    We loved staying at the Rivers House. It is located in a quiet neighborhood on a cul-de-sac, so there was no loud traffic. The house was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We highly recommend staying at this property and will stay here again when we come back to Ft. Wayne.

    Our recent experience at the Rivers House was absolutely perfect in every way possible. Our youngest son was getting married at the Paddock and since we reside in Bluffton, we wanted something convenient for all of the festivities. The location is perfect and so is the quiet neighborhood. Tina was an exceptional host and this sweet house had everything and then some that anyone could ever need. I could have stayed for months.......it was that quaint and perfect. And, getting to bring our little furry companion along was just another added bonus. I plan to rent this house again for a girls' weekend with my mom and daughters. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us, Tina.

    Host was welcoming and responsive, home was nice and appropriately priced - we said it felt like going to grandma’s house, just more updated. Really liked the fireplace. The only things we noticed was that it seemed there was some residual dog hair on the couch, the fragrance generator was a bit too strong for us so we unplugged it, and wish there was filtered water available. Otherwise was a nice stay.

We were in town for a wedding but needed a quiet home base as we also had some work responsibilities that need to be done while we were away. The WiFi worked well, rooms had their own TVs, and the home had everything we needed for a home away from home. We’d definitely recommend.

The property was clean and well-maintained, just like last time. There was a brutal heat wave going on the entire week we were there, but it was always comfortable in the house. The neighborhood is quiet and welcoming, feels safe, and is very close to conveniences and necessities.We had no issues during our stay, and we will certainly be looking to book it again next year when we return to Fort Wayne.

The house is in a nice neighborhood that is well maintained and has easy access to Lima Road to be able to get to restaurants and more. I was put off by the Ring doorbell because it made me feel uncomfortable about being watched' but the host explained why it was installed and that they do not watch it unless it seems like there is irregular activity during weird hours. The host was very nice and responded to all of my inquiries promptly.

Plenty of room for everyone to spread out and have their own space. The living area had plenty of seating for Christmas movie watching, and gift opening Christmas morning. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything I needed to prepare Christmas dinner. It is also pet friendly which worked for my oldest daughter to bring her dog with her. Even cute little dog bowls were provided! Tina was great at communicating and there was nothing else we needed. The neighborhood was quiet and safe.

Tina goes out of her way to accomodate your needs including extending your time there a couple more weeks than I originally planned on! Fortunately, I was there during Hurricane Milton instead of in the path of the hurricane at my home in Florida.
