What a beautiful and quaint old home on the River! Although the weath prohibited us from enjoying the outdoor areas, we all enjoyed sitting and watching the river as strang as that sounds. Pleanty of places to relax and enjoy. We never felt like we were too confined, and we loved the historic notes around the house. Thank you for the wonderful relaxing time.

Excellent location and amazing views

This is an excellent location with anazing views. The house is amazing, its old but well maintained and if interested you can discover interesting facts about the family that owns the house. Grocery stores are a bit far so come prepared.This is definitely a place you can stay long term. We plan to come back again next year.

60th Birthday Celebration

4 of us came from NY to celebrate the 60th birthday of brother that lives in IN. It was a great place to have a low key get together with the 6 of us and share time with each other.

The town was far more remote than expected. We had to take our own Christmas decorations for the holiday. The house was nice and well kept.

Total Eclipse Getaway

Everything was perfect. The home looks as good as in the photos. It was fun learning the history of this restored gem. How many rentals are owned by the same family after over 100 years? We really felt at home!

Great home for getting away from it all.

This is truly a historic home, both inside and out. It is a very quiet spot, with lots of windows and a porch overlooking the Ohio River. Everything is provided; everything was clean . Furniture is very comfortable. One can imagine the past lives of the inhabitants as one sits there watching the river boat barges slowly moving along. The only negative, at least for us, is that except for two restaurants with very limited hours, all other restaurants are a 40 minute drive away in Madison. My wife likes a vacation without having to cook.

I would love to give this place a 5 but we did have problems with the internet access. The house is beautiful and the view is extraordinary. Very quite and relaxing. The hosts were great.

Thank you for the kind words about the house, the view, and the peaceful setting. We're sorry the WiFi gave you trouble during your stay, that was due to a storm-related power outage that required additional data to resolve, and the issue has since been fixed. We're glad the rest of your visit was relaxing and hope to keep making this a great place to unwind.

Porch/patio/fire pit outstanding. I think the house is gorgeous for one that is 130 years old. Bathrooms, kitchen all modern. Beds comfortable. Riverview very nice. Very quiet community. Check in/out smooth. Freddie was awesome. You'll know when you go.
