The place was an excellent condition, very clean, a nice place. Rufus, however, is just a good fishing destination not much of a town. But if you’re going to Rufus or nearby, I recommend the place.

Great place to stay!

Though we weren’t in Rufus for the fishing, this place worked out so great for us! We were in town visiting family that was camping at Maryhill State Park and it was a quick jaunt up 84 to the campground. We were super impressed with the thoughtfulness of the vrbo, from the bag sealer to the games to the bag of ice in freezer and everything else in between! It had it all! Communication with the host was also excellent! Would 100% stay there again.

Fishing, Cider Festival, and Wineries!

The house was in a perfect location for our group and had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. The host was fast to reply to all of our communication. My boat landed in the shop just days before the trip, but I can say the parking area was plenty big to accommodate large rigs with access to electricity. We found plenty of activities to keep us entertained in and around Rufus even without the boat. I’d highly recommend this property!

To shower or not to shower. 😂

We didn’t know there was a bed in the boiler laundry room. The place was nice and clean. The kitchen had everything needed for a meal. We couldn’t figure out how the shower head turns on. Had to look the faucet type in Google. lol pretty interesting idea.
