Guys trip

We had a great time fishing and hiking the area. The locals were all friendly and you could watch the moon rise over the Ohio River from the backyard. The owner was very helpful and the property had everything we needed to have a relaxing trip. We will definitely be returning.

Wonderful trip

I highly recommend this property in Derby, Indiana, for a family getaway. The combination of stunning river views, the fire pit for roasting marshmallows, and the ability to fly kites make it an excellent choice. Furthermore, the cleanliness of the farmhouse is impressive, and you can feel confident that your family will have a comfortable and relaxing stay.

5th time here!

We’ve been here with our six grandchildren in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024! We love this place. When we arrived this time, the oldest grandson (now 17) stretched out his arms and said, “It feels so good to be back!”

Beautiful, fun and relaxing

This was our third time vacationing here. We just love it. Once again, we had a wonderful stay. It was so relaxing and beautiful. The house is clean and welcoming. The pool is fun and enjoyable for everyone. The kids (and adults) really enjoyed the cows as well as the stunning views. Joann and her husband are amazing hosts and we appreciate all their help and answers to our questions about farm life. We highly recommend this beautiful property.

The location and atmosphere couldn’t have been better. Seven men came together for our annual retreat. The space is beautiful and spiritual. We ate, drank, walked and sat by the fire. The view of the forest and river make this a unique and special place. We hope to come back again,

Quiet get away

He had a lovely stay, we had beautiful views and ample space. We really enjoyed our stay. We were able to go to another property the owner had to see the eclipse, since this home was at 99% totality. Joann when above and beyond and we have already discussed coming back. We couldn't see house numbers on the home and it took us a minute to find the rental.

Pictures don't do justice!

This has been one of the most beautiful vacations we've ever taken! The property was magnificent; the photos absolutely don't do justice to the setting of the home. The homeowners went out of the way to make us feel comfortable. The house was in beautiful and very clean condition. We will certainly be sure to be back!

Beautiful view

The rental was great. Plenty of space for our family reunion dinner. We enjoyed the Ohio river view, and we had one evening at the fire pit for a marshmallow roast. The pool was closed (seasonal). A few tried the fishing pond out, and some of us walked around the property. Check in was great and the host always responded quickly. Everyone loved it.
