Our family had another fantastic stay Christmas week. Same as last year. The air hockey and basketball games were the highlight. Plus there were plenty of other activities available to fill the time for everyone. The host is very helpful.
We were in town for my brother’s memorial service. Four of my family members and their family stayed at the home. We had such a wonderful time remembering my brother and enjoying each others company. We decided to make it a priority to get together every year.
Great property for a group. I grew up in Janesville and was not aware of how great a riverfront property could be. Nice communication from owners.
Arrived on a Friday and the checkin was a breeze. Talked with the manager a few days beforehand about dinning and activities in the area. Very nice home and had everything we needed. Relaxing fire pit by the river that was really nice with a big open yard. If we are in the area again we will be looking to come back!
This home is beautiful, clean, & peaceful. Jamie, one of the owner/managers, checked in with us before & after our stay & just made us feel so welcome. We were in town for a funeral & having such a restful place to return to was very nice. Our teenager was also well taken care of with the stellar entertainment/living space in the lower level. I would give this place six stars if I could!
Stayed in this house with seven others for four days. It was just as advertised. Very clean and comfortable. Great view of the river. Plenty of parking for four cars. Owner was very easy to communicate with. Check in could not have been easier. We had a wonderful time. Would highly recommend.
Enjoyed the shady tree by the river. There was plenty to do on the property, from the game room to watching boats on the river. My whole family (aged 2 to 88) loved the stay.
Literally everything was perfect!! Our host went above and beyond and made us feel welcome and at home. The house was spotless, happy, it’s even prettier than the photos. We will definitely stay again. I can’t recommend it enough!
We chose the Rock Riverside Retreat for a belated family Christmas, and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. The home was large enough to accommodate 14 guests and extremely comfortable. We had enough space to spread out and there were also some cozy gathering spaces, including a sitting area with a wonderful fireplace. The kitchen was large and well-equipped--lots of cooking happened that weekend! Our host, Jaime was extremely easy to communicate with. Rave reviews from all!
The Rock River Retreat was the perfect place for an extended family weekend. There was a total of 14 guests and this house accommodated everyone in extreme comfort. We had ample room to spread out and there were also plenty of great gathering spaces. The view of the river from the west side of the house is breathtaking--we spotted bald eagles all during the weekend! Communication with our host, Jaime was super easy and whenever I contacted her with a question I received a response within minutes. It was a family consensus that we would come back here whenever we wanted to get together!
The house is great! We had 3 generations of family staying there for 4 days/nights. It works very well for large groups, as there is ample space, with multiple living areas. It worked well to gather together, as well as to give different groups their own space as desired. The kids loved the game room and closet full of board games. The kitchen and everything in the house is very well-stocked. They even pulled out a couple of high chairs for our little ones. The big back yard right on the river is amazing. The property owner was extremely helpful and proactively communicated, providing all info needed, including great recommendations on activities in the area. The location is terrific....easy to get to parks, walking/running paths, and downtown. I highly recommend this home, especially for large families / groups.
We found the house to be more than accommodating. Plenty of room for all. It was clean and well equipped. The front yard was huge with a nice little sandy beach. Our age range was 3-84 and everyone felt comfortable. They have so many indoor and outdoor games. We had trouble deciding on which ones to play. The owners couldn’t have been more welcoming and helpful. Thanks Jaime for making our weekend perfect! Only raving reviews for the hosts!!
We had adequate room, beautiful views and easy access to the sandy beach! The house was so comfortable, just like home. Plenty of front yard for games to be set up, and, by the way, they have so many game activities that you will find so many things to do both indoors and out. Very pleased with our experience!
Property was clean and orderly and the host made the process and experience one for the books.
