Recent stay

The house itself was very nice but the outside needs some TLC. The listing shows 2 bathrooms but in truth there is one full bath and a toilet with utility sink in the basement/game room area. The views were beautiful but sitting outside was not of interest

Peace and quiet in a comfy cottage

What a nice rental. Easy communication with the owners. Cottage had everything we needed AND video/pinball games. Perfect distraction during some very wet weather. When it wasn’t raining we took advantage of the Quad Cities and some of what they have to offer. Would return to Pleasant Valley and stay here again.

Needed lodging for wedding shower with out of town friends was a great spot. A bit out of town, but still close enough. Very spacious and clean and a nice basement to hang out and play games. The beds were not the best but not the end of the world.

Relaxation, fun and great views

The house is super cute and welcoming. We enjoyed sitting down by the river watching the sunrise every morning. The first floor game room is perfect for a little get together, plenty of room and lots to do for entertainment. Clean and well appointed. Highly recommend!

Beautiful River House

We so enjoyed staying here. A little nook of heaven right along the river. Hosts were amazing, very clean. The fire pit was the hook for us staying there and it was an amazing time sitting around the fire with a group of eagles playing along the river bank. Stay here!

Went for a baseball, loved the relaxation

We were in town for the Bettendorf baseball tournament. These accommodations were perfect for us to be at the field during the day and relax at night. It made our getaway like a little vacation oasis. Thank you, if ever nearby again, would definitely stay again.

Cozy river side getaway

Great experience overall. As we walked in the the house it was clean and decorated for the holidays. The bottom floor was warm and our kids enjoyed all the games. The upper floor was clean, comfy and cozy and a great place to spend a few days away as a family.

Fun get away

Only a couple hours from where we live in Illinois and easy to get to to. Road going in is a bit rough but the house is simple and good set up for a small family. Close to lots of restaurants and stores. Kids enjoyed the video games in the basement.

Family get together

We had a nice family get together for Easter. The weather didn’t cooperate to be outside, but the game room in the basement provided for some friendly competition. We were able to bring our dog and enjoy the stay. The owners were quick to respond to any questions. The river view was great and we saw eagles.

I’ll Be Back Again!

We plan to stay again! The view of the river was amazing and can be seen from almost every window in the house. The kids loved fishing, sitting by the fire and playing with the games downstairs. The beds and bedding were very cozy. We also enjoyed watching the eagles and other wildlife.

We are short drive to many the local hot spots, such as Vibrant Arena, Iron Tee Golf and Green Tree Brewery.

This property is very unique. From the huge game room to the river front views, and to the nostalgic decorating charm. This house is made to make memories for our guests.
