Why they chose this property

We have owned another vacation rental property, Chimera on the Rainbow, since June, 2015. However, we have had to reject requests to have pets at Chimera, so we decided to purchase another property and make it Pet Friendly. Chimera is the more upscale of the two / Meraki is a house built in the 40's, expanded over the years, and now renovated. Both are fully equipped for your vacation enjoyment. Chimera includes a Custom Bar and Game Room. Meraki has two separate Entertainment Centers in separate structures which give the teenagers their own place to hang out.

What makes this property unique

Obviously, the Rainbow River is the attraction. But Meraki provides an Entertainment Center where family can gather in the Communal Kitchen / Great Room and a Bar and Living Room with a smaller Entertainment Center in the Bedroom House. Your teenagers can watch their own movies there. Meraki has a large fire pit right at the river's edge and a gently sloping river bottom which is perfect for toddlers to play at the river's edge (under your constant supervision, of course).
