Great home base for visiting family in the area. We didn’t spend a ton of time at the house but it was perfect to come home to after a busy day. Clean, comfortable beds, good communication by host, and close to all the essentials.

Rapid River Quaint Home

My husband, myself & our dog stayed here for 6 nights & loved the house. It was centrally located to where we wanted to go & our dog loved the yard!! Every place we wanted to visit was within 45 to 90 minutes of the house. The owner responded to emails & texts quickly. Would definitely stay here again if in the area.

House was clean, updated bathroom was nice, comfortable beds and living room. You will occasionally get chickens who come over to roam, not a problem unless you are traveling with a dog who would like to kill them. Landscape could be tidied up a bit but that’s me being picky. Host does not provide extras like plastic wrap, aluminum foil, ziplock bags, or laundry soap. There is a Dollar General store very close to the house tho which was convenient. There is also some kind of “station” right next door (not shown in pictures) so not the best view but the house was centrally located for us to do everything on our list so it worked well for us and we greatly enjoyed our stay.

This is a nice, clean, cute little house. I like that there were not close neighbors on either side so we had some privacy and our dog had some room to run.
