About this property

Recently remodeled Nauvoo home, 7 acres on the river

Newly renovated home can accommodate up to 8 guests. A secluded retreat right on the Mississippi River and just minutes from historic Nauvoo and the Nauvoo Temple. There is a queen bed in the master bedroom, and three sofa sleepers with upgraded memory foam mattresses. If needed there is also a pack n play and an air bed that can be blown up. There is a fully-stocked kitchen including a small crock-pot, KitchenAid stand mixer, and some herbs and spices for cooking.
There are so many fun things to see and do in and around Nauvoo. Besides the wonderful historic sites which are wonderful to visit, we love to golf at Deer Run just a few minutes away from our home, swim and play frisbee golf at the community park/pool in Hamilton, eat out at Angelini's in Keokuk, enjoy a fire at night overlooking the river, watch some amazing sunsets, go fishing, watch movies, play games, bird watching etc.

Very clean & comfy! It is right on a busy road but it is quiet at night. If you’re thinking of fishing, you need to find other nearby places as there is a lot of grass, logs, and mud. Regardless, it was a great stay and would book again.

Beautiful home, very comfortable. Well stocked with everything you could possibly need. The view of the river was great and the sunsets were beautiful.Would have been all 5 stars if not for the cleaning snafu, which I believe was an accident and not the norm.

About the host

Hosted by Mary Ann Marchant

Host profile image
Nauvoo is our happy place. We have put our whole hearts into remodeling this river home in Nauvoo and are grateful for all those that have helped make this house a beautiful home. We would love to share this home with others that are looking to enjoy the special town of Nauvoo and the surrounding areas. We love to spend time together as a family watching the most beautiful sunsets, seeing bald eagles, deer, otters and even turkeys in the wild. Golfing, swimming, frisbee golf, roasting marshmallows at the fire pit, and enjoying our favorite nearby restaurants. We hope you love it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We saw this property online in 2018 and could not pass up the chance to own a house near one of our favorite places. The fact that it was right on the Mississippi River was a huge bonus.

What makes this property unique

This house is beautifully situated with the most magnificent views. It is 5 minutes from Keokuk, IA (right across the river) where there is shopping and lots of restaurants. There are fun places to eat right in Nauvoo, as well as fun gift shops and boutiques.
