Get away
House was great for our group. 4 kiddos and 5 adults. Lots of nice extras at house. Pool was great for the kiddos. Beds very comfy! Big bedroom great for a family with kiddos that can sleep safely in bunks. Other bedroom attached directly to it for parents and kiddos in pack n play but could prove awkward for groups not wanting others traipsing through the attached bedrooms to go outside to pool or use the second bathroom. House was clean and well equipped . Would def go back.bedrooms

Nice set up. Open kitchen/living room/dining was very conducive to our group. We did have to purchase floats for the pool...but just left some for the next guests.

Our group of 10 ladies very much enjoyed our stay at the rock river retreat! There was plenty of room for all of us. The beds were super comfortable! We enjoyed the large, well furnished outdoor spaces and had a great time at the pool and on the river. Highly recommend!

Girls Weekend of relaxation and fun
My girlfriends and I spent the weekend here and had a blast. The place was clean and spacious.
A couple items that we wished were at the house were trash bags, a broom, and cooking oil - it is possible that we just did not find them.
We rented a pontoon near by - the driver picked us up right form the dock. We visited local restaurants and listened to love music.
We loved having all the pool floaties out and didn't even get a chance to take the yard games out.
They also were great at communicating - we accidentally locked ourselves out and they were on the phone within seconds to help.
Overall great!

Great spot!
Awesome spot on the rock river. Catching walleye off the dock no problem! Played can jam in the yard and the pool was perfect temperature! Definitely would recommend coming here for a fun weekend.
