About this property

The Renwick Mansion - One of Davenport's finest historic properties

The Renwick Mansion is Davenport's finest example of Italian Revival Architecture. With panoramic views overlooking the Mississippi River, downtown Davenport, and the Village of East Davenport, this beautiful villa sits on four acres of land and is listed on the National registry of Historic Places in Scott County. A perfect place to host weddings, family reunions, leaderships meetings, corporate events, slumber parties, anniversary celebrations, memorial services, extended stays and more!
Exceptional detail can be found in every room, with 13 1/2 ft. ceilings the three grand parlors and a library on the main floor all have original marble fireplaces that have been updated to gas. Also included on the main floor is a large marble foyer, a half bathroom and a kitchen with an exquisite tin ceiling and that is equipped with a large refrigerator, new convection oven/microwave, sinks, a butler's pantry with service ware and cooking appliances. Aside from the lounge the first floor is very open, and we provide many options for tables and chairs that can be set up as needed for your stay, from a family stay to a party of 140. If you are planning a large party we also offer a full bar with staff for the event.
Up the original 3 story open staircase to the second floor, are 6 fully furnished bedrooms: 4 with queen size beds, 2 with 2 twin size beds, 4 with fireplaces, and 3 with balconies. Also on the second floor is a full bathroom with a claw foot bathtub, sitting areas, and access to the main balcony above the porte cochere where you can look over downtown, the Mississippi River, and the beautifully lit centennial bridge.
The third story includes 2 beautiful bedrooms with queen beds, a second kitchen, full bathroom including a claw foot bathtub, two beautifully furnished sitting rooms, one which is used as our Bridal Suite for weddings with a vaulted ceiling, and sky lights.
At last, our proclaimed "best view in Davenport" resides on the fourth level which is the tower where you get a full panoramic view of the Mississippi River, Village of East Davenport and downtown Davenport. The tower is the best place to sit and watch the sun set and rise over the river and downtown.
**Because we are primarily a wedding venue we cross-advertise and cannot offer instant booking. Weekend rates during wedding season reflect this, with tables, chairs and staffing available/included.

18th Birthday to Remember!
I can't rave enough about this incredible property! The house does not disappoint. A dance competition brought us to Bettendorf on the same weekend my son turned 18! What better way to celebrate he and his bestie(who turned 18 the day before him) than to stay in a mansion with a dozen of your best friends!! This property has everything you could imagine... an observation tower to overlook the river, a parlor for the dad's to play cards and the amenities to have a tritely memorable 18th birthday! The icing on the cake was the incredible property manager, Dane, who was flexible, communicative and overall made this the easiest stay I have had at a VRBO property. If I could give this stay 20 stars it still wouldn't be enough! Thank you so much Dance and Renwick Mansion for memories that will last a lifetime!!!

Awesome Mansion
The mansion is really cool if you like historic design. We really enjoyed our stay and the accomodations were good. The bathrooms are not ideal for as many people as we had and the showers (in claw foot tubs) are challenging for older folks, but it was worth it.

Family Holiday Get Together
We had 10 family members that came together for our wonderful holiday celebration. Renwick was perfect for the occasion allowing plenty of space, lots of ambience and beautifully decorated for the holiday. We prepared a couple of meals at the house and found the kitchen well stocked with everything we needed. The owners were very helpful.
