Quiet and restful. A great spot that was close enough to Decorah for dinner and shopping but far enough away that it was so peaceful. Great communication with owner!

Great lil getaway

We had a spring break getaway and we needed to disconnect. Having no cell service was the perfect answer! A great little tiny space. Hot tub was hot. The view was gorgeous. We will definitely be booking again!

Quiet get away

Luckily we read the reviews before we arrived so we were aware of there being another place next door. That being said it still felt private and the views were gorgeous. Sitting in the hot tub looking at the night sky was a highlight for sure!

Quaint and Cozy

The listing was fairly accurate. The home is super cute and in an easy to find location. One thing I did not care for was the lack of curtains, and the portable fans were not charged so it was a bit warm in the lofts. The hot tub was nice and private. It was a very relaxing stay for my husband and I on our anniversary.

Cozy and peaceful

Did a weekend away for our anniversary. Was great to Have breakfast on the deck, fire at night all in the setting of the river bank. The kitchen was great to make breakfast and a morning cup of coffee. We throughly enjoyed the screen door to enjoy the fresh air while we watched a movie in the living room area. Easy to get to and we’ll stocked with plenty of towels and pans do cook with.

Cozy stay in the tiny house

It was great! The listing was accurate and we expected the house next door but it was still a very private stay. We didn’t have service when we got there to open the Vrbo app to get the passcode to get inside, so we had to backtrack until we got service. Otherwise everything was great! Would recommend!

Anniversary relaxed and adventure stay

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay. We always wanted to try a tiny home, and loved it inside and out. Being right by the river was serene, with abundant wildlife, especially birds of prey. My only early hesitation was that in the pictures you didn’t think there was another residence next door, however after staying it was a none issue and still felt like it was private enough. There is a canoe/kayak rental nearby that was a huge plus for us! Rest and adventure all in one! Thank you 😊

Loved it! The only suggestions we have are to get a more comfortable couch and to put grippies on the stairs leading up to the bedroom (they were a little slippery while wearing socks). The whole place was very clean and well equipped. The scenery could not be beat!
