Peaceful - wildlife

It was very relaxing. Loved sitting out in the porches and listen to the wildlife at night. Great location on the river! I would recommend eating at Swampys restaurant just down the road. Also make time to explore the river via kayak or renting a boat just down the road.

River is great!

Aside from some minor maintenance and cleanliness items (which are now reported), this property was great. Just can’t beat staying right on the river and having access to own kayaks!! The back area made the property!!

Great river home!

This house is perfect for those who appreciate a beautiful river view, peace and quiet, large yard, and may love to kayak, paddleboard or tube right out of your backyard! Roomy and clean house! We loved our stay and will be back. Also, walking distance to Swampy's, a delicious and fun restaurant on the water, love music!

Location, Location, Location

Gorgeous views of the Rainbow River with a private feel. The river bank was quite loaded with water weeds when we arrived, but the weeds were cleaned during our stay. The bottom is quite mucky, so it's not really ideal for swimming, but it is great for small boats and kayaks. The home itself could use some updating and maintenance, but the interior is clean. The beds are hard. We are local and rented to have our kids/grandchild visit comfortably in a fun location. We chose to stay at home in our own beds. That said, the main rooms are spacious and great for family gatherings. The river views are amazing. We enjoyed our stay!

It was amazing. The children loved kayaking and paddle boarding. My son and his wife enjoyed kayaking to Swampies for lunch every day. I loved watching the wildlife. The backyard was large enough to hang a hammock and play corn hole when we weren't fishing on the dock. We look forward to renting this property again.

A Beautiful Spot on the River

This property is very well kept, clean and comfortable. It offers a quieter spot on the Rainbow, away from river congestion that occurs on the weekends. Will hopefully return for another stay!

Christmas getaway

We decided to take a break from frigid Vermont Christmas' and book a warm getaway to Florida. For a wildlife and photography enthusiast this location was amazing! Right off the back lawn overlooking a setback on the Rainbow River, teaming with wildlife! We rented a pontoon boat and parked it at the dock of the house for a lunchtime barbecue, we had a blast! Great biking/walking path just on the other side of the river, 2 minute drive to the trailhead. We saw gators! A couple quirks with the house, like getting warm water in one of the showers and bathrooms and some questionable linens, but otherwise suited our needs and expectations very well.

Great stay

We absolutely loved our stay at the house, everything was lovely, well furnished, very comfortable and just the most beautiful, peaceful home on the river, but not right on the busy part so we did not have boats going directly in front of the house, just paddlers as is relatively shallow.

Beautiful location

It was great to be able to get right on the water from the dock. We paddled and swam and hung out on the porch. Great time! Only issue was that the guests before us put dirty diapers in the outside trash can but did not bring it out to the curb, so there were maggots on it. The house itself was clean - no other complaints!

Nice property and great location. We did have issues getting in on arrival. We were not sent the code for the entrance door , so we had to call to get it. The correct code was not given to us , so we had to call again. The dock was under water and not usable. That should have been communicated ahead of our stay.
