A riverside cabin in the woods

A wonderful break from the city grind. The home reminded me of every woodsy vacation I ever had complete with open conversation area overlooking the river. Great location to get away close enough to Purdue to commute, far enough away to relax.

So peaceful!

This was our second time staying here and once again we had a wonderful time! The screened in porch is our favorite spot - you can listen to the river while reading and.

Fabulous cabin getaway

The tippecanoe is so much fun for kids and adults to play in. We spent hours playing with the rocks, we even saw a soft shelled turtle on the water! The cabin is very comfortable, clean a relaxing. If I’m ever in this area again I would not hesitate to come back here! Beautiful place!

2nd time enjoying this beauty!

We enjoyed our beautiful nature stay. Deer out front crossing the river. Bald eagles all up and down the river. We spent 2 days on the river from the dam to the bridge just past the house. the river was a little low this time but still a doable trip. we will defiantly be back. we all love this place.

Return vactioners here!

This place is such a find. The river is shallow and easily accessible for fishing or wading. House is spacious and has everything you would need, including board games. No tv is a nice break for our kids and I loved the quiet! Also something to note...there are ZERO mosquitos!!! We brought bug spray and literally never used it! We will surely be back!

Beautiful Views

We had a great time! The house has a really gorgeous view— especially with all the windows. Our kids loved heading across to the island for a nature stomp. I loved hanging out on the patio reading. My husband fished and kayaked. There was something for everyone. Delphi has a near pioneer village and Lafayette has a little zoo and water parks. Plenty do at the house or beyond.

Good alternative

It was a good stay overall. We were in the area to visit our daughter for family weekend at Purdue. We only stayed here as an alternative because there were no hotels near the Purdue campus available. The inside was clean. A little outdated and unfinished in spots, but the seclusion and view was nice. It was about 30 minutes from West Lafayette campus, but not bad. Overall it met our needs and we enjoyed our stay with no issues.

Beautiful river views from cabin living room!

We had a good stay at this renovated cabin with beautiful river views. As shown in pictures, the living space of cabin is above the ground a full flight of stairs. We enjoyed watching wildlife. Bald eagles, hawks, heron, deer crossing river, and more. Our dog enjoyed watching the river and wildlife too. The beds were very comfortable and the A/C worked well. Plenty of comfortable seating and appreciated the large dining table as we were doing some wedding prep (for nephew) and needed extra table space. The internet is helpful as we had little or no cell signal at the cabin. There is a landline as well which we didn’t use but really appreciated that the owner made available. This is a beautiful area that we hope to explore more in the future.

Amazing Location

This house is right on the water and is a great location if you want to fish and watch the river pass you by. Plenty of space to spread out and a large kitchen for cooking meals. We used the charcoal grill to cook some meals and hung out on the covered patio during the day. Cell service is non-existent when you get within a couple miles of the house so be sure you know where you are going. We didn't realize the address shows up in VRBO after the checkin time so we missed it and spent a couple hours in the dark looking for the house (which cannot be seen from the road). We tried contacting the owner but he either didn't get the message or didn't reply. Eiher way we finally found it and it was a very peaceful and perfect place for our trip.

Beautiful location but no hot water or AC!

First of all let me say that this home's setting is beautiful and relaxing. It feels like a treehouse over the river. So we definitely enjoyed that part. The house itself is adequate. It's clearly been partially renovated. Furniture is dated but clean. Kitchen is old but functional. Mattress wasn't great. However, there were two MAJOR issues during our trip that the owner failed to deal with. He eventually stopped returning my messages entirely. 1. AC wasn't working the whole of our 3 day trip and daytime highs were in the 90s. Because nighttime got into the 60s we could open the windows. The house did cool down eventually. Owner said "sorry" but that was it. No one was called out to check on the unit. 2. The hot water heater quit completely our second day (and was only tepid the first day.) The owner told us to push the reset button, but it didn't work. Water was ice cold by the last half of our visit, which I messaged the owner about and received zero response. Because the house was warm we could manage the cold showers, but really?! These two items are BASICS that every rental should have (at least the hot water!) We received no follow up messages from the owner and no offer of any type of refund or restitution. The property listed AC as a feature, but not for us. We have rented many many VRBO and other brand rentals in the past all around the country and have never had something like this happen. I wouldn't call this a cheap rental. But it felt like camping. Not good!

Perfect weekend getaway

This was our third time staying here. It’s perfect for a weekend escape from the city and for tubing down the river. The property has a lot of privacy but all of the neighbors we did meet were really friendly. I would bring blankets though as the room closer to the air conditioner was a lot colder than the other room.

Very secluded with beautiful view out the front panoramic windows. Saw fish jumping, deer, Osprey and a bald eagle bathing in the ripples. A real Valhalla. Spacious seating inside and out. Caught some nice smallmouth bass by wading off the gravel bar out front

Three Senior Sisters

The property was a little too rustic and remote for three sisters ages 66 to 78. That being said, the house was in a beautiful, natural setting complete with blue herons, deer, rabbits, turtles, wildflowers, in a quiet, peaceful setting. Unfortunately, walking up and down through the basement to get in an out was precarious, causing Chris to take a very bad fall leaving her with a mild concussion. I would recommend a safer form of entry.

Relaxing River Paradise

The Large, airy house is clean and comfortable with a well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. The best part? A beautiful view of the Tippecanoe River flowing by a couple of small islands. This is our 3rd or 4th stay and we’re planning for next year already.

Relaxing and Quiet

The property is out of view of the road and neighbors were quiet. It may not be a good place for small children. Lots of steps with living quarters a high height from ground. It was great for a restful, quiet time for adults. The view of the river going by is spectacular.
