Serene River House

The space is thoughtfully outfitted with all essentials and has comfortable furnishings. My dog and I enjoyed exploring the neighborhood and embracing the quiet season. Our host, Daniel, was attentive and responsive to all requests. We will definitely be back!

Great place for a small family

My husband and two teenagers and our blue heeler had a great 4 night stay! The place had everything we needed and was close to everything we wanted to do. I loved spending the mornings working from the patio that was absolutely Heaven! No issues no complaints great stay !

Fall stay

The location is amazing and Dan was so easy to work with. The house was clean and had what we needed. Some of the dishes were dirty and the grill could use a cleaning of the grates. Otherwise we really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

Perfect Little Cottage

Daniel's cottage was perfect for our first stay on the Ohio River. We loved the spotlessly clean retro cinder block. It was beautifully renovated and had every comfort amenity. Street side is quiet, beautiful and a wonderful place to walk our dogs, and the river view from the cottage was, of course, terrific!

Great little place!

Cute little house with a fantastic outdoor space to enjoy the view. We utilized the kayaks and some of the games left for guest use. Kitchen is tiny, but has everything you need for a short stay. Owner was very flexible to deal with and responded quickly when messaged. Thank you!

Perfect getaway!

Our stay was great! The house is right on the river and tucked away from the main road but only 10 mins away! Daniel was a great host. Great communicator, and had any type of amenity you possible could need. Very well prepared than any other host I’ve experienced. Wasn’t able to get the kayaks out due to the water level on the river but will definitely be booking again!

Prospect, KY VRBO

Nancy and I enjoyed our stay at the Prospect KY vacation rental. It was the perfect size for just the two of us. Wished the kitchen was bigger. Also, an inside table would have been nice along with a stove. Thanks to Daniel, for helping us figure out how to light the grill. The house was clean and inside was nice even with the cement walls.

Better than Advertised

We loved the place! The photo of the pergola overlooking the river doesn't capture the full beauty of the view, or the comfort of the set up out back. The neighborhood is also very quiet, and neighbors all very friendly. The house was very clean, and it is, as advertised, a small place, but perfect for us. We had our grandchildren over one day, and played cornhole (supplied) and did a little fishing off the dock (more for fun than for fish.) Also, loved seeing the boats and barges go up and down the river, especially in the evening. Fun! Everything was great!

Getaway

Enjoyed our stay. The view is beautiful. Neighborhood is quiet. The listing says 3 bedrooms but there is only 2. They have a pull out couch in the family room so i guess they consider that a "bedroom". Overall we would stay again. Property manager was awesome.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy

Not what we expected.

Deck was in poor repair; roof of deck slams in the wind to the point of concern for safety; hole in bathroom wall; kitchen counters not grouted and can see crumbs from previous guests; and although they have 2 large tvs, they are unusable unless you have your own streaming subscriptions. We felt that should have been disclosed in description. Booked for 3 nights. Only stayed 1 night and was offered zero refund.

Simple is better

We loved this place. Outstanding river view just out the back door. Great seating to watch it. House is on smaller side but still plenty of room. Bed slept great. Did I mention the river view. It has a really nice shower and 2 nice bedrooms. Kitchen is efficient and tv room is full of windows looking at the river. We will be back for another stay.

Great Time

The house was as described. Excellent view of the river with a nice patio. There are lots of items for you to use (kayaks, life jackets, Tube for floating on the river, board games, books, Bluetooth speakers etc.). We drove about 20-30 mins for excellent restaurants in the city. Would stay here again.
