About this house rental
Spectacular 180 degree view of the Mighty Mississippi! Enjoy sipping a cup of coffee from the deck or in the kitchen nook watching the river meander by. Quiet neighborhood, located in between Ft. Madison and Keokuk. Historic Navoo, Illinois is just 1.5 mi. across the river or 20 minutes away by car along a beautiful scenic route!! Awesome place to relax, refresh and enjoy the beauty of the river valley.
Fishing poles are available to wet a line and see what the river may give up for your next dinner.
One thing very interesting to do is watching the barges lock through at Keokuk.
No matter what time of year there is always natures beauty around.. Spring brings migrating waterfowl going north, sometimes there will be many hundreds of thousands of Snow geese. Summer still waterfowl but with babies, the Purple Martins are around. Fall-migrating waterfowl going south with the colors of the changing trees. Winter-when the river freezes eagles will ride ice flows down the main channel and there are usually hundreds of eagles below the locks and dams.
We have 3 kayaks, inner tubes, and a12' john boat. Life preservers

Great location, nice area, house set up well. It just needs a little updating, I've stayed there before and its all great......time to upgrade a bit

When I first arrived only one ac unit was installed. It was 88 degrees in the house so I made sure with the owner that I could put them in. So that wasn't great. The house wasn't dirty but it was dusty (like it had been cleaned a few weeks ago). The view and location are great. The furniture is comfortable. I booked for two weeks, at one point the owner called me after 9pm to let me know windows were being installed the next day. At 8am the handyman showed up, he asked me if I was alone, which is an inappropriate question. Also the handyman left a mess, that I did not clean up. The windows also took two days, so it seemed rude to do that while a paying guest was staying. I have never had these types of issues before. The owners seem very nice, I just prefer a private experience when I book houses.

Charming quiet neighborhood for our stay and was just the right size for 6 adults.
However, needs some attention on the cleaning. We had mouse droppings in one of the bedrooms and all the bedrooms needed vacuuming.
All the window A/C units needed to be sealed. We had wasp getting into the bedrooms from the unsealed areas and bugs at night. Tried using packing tape to seal up the holes.
Needed to wash the bedding before using.
This could be a very charming place. Beautiful location right on the river and plenty of wildlife to see in the river and flying around.
Even with the issues we had a wonderful time with friends sightseeing and playing games.
