What a wonderful place to meet friends and enjoy the views.
The leaves were changing and it was a perfect fall weekend.
The house was wonderful and had everything we needed.
We are coming back to this place! :)
5 Star's !!
We took a break for a few days away from the hassles of normal life. The house was great for that. We spent the time relaxing, playing cards and looking at the gorgeous view. The house was spotless and everything was as advertised. The owner reached out to make sure everything was in order before the rental and made sure that we knew he was available for any issues. I highly recommend this rental.
That’s a beautiful, cozy and perfect place for staying!
Amazing location, great view!!!
The house is in a great condition and very clean!
Hope to come there again!
It's quite a feeling to be in the midst of the birds flying around and looking DOWN at the tops of large pine trees!! The deck was too sunny/hot to sit on during the day (no shade/umbrellas) but was perfect for sitting out as the evening sun set.
The place is well equipped. Overall the place was clean however the gas grill was very dirty and required a lot of cleaning before we could use it. The frig also had dried food/spills on a few of the shelves.
One small suggestion is to include a note on where to take trash as we didn't know what to do with it until we reached out to the owner who told us we had to take it to the gas station (we finally figured out where that was at).
Also, there is no WiFi even tho the VRBO site says there is. The owner told us that is an issue with VRBO, not him, as he has been trying to get that updated.
Bob Lyons is a gentleman and great host . We enjoyed our stay!

My wife and I built this last year. We decided to rent our property out so other people could enjoy this beautiful property like we do. We live in southeast Iowa and don't get to come up very often. .
Why they chose this property
You will not find a better view. you can see the river from every window in the house.
What makes this property unique
If you love eagles like we do this is the place to come. The eagles sore right in front of your eyes.
