We were looking for the perfect place to relax that was peaceful, comfortable and with a good location. This place is perfect!!!
Serene and secluded with a gorgeous river view and yet only 10 minutes to Main Street and all it has to offer.
Wish I could give more that just 5 stars!!!!

This home is amazing. It was super clean and the view was awesome. We took the Grands to Hannibal and this house was perfect for us. It is so close to all the attractions in Hannibal but you feel like you are away from it all. Highly recommend!

Just relaxed and hung out together. Saw some sites.

Great base place for Hannibal sights. In addition to regular places(caves, mark twain riverboat, downtown tour) don’t miss Riverview Park, Rockcliff Mansion, Mark Twain Lake visitor center, Florida Missouri (@Mark Twain lake) where Sam Clements boyhood home and museum is, Lock 22, and Somalis Nature Preserve.

Lovely property on a bluff above the Mississippi, with a great deck to enjoy the eagles, boats and sunrise. Very comfortsble and clean home with high quality beds and large bathroom. Lots of little extras supplied in the house for fun and comfort. Very private setting with well tended yards. Carol and Ted are super nice hosts as well. We have stayed there twice, and will again in the future.

This was our second stay with Ted and Carol. They are great hosts and the location above the Mississippi River is fantastic as you can watch all the river traffic. Hannibal is an interesting town with lots of murals and Tom Sawyer stuff.

Easy to find the house, close to town. In the first 10 minutes of being there, we saw a bald eagle, a paddle boat, and a barge. Kitchen was fully equipped and there were even snacks. Highly recommended!

Nice location with a spectacular view. Clean and well appointed, with lots of extras and great area insights! We were only there for one night, but already thinking about a return. Hannibal is a neat place!

Efficient communication for easy access. Great location to downtown. We walked to lookout point (only 1mile but very steep climb) Ample deck space with beautiful nature and river views, quiet. Very clean space. The extras were nice touch (snacks, local info brochures, photo books, and owner notes).

A very nice, well kept, welcoming home with a great view of the Mississippi river, enjoyed by me and my black lab for a couple of nights.

We came on Feb 13, Valentine Eve, to attach our lovelock to the Hearts of Lover’s Leap. We also toured the riverfront and lighthouse and ate in a local diner. Staying at Rocky Top continued the romantic vibes, with the decor inside and the majestic view outside. Conveniently located, The accommodations were spotless clean, with entertainment and snacks thoughtfully provided. It can be a challenge to get luggage up the stairs, though, so may want to pack light. We enjoyed our visit to Hannibal and our stay at Rocky Top, hope to return in future; have to give 5.0 stars here!

Wonderful house and setting! We spent a frigid and snowy weekend at the house and were SO COMFY and relaxed. The view across the river and watching the bald eagles was magical and entertaining. The unit had everything you could want, and extras stocked as well. Super clean, awesome king bed. We rebooked for summer before we left. This will be one of our favorite escapes to visit in the future.

Carol was a gracious hostess. The place was even better than I expected. Very very clean & truly refreshing & relaxing. Close enough to town but yet felt private. I will certainly recommend to others & hope to stay again in the future.

We enjoyed our stay.

The place was perfection. It's even better than in the photos because photos can't capture the feeling of being in a perfectly clean and well-appointed house on a cliff overlooking the Mississippi River and beyond to the horizon. We had our Doberman Shepherd dog with us who loved fetching sticks in the yard and going on walks down the trail into the woods. Even the landscaping was perfect. Carol, the host, always responded right away to my questions large and small. Here and her husband's home is right next to the guest cottage but the way things are set up you don't see them and vice verse. Hannibal is a super cute town and is nearby. I hope to return soon.

the location and property were top notch and the views were exceptional. Everything we needed was readily accessible and the opportunities to explore the areas many sites were with-in minutes of the house. I would recommend this facility to anyone!!!

Rocky Top Guesthouse overlooking the Mississippi River is a fantastic rental for 2 or even 4 people. Note the FULL kitchen with many pantry items, even aluminum foil and plastic wrap! What a joy to wake with view of sun rising over the river from your bed! The host, Ted and Carol, are so nice and promptly answer any questions. The location is perfect. It is very quiet and private yet near Hannibal activities. To me, this is the BEST place to stay when visiting Hannibal area. I read many of the reviews before booking this location and they all are accurate!

All the comforts of home and more. This is an absolutely beautiful property and the home is immaculate. We enjoyed the view of the river and watching the river traffic. We were close to shopping and restaurants and took advantage of both. We would recommend this rental without hesitation.

The hosts leave you with so many amenities you don’t expect. We brought our dog and they were very accommodating. The house is better than the pictures. The view is amazing and it really is close to all of the attractions Hannibal has to offer. We never needed anything from them, so we never saw or talked with our hosts. Just one of the best places we ever stayed at. Thank you!

We stayed two nights at the Rocky Top guest house. The house is just a few minutes scenic drive from Hannibal. The homeowners were fantastic communicators. The welcome book, picture books, and little notes left in the house were the perfect welcoming touch and helped make our stay so comfortable. The home was spotlessly clean; the pictures don't do it justice. We will stay here again if we are in the area. The perfect home-base for enjoying all that the Hannibal area has to offer!!

The views are even better than the pictures show. Loved watching the Mississippi river go by as well as the traffic on the river. The birds, large and small were fun - saw an Eagle several times and Cardinals. The proximity to Hannibal is very handy - lots to see and do. Enjoyed the Mark Twain cave, Lover's Leap, Riverside Park, Antique stores. Brick Oven pizza was good! Hope to come back again!

This place has perfect views of the river and railroad track along the bank! It was immaculate and comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. I honestly can't think of anything that would improve this rental. The deck was a favorite spot to gather with our best friends. And even inside you had a great view of the river and nature . We heard and saw many birds and a couple of eagles in flight. And the location to town was perfect, just far enough away but close enough to get to. The steps leading up to the entry and the steep driveway were not an issue. We will definitely return during a different season. This place gets every star possible!

The homeowners have taken an extra step by labeling and noting many things throughout the home that will help the guest with their stay. I absolutely loved all the notes and all the photo albums. It was very clean and comfortable.

The guesthouse was the perfect private place to getaway. It was furnished with everything needed and the views are spectacular. Watching the sunrise from the bed was one of my favorite things.

The view of the Mississippi River was amazing and we spotted Bald Eagles several times during our visit. Accommodations were clean, comfortable and spacious. Felt at home and very peaceful. Great location to visit several of the local attractions. We hope to visit this host in the future.

We absolutely loved our four days and nights at Rocky Top. The view from the guesthouse at the top of the bluff is amazing - beautiful sunrises and lots of eagles. The weather was a little too chilly for us to make much use of the deck, but it's a perfect outdoor spot in nice weather. The house is clean, comfortable, nicely decorated, and cozy, with all of the necessary furnishings. It's a very convenient location near the cave and a couple of minutes from downtown. Carol is always very quick to reply to any questions.
