Whiskey Run Riverhouse on the Mississippi
About this house rental
Whiskey Run Riverhouse boasts the most peaceful and relaxing experience on the Mississippi River riverfront. This tastefully decorated home is located just 5 miles north of the popular river town of LeClaire, Iowa and within walking distance to Go Fish Marina Bar & Grill. One of the best features of this house is the upstairs outdoor deck that allows you to see up and down the river. We have created an entertainment /bar room that is attached to this amazing deck. This is a spacious 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath home with a view of the Mississippi River from nearly every window. When you step into the front door you will find yourself in the four seasons room which will likely be the place you will enjoy your morning coffee while looking at the beautiful view of the river. The house is spacious and has plenty of living room seating to watch your favorite tv show on the large tv. The kitchen is just off the dining room and has everything you need to cook the catfish you catch off our riverfront or simply make your morning coffee. There is a grill located just outside of the kitchen on the back porch. Each bedroom has comfy queen beds and smart tvs. Because this home is on the river, there are railroad tracks behind the home. There are usually 5-6 trains that go by each day/night. Three of the bedrooms and the two full baths are located on the second floor. The 3rd floor attic bedroom will likely be the hangout for the kids. It has a sectional, smart tv as well as a queen and twin bed with additional views of the river! There are many things to do while you stay at Whiskey Run. Go Fish Marina Bar & Grill is within walking distance, The Tiki Tavern will pick you up at our river front and take you to Princeton beach, Olathea Creek Vineyard and Winery, and after a short 5 minute drive and you are in LeClaire enjoying shopping, restaurants, distillery, winery, brewery, the famous Antique Archeology and maybe a ride on the Riverboat Twilight.

Beautiful, relaxing and excellent view! Enjoyed watching a pair of snow geese, Canadian geese, one duck, pelicans, and multiple boats, riverboats, tugs and sea scooters on the river! Trains were noisy, but didn’t mind too much. Thoroughly enjoyed every minute of out vacation.

If I could give this review 10 stars, I would! The house was perfect for our party of 5 adults on an extended girls weekend. Clean, well maintained, updated, and every bit as beautiful as the pictures. It felt like home. Very quiet neighborhood within walking distance to two wonderful bar & grills with great food and drink specials. House is close by to neighboring towns with shopping, wineries and a local brewery & distillery. Would also highly recommend the Tiki Tavern boat cruise rental which docks at the nearby Go Fish Marina Bar & Grill. Thank you, Shiela! Everything was perfect!

Five HS friends enjoyed this lovely home for our 26th annual Girls’ Trip!
The property was clean, comfortable, & nicely decorated. It was supplied with all paper products, kitchen necessities, shampoo, conditioner, body soap, & kitchen soaps. Top of the line appliances.
Sheila was very quick to respond to any questions & very pleasant. She texted a list of many places to dine. We enjoyed Go Fish in Princeton and Biaggi’s Italian Ristorante in Davenport.
Location across the street from the Mississippi River was beautiful & we enjoyed the barge traffic, a fishing contest, pelicans & geese.
The train running behind the house was really no distraction.
Steep steps lead to the 3rd level.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our sta at the Whiskey Run Riverhouse. The house is very spacious with a great balcony overlooking the river. We enjoyed a few meals out there during our weekend stay. One night there was a live band at the Go Fish Marina Bar and Grill down the street, which we could hear from the balcony. Sheila was a very accommodating hostess. She was very responsive and helpful with our various requests. It all made for a great weekend stay. Definitely recommend!

This house fit our group wonderfully. Plenty of beds and sitting spaces. It was so nice when some were working remote, someone was studying, someone was watching tv and someone else was reading. Everyone could find a place to be, but we could still all come together to play a game, watch a movie or enjoy dinner. The kitchen had everything we needed as we cooked most of our meals there. Some reviews complained about the trains, but we're from a railroad family, so we didn't mind and in fact found the closeness rather fascinating. By the 3rd night we had gotten used to the train horns. We thoroughly enjoyed the river view. We walked the road several times. The various neighbors and community members we spoke to were all friendly. Sheila was very responsive to my questions as well. We will return as soon as we can find a clear date on everyone's calendars. This will be our new gathering house.

My long-time college friend’s and I celebrated our collective birthdays over the weekend. It was the perfect house for us to catch up on 20 years of life and relax. Only downside are the loud trains from 11pm-6am. Bring some earplugs. Otherwise, very lovely home beautifuly decorated. Thanks for the hospitality, Sheila!

I am a very experienced traveler and host. The hosts of Whiskey Run Riverhouse are exceptionally considerate, conscientious, kind ...everything that is needed to make any experience worthwhile. The house exceeded expectations in terms of the scale, the separation of space and the thoughtful touches. The location for what we wanted was perfect. We had a great holiday and are grateful to have picked this particular property.

Whiskey River property was very cute, beautiful nautical decor, beds comfy, house was clean and neat. Host communication was very prompt. Few downsides were the rail train that runs multiple times through the night about 100 feet behind the house. It’s loud and rattles the house. Bathroom sink drain on 2nd floor drained very slow. Additionally, I would recommend newer, more secure locks on the back porch door and kitchen door locks. They were antique and beautiful but did not make me feel secure. We didn’t have any issues and the neighborhood felt safe. Street parking was fine for the fall time of year. Host was very kind to provide coffee and wine. We enjoyed our stay.

This was our third stay at this property. Sheila is an amazing host. The HVAC system had to be replaced during our stay and she made sure that we were not inconvenienced by the work. Third stay won't be our last.

We couldn't have gotten a better place to stay. We spent one day in Leclaire, but it was easy drive. There was everything we needed in Princeton, walking distance or at the house. Would diffently recommend Whiskey Run Riverhouse.

The Whiskey Run River House was a perfect spot for a long weekend visit with friends. The house is warm and inviting with several spots to gather and chat. Nothing beats morning coffee on the front porch watching the sun on the river just across the street. There were so many nice and welcoming touches throughout the house that we felt at home right away. Don’t skip visiting Le Claire down the road for fun shopping and dining. We are already looking forward to next year!

Great River Retreat
We so enjoyed being on the river on a quiet road with little traffic. The home is very well supplied with your needs, the kitchen has all you cooking and serving items to entertain. Sheila is very pleasant to work with if you have any questions and she generally gets back to you promptly. You’ll love the front 4 season room and the upstairs balcony. And if you want to eat out, there’s a great place within walking distance. So just enjoy!!

Our second stay at the Whiskey Run Riverhouse. The house really is perfect - with absolutely everything you could need and then some. Lots of space and nooks and crannies for time away from others. The new dock and the patio out front are awesome and we spent a lot of time there. River views from so many spots. We even enjoyed the trains. Also enjoyed the little town of Princeton, Go Fish Bar and Grill, and the nearby winery. Hope to make visits here an annual event.

We loved staying at the Whiskey Run Riverhouse. It was full of older charm while still having all of the modern conveniences. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The setting was beautiful, being able to have a direct view of the Mississippi River - breakfast on the enclosed front porch area and a relaxing afternoon sit on the second floor open air seating area. There were 7 of us, ages 15 through adult, and it was just the right space that we needed. I messaged the host about a couple things (just comments not about anything lacking) and they got back to me in a timely manner. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!
