Great House. Perfect Location for a White River Adventure.

A group of four guys stayed here for two nights while fly fishing on the White River. The location is perfect, giving you quick access to the river. The house has everything you need. The outdoor space is wonderful and the screened in porch is an excellent spot to sit and watch the river go by. We will definitely stay here again.

Beautiful!

Our stay was wonderful! The house was cozy & had everything we needed. The views were so beautiful. We really loved the screened porch, patio area with a fire pit & grill, and the chairs along the river. It was a lovely family getaway & we plan on going back.

Great house with all the amenities. Great areas to sit outside by the fire pit with supplied wood for a nightly fire in the cool weather. Great screened in back porch to sip coffee and view the river and discuss our fishing plans for the day.

Property was beautiful! Everything about the property both inside and out was perfect! Anything you could need was available for use. We didn't catch any trout because the weather didn't cooperate. We would love to return

Amazing!

I cannot say enough good things about this place!! From the moment we booked until we checked out, it was phenomenal. Charlie communicated with us about everything, entered all my questions, and made sure we knew about anything and everything we could ask. The house itself was perfect. Had every single thing we needed and stuff we didn’t realize we needed. One of us may have forgotten a toothbrush. It was comfortable, clean, and we felt right at home. All the extra touches made us feel like we were very important to them; the snacks, the extra supplies and just the overall vibe. If you get the opportunity to go to the White River, I need a great place to stay, this is a great place to do that.

Cozy home

We love staying at Tailwater when we plan a fly fishing trip. The home is well equipped with special touches as snacks and water. It was rather chilly this weekend and the home was warm and comfortable to come into after a cold day on the water. The location is perfect for anyone visiting the area and especially anyone wanting easy access to fish the White River.
