Perfect Location

I was in town for a meeting at the University of Dubuque with my daughter and her grandfather. The house is adorable and was the perfect place for us during our visit to Dubuque. The home itself was very clean with plenty of room for the 3 of us and we appreciated the complimentary coffee and water. The location was perfect for being able to get for the university quickly as well as to easily get downtown or to the Mines of Spain. My daughter loved being able to walk to the park. I will definitely stay here again the next time I am in town.

Visit for UD Homecoming

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It is a cute, quaint, clean home. Just the right amount of space for 4 adults. Perfect location, very close to UD. Everything was as it was described in the listing and the host was very responsive. I did not receive the email with the check in information and he responded within minutes when I sent a message asking for it.

A perfect spot to easily get in and out of Dubuque as well as easy to get to the “downtown” area. The hosts were great communicators. We’d definitely stay there again.

Nice, Cozy, Clean and Conveniently Located

The house was perfect for our needs. We really liked how close it is to downtown while still in a nice, grassy neighborhood. The house was clean and roomy enough for the two of us. We visited area sites in Dubuque and surrounding towns. The Mississippi River Museum and Aquarium were wonderful, along with the Arboretum, Elevator Co., and the Eagle Point Park. We also went to St. Luke’s United Methodist Church to view the Tiffany stained glass windows, which are amazing. Truly enjoyed the Brazen Open Kitchen Restaurant downtown. We will recommend Dubuque to our kids, to bring their two young children, for the wonderful things to see and do. And, will recommend this house.
