A must stay! Beautiful, peaceful retreat

We stayed here for our annual girls trip and we loved it! The property is so beautiful and the views breathtaking. So peaceful! The hot tub was also a great way to end the day. Our Host was friendly, attentive and very accommodating. We will be back! An added bonus was their sweet little dogs that would come down and visit.

Best Vacation Rental I've Ever Been To

It may be biased because I was here during the 2024 Solar Eclipse, but this was the most lovely property and the layout of the house and outdoor space was amazing. The whole place is so welcoming and well-thought out. The kitchen and inside is also gorgeous. We would definitely come back here in an instant. The sweet little dogs are a bonus and I hope they grace you with their presence.

Perfect weekend

The property was exceptional. The host/hostess have many outdoor activity supplies available for guest to use. The river is amazing, everyone caught fish! We saw eagles, had campfires, relaxed in the hot tub. The home is secluded with nature and peacefulness, yet is accessible to shops and restaurants only a few miles away. The property owners were very pleasant to work with. I’ll give Eagle River House 100 Stars !!!!

All that we hoped and more

Eagle River House did what many properties can’t: Be even better than promised in the pictures. The property is stunning, with gorgeous views of the Ashtabula River from the high-on-a-cliff deck overlook. We enjoyed sipping morning coffee and evening wine with that view. And yes, we saw the bald eagle and great blue heron living their best lives from our perch above the river. The inside of the rental is spacious and stylish, with tons of perfect touches throughout. You won’t be disappointed!

Eagle River House

Beautiful property located on a quiet river. Great place to get away but still have access to the local wineries and nice restaurants. Lower floor is very clean, with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. Enjoyed hiking down by river and sitting by the small waterfalls reading. Perfect place to recharge! Hosts were very responsive and answered all questions. WiFi was fast . Would definitely recommend and would stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Bill and Rachel Wall

Host profile image
Hello my name is Bill and my wife is Rachel. I was born in Ashtabula Ohio. My wife was born in Massachusetts. We lived in Florida where we were married and then moved back to Ohio. I designed and built this house. Took 3 years to build. Everyone that stays here enjoys it very much. They say it’s nicer than the pictures. My wife is the hostess. We are adding extra amenities as time goes on.

Why they chose this property

It’s quiet here in our sleepy small town. Rolling green hills and rustic country side feel. Our neighborhood has a small town feel with wide open spaces. Famous for our beautiful wine country and Indian trails. We love our River.

What makes this property unique

The cliffside River view is spectacular here.
