This house is such a gem. We had a great stay there. Really special inside they’ve done a great job making it feel so exceptional. They even had handmade soaps which they left a note that we should take home and a bottle of wine. What a great experience!

Never disapointed staying here

First off, I'd like to say this has to be one of the cleanest houses I have ever stayed at and this is our 4th stay looking forward to our stay in October. This is a house for family friends and especially fishing buddies. I'd love to thank the host Todd and his lovely wife for making this an amazing stay once again. Thank you, guys see, you in October.

I’ve stayed at several Pulaski/Altmar properties listed through VRBO, and this is among the best. A little quirky - the listing said nothing about a stubbed baboon - but quirky in a good way. Layout of the property and its proximity to the water were perfect for ou

Amazing place to stay

We were a group of five young fishing buddies on a weekend fishing trip and were blown away by the refurbished church. It had such character and the taxidermy was top notch! It is situated in small town and was an easy walk to local stores and the river. Todd and Jen were very communicative and hospitable leaving some treats from their farm. Would definitely go back and stay for a fishing trip, but would also like to vacation here with my family.

We can’t get enough of this beautiful home!

Jen & Todd are literally the most accommodating and attentive couple we’ve ever rented from on VRBO! Year over year they have gone out of their way to increase the value, through their hospitality this beautiful rental already provides. Both myself and my group are always so thankful to have such a beautiful house to stay in for our annual salmon fishing trip! Thanks again for a great weekend, there’s no place we’d rather stay!

Perfect Stay

Five of my college friends and I stayed at this property for our winter Steelhead trip. It was perfect. Everyone had a place to sleep. We were one block away from the local dive bar and pub (Altmar hotel) and we were only 1.5-2 blocks away from the lower fly fishing zone. There is a smart TV in the living room, a grill, a well stocked kitchen, four bedrooms, and a plethora of interesting taxidermists to stare at and ponder with you friends. My friends and I all agreed that there isn’t a better property for a guys trip to the salmon river. Book here.

A fisherman's dream home

I really don't want to give an excellent review because I want this home all to myself haaaa. Communication with the owners was amazing. The house was user friendly in all ways the beds were very clean the house was amazingly clean. I can't begin enough to say that This house is going to be our or home when we come up during fishing season during fishing season every year. This beautiful and comfortable house is one stop shopping has everything you need all you need to do is just go grocery shopping once. The house warming gifts were just amazing thank you very much for putting your time and effort into it... The husband and wife duo definitely put some care and love into this house thank you guys again see you next year... PS I might come back with my wife and kids.

Church Inn

We had a great time on our fishing trip staying at this converted church home. The accommodations were comfortable and fit our needs. The decor of the home was perfect for our crew, the mounts of fish and animals set a nice tone as a fishing camp. I would recommend this property and hope to stay there next year.

Fantastic Little Inn

While clearly a fishing lodge (and it is absolutely perfect for that purpose), we had friends getting married at the Tailwater, and the location of the house was perfect. Our friends who dropped by loved the barn doors and wood floors, and we also loved that we were greeted with local treats from the hosts. Definitely would recommend and would stay there again!
