Ohio River Retreat - Relax Riverside With Us

Needing a rural place to get away? This cozy 1 1/2 story, 3 bedroom, 2 bath house that sleeps 8 has a front row seat to the beauty of The Ohio River. Relax on one of our decks, relax river side by the outdoor fire pit, or watch the barge traffic from inside. The house sits within minutes of The Hoosier National Forest offering hiking / fishing and a peaceful atmosphere, 50 minutes from Holiday World, and 55 minutes from French Lick. (Pet Friendly / Strong WIFI / Gas Grill, NO WATER ACCESS)

This house offers three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. There's also a loft with a full sized futon if needed. The kitchen is fully stocked (except for food of course) for all your cooking needs. There is a second driveway on the other side of our road that is available for extra cars or to park a boat. Located about 50 minutes from Holiday World.
The front door has a code lock and you will be given your own code prior to your stay. As there is no need for anyone to let you in, you can arrive at any time. There are four spacious decks to choose from in the back of the house, each with an amazing view of the Ohio river, especially at sunrise. The lower deck has a built in fire pit that is perfect for roasting marshmallows.

Guests have access to the entire property.

To get the peaceful views like this you know you must be in a rural area. With rural comes with a bit of a drive to every where you want to go, and spotty cell phone coverage due to the large rolling hills. If rural your thing, this is the perfect get away!

Just the ticket for a quiet, restful week. Loved watching the wildlife and river traffic! Plenty of bedrooms to stretch out. Two full baths and laundry area allowed us to make ourselves right at home.

Away From It All
Wanted a quiet getaway with my 80’s+ parents. Selected this particular property for that purpose. Excellent location, prime river views, quiet neighborhood, and well-appointed property. The river traffic was busy and the riverside firepit was enjoyed by all. Great stay!

Such a great place to stay. It was absolutely gorgeous and, most importantly, Quiet!! The only bad thing was that we had to leave to get back to work. It couldn’t have been more perfect and we fully intend to make a repeat visit outside of a busy wedding weekend where we can enjoy the property to its fullest.

Excellent accommodations
We would highly recommend this VRBO. Right on the Ohio River and the property has different level decks and an area with a fire ring. Very peaceful. And windows everywhere so you don't miss a thing. We would definitely stay here again. Plenty of room. The owner was amazing also and grew up in the area so very knowledgeable.

Awesome River Retreat
We had an fabulous time in this Magnet, IN house. The views were awesome and we really enjoyed the outdoor spaces to just sit and watch all of river traffic. The house was immaculate and had everything we needed. All appliances were high end something you don't often get in a rental unit. It was especially nice to be able to bring our 2 dogs along with us. We would definitely stay here again!!!

Wonderful stay. Beautiful view on the Ohio River. Very quiet and peaceful. We were unable to operate the master bedroom overhead light but other than that, this was an exceptional space to rent. It was very clean and well cared for. We would definitely stay here again. A gem.

If you’re looking for the perfect getaway, this is it! The view is outstanding; bring your binoculars! Three bedrooms to spread out, well equipped kitchen, and a fire pit by the Ohio River. WI-FI never let us down. Shane was always quick to respond to our communications. Easy entry and plenty of parking. Well equipped for canine members of the family. We’re already planning our return trip!

Perfect getaway!
The property was exactly as described and included all the basics which was an added bonus. Gorgeous views from the master and living room area. Kitchen was fully equiped if you wanted to cook meals. The back patios (a little too chilly when we were there to use them) had plenty of seating to take in the scenery. Nice outdoor fire pit area too. The book the owners left in the house gave tons of information for things to do in the area if you wanted to leave. We had a great getaway!!

Serenity and Nature
My husband & I enjoyed our 4 day and night stay and didn't want it to end. The home is beautiful and clean with spectacular views of the Ohio River. Sitting on the deck, watching nature , the river barges ,or reading a book is so relaxing. No distractions and peace. Love that it's rural and the closest larger town Tell City is about 25 miles away. Home was extremely comfortable and cared for. All the comforts of home. Shane was a great host and available if needed. Will definitely return to this peaceful oasis on the river.

Perfect Getaway
Amazing 5 days! The home was lovely! Very clean. The views were so beautiful. I have stage 4 breast cancer and the last year and a half have been difficult. This is just what the doctor ordered. My husband and I found a calmness we haven't had for a long time. We just stayed in the house the entire time to enjoy the beauty around us. Very quiet and so serene. Can't wait to rebook!
