This is a wonderful rental property if you are looking for a quiet place to enjoy the beauty of the river. There is plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors. The house is exceptionally clean and well stocked for everything that is needed. The kitchen was well equipped.The front porch is a wonderful place to relax while enjoying the river view and the sound of the water flowing over the rocks. It is also close to area parks.I definitely hope to come back again!

River House

This was a delightfully peaceful stay for my husband and me. There is plenty of room for at least 6 people and even a detached building/BBQ to entertain around 30 people and ample parking.David Woodie is a wonderful host. This is the second time we have stayed at one of this Host’s properties. It is very conveniently located to downtown Sparta, which is charming. Great restaurants with live music, shopping and grocery store close by (10 minutes away). We loved it! Looking forward to going back!

Weekend getaway

We were looking for a nice quiet getaway to just relax and the riverhouse was everything we hoped it would be. House is fully stocked with everything you could need, and was very clean. We loved the outside pavilion, every night we built a fire and pulled a table up and played cards or a game of monopoly. David was quick to reply when messaged with questions. Owners are super friendly and helpful. We cant wait to go back.

Hidden Gem

This place is truly a hidden gem. Tucked away in a peaceful setting but close to downtown Sparta! You can listen to the sounds of the river from the front porch. The place feels more like a cozy home instead of a house with everything you need for your stay. There is a great pavilion area set up nicely for gatherings. Would love to return to take advantage of that. David was a great host! Would totally recommend this place. We cannot wait to return. home,witforyour stay. your stay

Deserves More Credit

This home deserves more credit! It was extremely clean. The property was so beautiful. The Pavilion was the perfect place to cook outside, eat outside, sit by the fire, watch the river, watch the wildlife. Perfect mix of sun and shade. The home has obviously had some updates and was spaciously laid out. The pictures do not show the true beauty and just how wonderful this place is. We are already planning our return!!

a gentle river with perfect temperatures for late summer

My guests and I all agreed this was one of our favorite vacays together, and we've had several. The house was well stocked & comfortable. The outdoor pavilion was a bonus for s'mores in September! No neighbors except up the hill. Just the trout in the river. We loved being here.

Second time we’ve stayed here and we enjoyed it as much as the first time. House is right on the Little River and very private. Property is well maintained and house is very clean with a lot of extras that you typically have to purchase with a rental.
