This is a great property for guests who are interested in fishing and wildlife along the river. Please note that the second bathroom is more of a utility type bathroom and is located downstairs in the unfinished basement. It’s a good location for anyone attending EAA OshKosh.

Comfortable house with nice river views

The house was clean and very comfortable (beds, couches and recliners better than much more expensive homes we have rented). Neighborhood is nothing fancy but safe and right next to a great trail with bridges over the Fox River. Would definitely stay again.

The home was very clean, comfortable and accommodating. Only real issue was with WIFI, didn't seem to have enough band with as we could not stream both TV's in the house without constant buffering. That would be the only suggestion.

House on a beautiful river, super walkable

Nice place, and dynamite to have the river just outside the window. Spent a lot of time watching birds (and a baby otter) and walking around on the trails right next door. Solid stay. As described. Would stay here again for sure.

Return trip

just as nice as the first! This was our second time at Fox River Retreat and we had a wonderful time again. Very relaxing and we just LOVE watching the birds on the river. A couple of heron/egret actually popped onto the patio while we were watching from inside. We’ll be back again!

Great location !!

The only downside to this property was what’s called “River Flies”. They don’t bite and can hardly fly but literally hundreds get in through any screen or door that’s not fairly tight.
