Nice tiny home

The tiny home was nice and easy to get too. It was clean for the most part. There was a lot of dog hair. Beside that little discrepancy my wife and I had a great time!

Just as advertised!

We had a great night away in the tiny house. A couple of tight fits if you’re over 6 feet tall, but if you don’t see that coming with a tiny home, well, that’s on you. Great experience!

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.

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!

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!

Great stay

Lovely tiny house, there was another cabin on the same lot not shown in pictures. No curtains on River side for privacy. Hot tub jets worked on one side only. Very quit and serene. Would definitely stay again!

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 😊

It was nice to get away from home

It was a nice getaway location but not exactly what we were expecting. Better picture or description could have told us that another cottage is directly next door. Was looking for seclusion and peace and didn’t exactly get that. Really fun to stay in a tiny house though!

Cute place

Very nice place! Was very clean and had everything you would need and more. The only downfall was that we had arrived and never got any information regarding check in. We had no phone service so it was nice to enjoy a no phone stay. We did have to drive to the next town in order to contact the property manager to get information regarding check in. Overall it was very nice and relaxing.

Lovely getaway

Adorable tiny home right on the river. We enjoyed the hot tub and having a fire every night. Tiny home was clean and as advertised. Loved watching the wildlife. Lots of bunnies, deer, and heard owls and coyotes. Saw and heard many fish jumping in the river too. It's not the most secluded spot so to another rental nextdoor and the campground down the road but we still had plenty of privacy. So relaxing!
