It is a truly beautiful and peaceful rural location with quick access to a bigger city and all the options you expect to find there. You may see, and hear, barges and/or trains going up and down the river hauling their loads. (The train crossings are over a mile away, so their horns can be heard, but most guests indicate they are not too intrusive. )

Absolutely LOVED this apartment!

My daughter and I were pleasantly surprised! This apartment was bigger and a lot nicer than what we were expecting! It was clean and the beds were so comfortable! We were out hiking all day and loved coming back here and putting our feet up to watch some TV and relax at night.

River views getaway

This stay provided river views and a quaint yet spacious opportunity for my partner and I. With nature opportunities essentially right outside the door, there was also an opportunity to commute a short distance into town-a great blend. A couple of items for consideration are the entry staircase requiring individuals to carry up and in luggage, coolers, etc., and also the space being one large room with only the bathroom offering a private space. Certainly items manageable for more agile individuals and those who don’t mind sharing bedding space. Otherwise, the space itself works well for the value. For follow up for the property owner, I recommend attention to some of the details. Placing a more personal touch of information within the welcome binder (recommendations, pictures, etc) and cleanliness of dishware prior to new visitors.

Mississippi River Getaway

My husband and I stayed in the studio apartment for a 3 night getaway and really enjoyed our time. The apartment is set up in a way that makes it feel spacious. It's the perfect spot for a couple or small family to relax, play games and explore the beauty of the area.

Family trip

We had a great stay. This was our second time to the property. We rented the house and studio appartment and had plenty of room for the grandparents, parents, and 3 children. The new firepit area was a nice addition.

Nice, airy apartment with good kitchen. All we heard were trees and the river. Close to the highway which made it an easy drive to Crescent and across the river to La Crosse.

Great stay!

Everything about the stay was great! Beautiful view from the house. House was very clean with all the amenities we needed and more. Home owners were super friendly and helpful as well. We were traveling for a fishing tournament and parking a boat/truck and plugging in to keep the batteries charged was no problem at all.

Perfect home away from home

Easy check in and well-designed apartment. Well stocked dishes and cookware with new/clean appliances and fixtures. Close enough to Winona (40min) and La Crosse (20min) and House on the Rock (2hrs) to be a perfect place to stay. Also, great sunrise veiws! (That don't shine in and wake you up either).

Our annual river visit.

Paula and Aaron are great host. We've stayed at their beautiful apartment home for 3 years now and it is just the right space for our weekend get away on the Mississippi River. Paula was very accommodating with our early check in. Highly recommend staying at their beautiful property.
