Summary: We came for a one night stay to celebrate our daughter’s 14th birthday and to go ghost hunting. This house was absolutely magical and felt like a step into history. The kids enjoyed the whimsical swings and us adults enjoyed the fire pit. The location was absolutely perfect and a short walk into town. The host was easy to reach and responsive. We would stay again! Thank you for your hospitality!

Summary: What an exceptional property! Well done and well appointed complete refurbishment / restoration of this amazing historical home. Million dollar views. The raised fire pit patio area was a relaxing addition. We warmed by the fire as the city lights twinkled below. There are all modern conveniences (minus a TV - which we found refreshing), a beautiful shower, and extremely comfortable beds and linens. I highly recommend this place and plan to return. The history is incredible and we enjoyed the provided historical literature about Jerome, mining, and the history of the Riordan family. What a special delight!

Summary: This house is gorgeous. The story of the restoration is amazing as is the work. The house feels like it must have felt when the Riordans lived there but with the addition of every possible comfort and modern convenience. The views are stunning. The outside space is lovely and useful. We enjoyed every minute of our stay!

Summary: The Riordan House, designed and renovated in the style of the 1890’s (except the bathroom!), is an amazing property: Beautiful, with a great story. Much of that story is documented in photos of the renovation and antiques all over the house. It was clearly a labor of love, and the result is beautiful and fascinating.But I have one major grievance: The owner should alert potential renters that getting to the house is a challenge, on challenging roads.There are two extreme switchbacks, one requiring several moves to achieve the turn, and the quality of the roads is abysmal.We were so upset upon first arriving, we considered spending the rest of the week in town, but, on reflection, we decided if others could do it, and they do!, we could too. We stayed, and got more used to the approach to the house, tho it was never comfortable.I’m glad we stayed: the house is amazing. But the owner should let potential renters know the difficulties in approaching the house. I believe it’s worth the effort, but people should know ahead of time!

Summary: Once you drive up the steep hill and you reach your destination your nerves and body start to relax. The view is inviting to another world. I definitely recommend this house to anyone that wants to reconnect.

Summary: However, we did have a difficult time getting back to the house due to a neighbor parking in the middle of the road.
