Viola’s Cottage- River access, Peaceful, Scenic & Newly Renovated!

no negatives here, everything was perfect we are already planning on another visit here!

Amazing place 4th visit here!! Hosts are amazing.

Once again another wonderful stay at this property. We love to sit in the rockers on the porch and enjoy the peaceful view. The house is clean, and has absolutely everything you need from kitchen items, towels, extra bedding, and even a first aid kit. It is exactly as described.We spent a day on the beautiful river access at the bottom of the hill. you will need to drive there, but it only take 2 minutes. On sat, Birds nest picked us up for our float and returned us. We barbequed on the charcoal grill and played cornhole by the fire. We will be back again next year. Thank you Peggy and Jon! you are wonderful hosts!

The place was beautiful. Very comfortable and well furnished. We will return definately. Owners greeted us as we pulled in which was very nice.

Very clean . Very updated would recommend to anyone.

Beautiful country setting, clean house, and convenient location. The communication was also top notch. I already booked it again!!

My family and I had a great time exploring Steelville from this property!

Viola’s Cottage was the perfect place for our family to stay. Beautiful grounds and the house had everything we needed. We have a new grandson and staying here will now be part of our annual family gathering.

...just plain EXCELLENT!!! 'NUF SED! ...seriously, we did not want for a thing! It was just like home for all of us!

Came to town with the family for a reunion and the home is perfect. Kids love the area and the river is a short walk away. Highly recocomend.

This home is beautifully located. Peaceful, close to Steelville, easy river access, SO MANY little extras included (thick bath towels, comfortable beds, outdoor lighting and seating, coffee, creamer, yard games, board games, just too many to list)... The owners are so personable and repsond quickly. We've stayed twice and will again!! Thank you Peggy and Jon for a wonderful weekend!

A great location for what we were in Steelville for. If I had to make any negative comment, it would be the surrounding houses as you're driving in, that are in disrepair, but no reflection on this property. Luckily, you do not see them once you are at Viola's Cottage and only the beautiful grounds.

Jon and peggy are outstanding jon met us when we pulled in and gave us a rundown on everything very beautiful senary and place words cant say enough thank you will be booking next year

We stayed at Viola's Cottage for our annual rally race trip. Upon arrival, we discovered there was no power. Just as we were about to reach out to the host, Peggy and Jon arrived to let us know that power was out in the area due to high winds. They had provided us with lanterns and flashlights to get us through until the power was restored. They also gave us access to the basement of the house as severe weather was expected. No power also meant a limited supply of water from the well, so we opted to eat dinner at a restaurant in Steelville. We made it back to the house just as a severe storm hit the area. We took refuge in the basement during a brief tornado warning. Once things calmed down, we all went to bed. We woke up to a chilly house still without power, so we headed to Salem for day two of the race. We got notice from our host at about 11:00 AM that the power had been restored. We still had a full day of activities but were extremely happy to hear we would be able take showers once we got back. We didn't get much of a chance to enjoy the amenities of the house due to the storms. However, I will say the the beds were comfortable, and there was an ample supply of towels, washcloths, and hangers which is not always the case with a rental home. The house was clean, nicely decorated, and well stocked. Peggy and Jon were gracious host and went above and beyond to help us ride out the storms. Hopefully, we will have a chance to stay again under better circumstances.

Adorable, clean, and comfortable place with wildlife right there. The host has really gone above and beyond to make your stay seem as if you are staying at grandma's cottage or home away from home with the extras provided. It was also very clean and comfortable. Great place for a family or weekend getaway and have all of the comforts from home.

This cottage was the perfect spot for a weekend with my friends. It has everything you could want at your fingertips. We were just a short drive to the Wildwood Lodge for dinner and live music. The town, the hosts, everyone was so friendly. We hope to go back and stay longer

We stayed two nights and loved it! It was clean, peaceful, comfortable, close to the river and close to Steeleville. Great attention was paid to all the details to provide everything guests might need during their stay. The bed was really comfortable which is always important to us, the bedding was great, the towels were thick and fluffy, and all the decor was so tasteful. The rooms are spacious and the only negative for us was that there was only one bathroom. We thought about inviting friends to join us but were hesitant because of the one bathroom. My husband and I would definitely stay here again!

This is our 3rd stay and every time we are blown away with the cleanliness and all of the little things that are provided. Communication with owners is easy and quick. Would recommend to everyone! Ginger

We absolutely loved Viola’s Cottage! We will be back!

Love that cabin! Spent 2 days sitting in the river at the access. Will be back in the fall!

We enjoyed our stay very much!

Was just as advertised! We had a great time. Hope to be back!

Conveniently located next to a beach with shallow water for kids to play in and literally a two minute drive to town. What sets this property apart is the fact that you won’t be spending hundreds of extra dollars on impulse buys when you go out to buy the little items here and there that you forgot. If you are on a budget, bring your own food and drink to cook, the host provides everything else. Down to the little things like a match or plastic bag. We will definitely be coming back next year!

This property was the perfect spot for a weekend float getaway! Check in was easy (and ready before expected!), and the cabin and property were lovely. We had fun walking down to the river and using the bonfire and lawn games. Everything was super well labeled in the cabin, and we enjoyed the complimentary bottle of wine! We were a party of 6 and had plently of space for all of us. Would definitely recommend this spot for a trip to Steelville!
