Well appointed and nice property
This space worked well for our group. River access is easy. You can swim right off the dock. The house is clean and there are plenty of available toys included there. If you are not having fun here, it is your own fault.

Perfect location on the river
My family and I rented this home for spring break and it was amazing. House looked exactly like the pictures. The location on Rainbow River was the best. We rented a pontoon boat for a couple days and guess it to the dock. House was fully stocked with towels and supplies. Beds were comfortable. We will be renting again. Thank you

Annual Rainbow River birthday celebration
This is my third year celebrating my birthday somewhere on Rainbow River. This is the first home I rented actually on the Rainbow River. And it was excellent. No complaints at all. Stocked with everything beautiful home and perfect right there on the river.
