Right on the river, plenty of outdoor seating, walking paths along the river! The kitchen was well stocked. The outdoor pavilion was perfect for an evening fire and making smores. Can’t wait to come back to this little slice of heaven. So close to Camp Cheerio and Sparta! Perfect location!

Beautiful Property

Second time we’ve stayed here and we enjoyed it as much as the first time. House is right on the Little River and very private. Property is well maintained and house is very clean with a lot of extras that you typically have to purchase with a rental.

Weekend getaway

We were looking for a nice quiet getaway to just relax and the riverhouse was everything we hoped it would be. House is fully stocked with everything you could need, and was very clean. We loved the outside pavilion, every night we built a fire and pulled a table up and played cards or a game of monopoly. David was quick to reply when messaged with questions. Owners are super friendly and helpful. We cant wait to go back.

a gentle river with perfect temperatures for late summer

My guests and I all agreed this was one of our favorite vacays together, and we've had several. The house was well stocked & comfortable. The outdoor pavilion was a bonus for s'mores in September! No neighbors except up the hill. Just the trout in the river. We loved being here.

2nd time and we will be back. If you love to fish and love to get away from the everyday world, this is the place to unwind, relax and recharge the battery. One of the most beautiful properties I have seen. Great host.

Hidden Gem

This place is truly a hidden gem. Tucked away in a peaceful setting but close to downtown Sparta! You can listen to the sounds of the river from the front porch. The place feels more like a cozy home instead of a house with everything you need for your stay. There is a great pavilion area set up nicely for gatherings. Would love to return to take advantage of that. David was a great host! Would totally recommend this place. We cannot wait to return. home,witforyour stay. your stay

2nd wonderful Christmas

We decided to spend a second Christmas in this peaceful get away from it all and our plan is to spend another some day. Peace on earth - sitting on the porch watching river roll by, deer running up the hill, warming by the big fireplace, walking around the frozen lake, simple stillness - works for our whole family. Another Merry Christmas in this comfy special place🎄🙏🏻✅

Deserves More Credit

This home deserves more credit! It was extremely clean. The property was so beautiful. The Pavilion was the perfect place to cook outside, eat outside, sit by the fire, watch the river, watch the wildlife. Perfect mix of sun and shade. The home has obviously had some updates and was spaciously laid out. The pictures do not show the true beauty and just how wonderful this place is. We are already planning our return!!
