Everything we hoped and so much more!
Our plans were to check in and just enjoy the view from the home. The view was outstanding, even with all the leaves off the trees.. the sunsets were magical and the sunrises breath-taking. The row of windows facing the river allows all to enjoy the views even when it's a bit chilly out. We watched the river flow by and the the eagles fly overhead. But, wait, there is more! The inside of the house was immaculate with fun sprinkled all over. The 70's kitsch was nostalgic and the whole home is decorated warmly/comfy. Not only is there a full game room downstairs but the game closet upstairs is jammed packed of hours of games to play. We travel with our dog and the hosts provided food bowls, a large kennel and toys! There isn't much they didn't think of when it comes to vacationer's needs. Hosts were excellent assisting us with checking in and payments. Texts and emails were detailed. We highly recommend this property!

Perfect get-away for a long weekend
We spent 90% of our time here on the shore of the Mississippi (aka the backyard) relaxing, fishing, watching the wildlife and the ships go by. This was a perfect long weekend get-away.

So relaxing, so comfortable!
With breathtaking views of the Mississippi this rental did not disappoint! The host was easily reached when I had a few questions. One of the nicest places I’ve stayed, I had a busy weekend planned and the Three Little Birds River House made me wish I had allowed more time to just relax at the rental. I found the Quad Cities to be delightful, so really, the only thing I would change when returning is planning a longer visit. Highly recommend:)

Relaxation, fun and great views
The house is super cute and welcoming. We enjoyed sitting down by the river watching the sunrise every morning. The first floor game room is perfect for a little get together, plenty of room and lots to do for entertainment. Clean and well appointed. Highly recommend!

Family get together
We had a nice family get together for Easter. The weather didn’t cooperate to be outside, but the game room in the basement provided for some friendly competition. We were able to bring our dog and enjoy the stay. The owners were quick to respond to any questions. The river view was great and we saw eagles.

Great Spot!
Needed lodging for wedding shower with out of town friends was a great spot. A bit out of town, but still close enough. Very spacious and clean and a nice basement to hang out and play games. The beds were not the best but not the end of the world.

Palmer Graduation
Overall a lovely experience - We were able to celebrate, take in the Midwest views, and enjoy neighborly company. The check in process was a bit “wonky”, but other than that we enjoyed our stay. The dryer doesn’t seem to completely dry what you need and could use an update. Downstairs game area is great, and the fire pit is an added bonus. The location is nice and the neighborhood is friendly. Would stay here again!

Great for Eagle Watching!
What a great view of the Mississippi! We were greated with 5 eagles in the tree just acrosse the water. The property was clean and inviting. The bag of ice was a nice surprise for our beverages.There were 4 staying there but only 2 washclothes, so 2 more would have been nice. This is listed as a 2+ bathroom, but is actually a 1 1/2 bath. Be careful on the toilet in the basment as it has a wobble to it. One improvement would be to include what the breakfast that is available is at the house and where to located it. Also, our friends wanted to use the ceiling fan, but commented about the dust on it so they decided not to. Communication with the owner is beyond excellent! Thanks so much for letting us share your home on the Mississippi!

Cozy river side getaway
Great experience overall. As we walked in the the house it was clean and decorated for the holidays. The bottom floor was warm and our kids enjoyed all the games. The upper floor was clean, comfy and cozy and a great place to spend a few days away as a family.

Fun Unique Place
This place was great! Lots of unique little corks, from the retro radio and throw back Nintendo to the full game room/bar downstairs. This place saved my friends and I a lot of money, it didn’t feel like we needed to go out on the town after our round of golf at Deer Run. I was happy to see any suggestions that other guests had for the owners did not go unnoticed. The owners had taken care of all of them. Thanks for a great place to stay and the best memories made!

Nice, but needs more
Please put a dresser in both the bedrooms, even if it's a cheap one. I did not like living out of a suitcase. Also, four towels is not enough. There were four of us, and only four towels--and no towel racks or hooks. We each had to assign our towel to a place (I draped mine over the dryer). More towels and towel racks. Property was "riverfront," which was true, but no access to the river. My brother-in-law said he would have been mad if he'd hauled a boat down there. Other than those easily fixable things, it was a nice place. Sun rise over the river was beautiful. Place was clean and comfortable. Lots of games in the game cabinet.

We plan to stay again! The view of the river was amazing and can be seen from almost every window in the house. The kids loved fishing, sitting by the fire and playing with the games downstairs. The beds and bedding were very cozy. We also enjoyed watching the eagles and other wildlife.

We so enjoyed staying here. A little nook of heaven right along the river. Hosts were amazing, very clean. The fire pit was the hook for us staying there and it was an amazing time sitting around the fire with a group of eagles playing along the river bank. Stay here!
