Tanzie was helpful and responsive, a great host. The location and house were exactly how represented online, and was a very nice "break" from my normal schedule! Wonderful family time...
Wonderful place for our family getaway! Owner was very helpful and quick to reply. Super cute place right along the river. Will definately be back!

Relaxing!
Arrived early and we were told to go ahead and go in. We had a great time and it was very relaxing. The 3 decks on the river were great. There’s a few boards on the bottom deck that could probably use some work but we weren’t disappointed in the stay. We forgot some food in the refrigerator and texted Tanzie about it and she was very nice about it. Would stay there again if we were in the area.
The place has its quirks, but it’s very clean and cozy and quite restful, with lots of spaces to relax indoors and out. Very convenient to town, with nice neighbors and lots of wildlife to enjoy.
The Rock River Hideaway was a great river house to stay in for our 35th anniversary. Clean and comfortable. Unfortunately we had bad weather and it was hard to enjoy the deck and river watch. Town is very close for supplies. Everything was great. Host was very responsive via text.
We (2 person couple) really enjoyed this cabin. We fished from the deck and did have some luck. Beautiful scenic and quiet location. The near by towns had need shops and cafes. Check in was very easy and all questions were answered quickly. The 'bugs' come and go with the current (as is waterfront life). Beds were cozy and the cabin was clean. We are keeping this place on our list for the future!
We really enjoyed our short weekend stay. The owner is really nice and easy to reach if need anything. If you’re a fan of fishing you can do so right from the house deck.
This was the perfect spot to have our girls weekend getaway. The deck and view were amazing. We had a great time and had everything we needed. Although there was no WIFI it was great to get everyone off the grid.
We were in the area to visit with my mom a few days. She is in long term care, and visits can sometimes be emotional. We wanted a relaxing place to come back to at night, and this property fit the bill. We knew the weather would be cooler, so we really loved that we could still get a great view of the river sitting on the porch. We enjoyed meals there. This property was very clean, and beds and couches were comfortable.
Tanzie was amazing. She was so communicative and prompt to answer any questions. The place was so much better then I imagined and was perfect for our girls trip. The place is right on the lake and a 5 minute drive from some of the coolest hikes and natural parks. You can also sit outside and see the stars. Everything we needed was provided in the house. Will definitely be back.
People complaining about bugs on the water are the same people that complain about sand on the beach. If you don’t want to relax and unplug this place is not for you.
We were very happy with the property relaxing and peaceful and very clean.
This was a lovely place. We loved just sitting on the deck and watching the river, while sipping our wine. I did have work to do and should have asked about the cell service, so I could get a hotspot (which I could not) but there were nice places in town with WiFi, so it worked out.
I recommend this adorable place... just check in and chill!
This is a great property! The beds are VERY comfy, the kitchen is well-stocked, and there is an abundance of outdoor seating.
Tanzie is kind and easy to work with.
The view were absolutely beautiful!
I wanted to take my kids on a last minute getaway before school started and this was exactly what we needed. The house was very comfortable and relaxing, We had a pleasant time and enjoyed the river view and out door activities like yardzee, wiffle ball. fire pit. Inside we played monopoly and hangman and just hung out. Yes, there’s no Wi-Fi but my kids never even complained because we found other things to do. You are able to text pretty well though and the host was very responsive and helpful when we had questions. I would definitely go back again if nothing but relaxing is on the agenda.
