Girls Weekend
A great stay for a girl’s weekend. Did a float on the Rock River (boat landing only 3 minutes away) and played games on the porch, enjoying the beautiful view and sunset. Kitchen stocked with plenty of towels, knives, bowls, can opener, etc. Would book here again for next summer’s weekend.

Engagement Weekend Celebration
We were visiting Grand Detour to celebrate our sons engagement and were delighted to find this home in Oregon only 10 minutes away from the festivities! The deck overlooking Rock Lake was a wonderful place to start every morning with a cup of coffee and the family room with comfortable and plentiful couches was a relaxing place to unwind after a day on the river. Thanks to Nick for detailed directions from Chicago and his quick response to our thermostat assistance! We appreciated all the amenities this home had to offer.
