as the room is not large enough for that. All of the indoor and outdoor spaces are great and we enjoyed our stay but it is not one i would select for large groups of adults.

The house was just as listed on VRBO. We had 9 adults and 5 kids. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. The detached living quarters really added to the property. We enjoyed seeing eagles, deer, river otters. The kids really enjoyed the airplanes taking off and landing. The host was super nice. Would definitely recommend and would stay again.
