Great family getaway!

We had a wonderful time staying at this property! Location is perfect! Quiet yet close to town for any needs. The view of the river can be seen from inside or out. Large kitchen for cooking. Comfortable beds. Plenty of room to get away from each other if needed. Will definitely return!

My Favorite Place in the World!

We go every Summer for a week or two and have been doing so for about 14 years now. I cant imagine a summer vacation without staying at Nana's River House. We enjoyed cooking, swimming, kayaking and floating. Love everything about this place! Cant wait to go back next year.

Great location

We enjoyed the location so much. The host Matt was so helpful and offered some goodies from his BBQ Smoker! We enjoyed the kayaks and the easy access to the he water. The kitchen was well stocked. And the house has everything we needed. Even the bath towels were plush and soft. The beds were super comfy!

Perfect location on the Rainbow River

Beautiful location on the Rainbow River. Not far from the head springs. The house is an older home but meticulously maintained. Perfect spring break getaway for our family of four, (kids 13 and 10). The hosts provided everything you need to enjoy the house and the river-kayaks, tubes etc and a stunning location with steps leading down into the cool clear waters of the river. We really enjoyed our stay and are already talking about when we can book our next trip!

Nana’s Riverhouse

This was a family and friends weekend. We had our kids, grandkids, and great-grandchildren. Totally awesome; our hosts, Matt & Jo, were very accommodating with what we needed. Could not believe he made us BBQ ribs when we got there, which were off the chain. Many thanks to Matt and Jo.
