Beautiful view from a cozy, well appointed home.
We very much enjoyed our stay for a long weekend while we were visiting family in the area. Our adult son was with us so it was nice to have two separate living areas where we could spend time but also have a bit more privacy than most shared spaces offer. We loved the digital board game and shared several rounds of monopoly! The view is top notch and the kitchen is well appointed. Comfy beds! Ignore the unfriendly signs from the neighbor - we never saw him despite signs he leaves near the entrance. It's worth noting that it is VERY dark if you arrive at night - we used our cellphone flashlight to navigate the stairs.

Lots of "at home" entertainment. Great Lake views
Our family of 6 adults and 2 dogs really enjoyed our stay! There is a lot to enjoy here. The hot tub is great, several outdoor games to play. I enjoyed relaxing in the hammock and making s'mores in the fire pit. Would recommend this Vrbo listing to friends!

The property is absolutely beautiful. I wish it was warmer when we stayed and would love to go back in the summer. The hosts were easy to get a hold of with questions and replied promptly.

Perfect Quiet Getaway
My stay at this property was so lovely. It is in a beautiful setting on the river. The house itself was very well decorated with LOTS of amenities. I felt like I was staying in a resort. The beds were so comfortable, and the place was very dog friendly. I hope to come back in the warmer months so I can see and enjoy more of the wildlife. I had such a relaxing visit, it was the perfect retreat for a dreary February.

Cedar Rapids Wedding
My son got married in Cedar Rapids, and we stayed here with our family. The location was great and great mid way spot between Cedar Rapids and Iowa City. It was chilly so didn’t get to try the kayaks and stuff but the hot tub was as a huge hit, as was the 2 arcade games, Pac-Man and Mortal Combat with both kids and adults. The house was beautifully decorated and great for a family where the adults can be upstairs and the kids playing downstairs. There is a spiral staircase going from upper level to downstairs which may be challenging if you have very young kids/toddlers or older but I am sure there is another way outside you could use. I will tell you from experience that three car parking limit in front of VRBO is no joke. There was one night some of my family that lived local to Iowa were coming for dinner and I thought they were car pooling so we would have no more than the 3 cars out front, and they ended up driving separately. I didn’t realize and hadn’t given them the very clear instructions for overflow parking close by. The neighbor is NOT very friendly AT ALL and was furious and was going to have all the cars towed even though no one was blocking him from his driveway. Thankfully Ishita was able to reach out before the towing company came. So if you plan on having company and more than the 3 allotted cars make sure to follow the instructions for the overflow parking area so your dinner party doesn’t get interrupted with a scramble to move cars!

Amazing cabin getaway
We loved this property! Everything was very accurate to the pictures. The house is well stocked with everything you'll need while staying there. It was the perfect peaceful location for a few days to unwind. We would love to go back sometime. The hosts were very responsive to all of our questions that came up during the visit. There was a plumbing issue on our last day checking out but we called the hosts and they arrived within 30 minutes with someone to fix it. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.

Weekend Escape
We made the trip up to Iowa from Kansas City for a weekend getaway. Finding the property was very easy and upon entering the home we were very pleased with the accomodations. The design and decoration of the home was modern with a laid-back atmosphere. The house has all of the amenities we needed and we enjoyed the selection of board games, arcade games, and blue tooth speakers throughout the property during our stay. Each evening we spent some time in the hot tub and found it to be a great way to wind down the day. The hosts were excellent with their communication and attentive to our needs upon check-in and check-out. The surrounding areas provide plenty of options for activities, we made sure to explore plenty of MacBride State park while there, as well as the areas surrounding Corallville lake. Definitely recommend the Funcrest Dairy and Grille about ten minutes to the south, wonderful chicken and tenderloin sandwiches. The only minor gripe we had, is we found it difficult to swim from the property. The walk down to the water is a bit steep and the rocks and wakes from the passing boats on the river made it a bit difficult, we assumed the water might have been a bit low. However, there are still plenty of places to go swimming at the surrounding parks so not a big deal. Overall, we had a wonderful trip and will look to book this property again if we're back in the area.

Hi Paul, we are do glad you had a wonderful stay and really appreciate all your comments. We just installed a new dock which should make it much easier to swim, fish or launch kayak/boats. The path down to the dock and river still remains rocky as that is government land and we can't do much about it and it depends on the water levels. Although, we did try to move some big rocks around and removed loose rocks to create a stable pathway down to the dock. I look forward to welcoming you again soon!!

Lovely House, Good Location, Water Access (?)
We rented this house for a family vacation with my sister's family, including young children. The house itself is very nice. The games in the basement are a great addition and the screened in porch is AWESOME. We did have an issue with wasps on the steps leading to the front door which made the steps pretty nerve wracking to use. I called Ishita and she had an exterminator out there that day which I really appreciated. Unfortunately, it didn't work and the wasps continued to block use of the steps forcing us to climb a hill to the parking area. I did not have a chance to tell Ishita about that as my mother-in-law passed away unexpectedly and our family had to leave the house early (obviously) though my sister's family stayed. I really cannot fault Ishita for that issue since she tried to correct it, but it was a bummer. The other real issue we had was the advertised water access. Yes, there is access, but honestly, it's not very usable. The path down to the water is extremely rocky with rocks that shift under your feet and no real bank. We expected the rocky shoreline from the photos, but it really was not usable with two young kids. However, the house is VERY conveniently located to a great public sand beach which we went to often, as well as local restaurants and grocery stores. If you need a quiet, pretty place to relax, this is a good choice. I would not recommend if you are seeking a place with water access on the property for boating, swimming etc.

Hello Brynna! I am so glad you had a wonderful stay! I am sorry about the issue with the wasps and it didn't get corrected right away. Being close to the water we do see a lot of bug activity during summer months. We do regular pest control applications to minimize the impact as much as possible. I am happy to report that the wasps near stairs are completely gone. Regarding the water access, I totally understand that the path to the water is rocky and we do mention that in our listing. We now have a BRAND NEW DOCK that makes it very easy to launch kayaks, swim or fish although the path down still remains rocky. The land belongs to Army Co of Engineers and unfortunately we cant change the landscape. The water levels also impact how far down one needs to travel. But am glad you were able to make use of nearby beach areas for the kids to swim!! I hope you come back and visit us soon and enjoy the new dock!

Hidden Wonderful Getaway
Words cannot explain how beautiful and zen this lakehouse truly was! The views were incredible and the house was beautiful and clean. There were so many games/activities for our kids who range in age 6-14. It checked off all of our boxes and had a little something for everyone. This will be our annual family vacation destination and it even includes waterfront access and canoeing boats to enjoy! This place truely is a little slice of heaven in Iowa!

Beautiful and tranquil
This house was very nice. Great deck overlooking the lake. Nice grill that we made good use of. My only negative was they advertise Private River Access. That’s a stretch to put it mildly. The river access is a path over treacherous loose rocks down to the shore. I rented a boat specificallly in order to be able to use the river access. No dock, nowhere to tie up a craft. We had to return it to the Marina every night - kind of an unanticipated hassle. Otherwise, it was a very nice property. North Liberty is a beautiful little town with lots of great please to eat and drink. And Coralvill Lake is one of our favorites.

Lovely spot!
Had a fun getaway weekend with friends as a halfway point between Kansas City and Chicago. The property was great, the house was impeccably decorated, amenities were great, and we loved the spot. The only issue was the smell of the water supply... thankfully we brought bottled water based on recommendations. However even showering or washing dishes was unpleasant due to the water smell. Just something to consider if you're sensitive to that!
