We had a wonderful stay over Memorial Day Weekend. The house was exactly as described and this part of the river is beautiful! It's deep enough to swim and calm enough to just float in a tube all day. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were very comfortable and the outdoor area was so nice to sit and relax. Our kids loved the downstairs game room! The owners were kind and responsive which was so nice. We will definitely be back!

We enjoyed our weekend here. There is ample entertainment space. Beds were super fresh and clean.Our only major complaint with is the fridge in the kitchen that did not cool properly. I hope the property owner replaces or fixes the fridge. This property is well suited for a group of people to take advantage of the outdoor hangout spaces. Images of the river are accurate. Not a flowing section of the river, but very good quiet pretty area.

We are glad you had a wonderful time. As far as the refrigerator goes we haven’t had any issues from our past guests reporting any cooling concerns. Usually when guests arrive they unload all their food (which in most cases is room temperature ) into both refrigerators that are available and it takes a few hours to properly cool down. We wish you would have reached out to us during your stay so we could have addressed it then. We will look into this concern and make the appropriate changes as needed. We hope to see you and your guests again soon.

This is the second time we stayed at this spaceous riverside house and it was just as wonderful as the first. We also got to meet one of the hosts, Morgan, when we floated with Little Ponderosa Rentals -- he was great! Highly recommend the property, location, and hosts. Will continue to book here.

My family of 10 really enjoyed this inviting home and location! So grateful to have have been able to stay here. The backyard, dock, and roominess was perfect! The host s are great communicators and most helpful. The upstairs queen beds are not comfortable enough to sleep 2 adults but the rest of the property makes up for that. We hope to stay again.

By far the Best house I've stayed in for the last 10 years, we will be back. Everything was provided which made it easy to entertain my guests. Very clean house with tons of space, we got plenty of use out of the huge deck and game room downstairs. The guests in the houses next door were also very friendly. Fantastic weekend with lots of memories to bring home.

We absolutely loved this place. It is the ultimate river trip place to stay. It was extremely well thought out and put together. The game room with all these activities was incredibly fun. The dock that let into the perfect spot in the river. And the tubing at Little Ponderosas was the same. Met the owners and they were extremely nice. So much beautiful space to spend time. 10 / 10 will do again.

Perfect location with deep water (6 feet). Plenty of space, and is comfortable and convenient. We had 6 adults and 4 kids. Our 7-year old said it was the “Best House Ever”. The kids played the arcade games and foosball, while the adults played cards on the deck. Shuttle picked us up right out front and had our tubes ready for our day. I highly recommend the Rocky River Retreat.
