The Riverhouse was clean and had all the comforts of home! This area is beautiful and we enjoyed fishing and viewing the fall foliage so much! Loved the screened in porch and having our own dock to use. Looking forward to coming back soon! Thanks Diane!

Repeat Guest

We stayed here two years ago and couldn’t wait to return. Calico Rock is incredibly peaceful and the house has all the comforts of home. We look forward to patiently waiting for the beaver or river otters to make their appearance morning and evening. Our host communicates so well and is incredibly kind.

This was our 2nd stay at the Riverhouse, and we loved it again! Diane is the nicest person to work with, and the house has all you need for a comfortable getaway. The river is the star, though - such a beautiful spot! Hoping to come back again.

Perfect river getaway!

We absolutely loved the Riverhouse and this beautiful spot on the White River! As other reviewers have already said, the house is so thoughtfully fitted out with so many things to make you feel at home and able to relax. Diane is the best hostess, and the nicest person you could ever want to work with, and we are already trying to figure out when we can come back!

Great cabin on the river

The hostess and I really connected. She thought of everything you might need. A bag of ice in the freezer and fresh flowers! The little things make a difference. The cabin is adorable and very clean. We really enjoyed our stay. We will be back.

Relaxing week away from home

The house has everything you need including everything you need to cook. Beautiful views directly on the river and with a private boat dock. We spent the majority of our time down there. Diane was a great host and stayed in touch to make sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be back. It’s the perfect home away from home.

Perfect get away!

Rented the house for a ladies get away and loved it! The dock on the river and the screened in porch are amazing! If you are looking for a quiet place in the country you should try this place. Have stayed places that are "fancier" but nothing compares to the atmosphere of this place. LOVED IT and plan on coming again next year. Highly recommend! And our host Diane could not not been better. Very attentive and friendly.

Great host

Loved the host, the luxurious bath towels and bedding, the super stocked kitchen, the beautiful deck, the clean house, and time spent with family. Some things in the house really need attention-kitchen cabinets, shower heads that wouldn't adjust, and aerators on all the sinks.

Fantastic getaway

We came here on family vacation and had a wonderful time. The cabin had everything you could think of, you just need food. Diane was a great hostess, checked in on us several times to make sure we had what we needed and suggested local attractions. Fishing off the dock wasn’t great, but we think it was just too hot, upper 90’s the whole week. My son did catch 2 trout one night. Very quiet getaway and just what this family needed!!! 5 stars all around!

Wonderful little getaway!

We had such a great time at Diane’s cabin. It is right on the river and far away from any hustle and bustle. Diane is a wonderful host! She was always quick to respond to any questions prior to arriving and was also very accommodating while we were there. The screened in porch was one of our favorites, especially in the morning when it was still nice and cool out. The best thing about our stay was how welcoming Diane was to our pups. They typically don’t get to travel with us due to the ridiculous extra fees or just simply because dogs are not allowed. Our two dogs loved swimming in the river. We had a wonderful experience and hope to be able to visit again soon in the near future!

About the host

Hosted by Diane

Host profile image
I am a retired educator from Northeast Arkansas. We purchased the Riverhouse in 2012 and in 2013 purchased another house in the area.

Why they chose this property

The property can only be seen from the river unless you drive down the private drive. There are only 5 houses so it’s is a quiet neighborhood. The screened-in porch overlooking the river is my favorite place for morning coffee and relaxing in the late afternoon.

What makes this property unique

This property comes with its own private boat dock for parking your boat during your stay. Our guests enjoy fishing from the boat dock, watching the eagles fly over and the cows drinking and cooling off across the river from the pasture. There are not many boat docks on the White River in this area and one of the main reasons we purchased this property.
