This is our third time staying at the flip flop in. We take our two boys (ages 12 and 14) and they LOVE it! So close to the spring head and a nice swimming area right from the backyard. The water is crystal clear even in super deep areas. Just beautiful.

This was an amazing property on a great part of the river. The owner has thought of everything! It was very clean and comfortable. We were grateful that the kitchen was well-equipped because we made dinner every night. Our family was very comfortable and we hope to return next summer.

Host was very nice and responsive in communications. Great location on the river Right in between the state park and KP hole. House was as expected - it is a bit older. The grass wasn’t cut which would have made the stay a bit nicer for the kids to be in the yard more. Overall would stay again.

We had an amazing time! I have stayed twice in the last month because Juanita is an incredible host with excellent communication from start to finish. The house is very spacious, the rooms and beds are super comfortable, and the kitchen is fully stocked with every appliance you could possibly need. The location is perfect. A great yard, and we absolutely loved being able to walk right down the steps and straight into the Rainbow River. Such a peaceful and convenient spot. Highly recommend and will definitely stay again if available!
