About this property
Peaceful Cottage Getaway Sleeps 6 on Scenic Rock River in Rockford Area
You'll love the amazing river views that greet you in our clean and relaxing two bedroom cottage! We feature a 65" HD Smart TV perfect for Netflix chilling and a fully equipped kitchen for entertaining the whole crew.
Our guests sleep comfortably here with queen beds in both Master and Guest rooms plus a queen pullout in Living Room. The full bath has a tub and shower and the half bath affords everyone privacy..(no arguing who gets the bathroom here!) The open concept Dining/Living Room plus Family Room give ample space for all to stretch out and relax either with a book or to take a nap by the wood burning fire place. The Screen Porch offers peaceful light-filled space for your yoga workout, room for little ones to play or, for our Business Travelers, a work area with a desk and printer/wireless Internet.
Enjoy the beautiful deck and your choice of 2 outdoor fire pit overlooking the Rock River where you'll watch boaters, beautiful sunsets and interesting wildlife.
Perfect weekend getaway for you and/or your family visiting from out of town...only 10 minutes to Rockford but you will feel like you are in the North Woods of Wisconsin! The woods and water just make you say "Ahhhhhh...peace and quiet!" All of our guests love the convenience of shopping/dining 5 min from the house along Rt 173 including Target, Lowes, Panera, Meier Grocery and so much more!
Sorry insurance does not cover swimming or use of our boats. But feel free to bring your own watercraft and tie off at our dock during boating seasons. No pets or smoking allowed.
