Riverfront cabin on Rock River

Completely remodeled and updated 975 square foot two bedroom cottage. Featuring 65 inch flat-screen HDTV, fully modernized kitchen with new gas oven, french door refrigerator, new Serta-Perfect queen mattress in master bedroom and pillow-top queen in guest bedroom.

Amazing river views as soon as you walk in, but this home boasts a three season room furnished with a huge L-shaped sectional couch, surrounded by windows for spectacular views and comfortable relaxation.
Outside we have a large concrete patio fully furnished including a gas grill and even a hammock. There is a large fenced in grass yard leading down a gentle slope to the river where you'll find a nice fishing dock where you will see bald eagles, deer and other wildlife.
Preferred age limit; 26 and above. no children please, two day minimum. Due to insurance no swimming is allowed. Pet friendly negotiable. Limit 2 dogs and I do have a $30 nightly pet fee.
Just to be totally open as I did have a guest mention this. About a mile down river from my place they do have a trap shooting range and in the summer and fall you may hear them practicing. If you have any concerns or have questions about when they are shooting please don’t hesitate to contact me. I was able to find the schedule online. On a side note my dog is Very noise sensitive and from that distance it doesn’t seem to bother her as we spend a lot of time there when we can.. please feel free to contact me if you have questions. Bill

Calm and peaceful with the river, many places to relax whether it is in the living room, the sunroom, the hammock, or outdoors. Great place to stay and really good host that made the stay smooth. Appreciated having no check out tasks as the cleaning fee covered them all

We loved the design of the home itself as well as the view of the river right out the backyard. The fenced in yard proved perfect for our dogs, maybe the best rental setup we had as far as convenience for them. We could just let them outdoors by themselves with no problem. I really enjoyed being able to observe life on the river too. Nice place, especially for the price! Good bang for your buck.

Charming, clean and comfortable house right on the beautiful rock river. We enjoyed morning coffee on the porch, setting up our fishing poles on the dock and enjoying the beautiful scenery. We look forward to visiting again next year.
