Hokah is a beautiful scenic 9 mile drive from downtown La Crosse, along the river, marsh, farmland and bluffs to our quaint upstairs apartment in a 100 yr old building on Main Street.
Enjoy an excellent birds eye view to watch the steady stream of passers by. The road noise can be constant, so light sleepers should take to the back bedroom. Both bedrooms have black out shades and large closets.

Very clean and accommodating place. The seating was comfortable, kitchen well stocked and slept great on the bed. Nice place to stay while exploring both sides of the river.
Very happy with all aspects of our stay. Everything went smoothly from check in to check out. Lovely inside and close to our reunion in Brownsville. Loved our stay and the stay in the small town where my moms family grew up

The property was very well decorated. Beautiful space and layout. Had all the things we needed. The overall area was not the best but the inside was great!
we came to stay at this home for my best friends birthday weekend. she goes to school in lacrosse and we wanted her to have a place that wasn’t focused on school. we had a wonderful time. we were able to make dinners and enjoy the local bars across the street. even being on crutches once up in the apartment it was easy to get around. thank you for a wonderful stay
This is the best stocked place we've ever stayed in. I wanted to cook for my UWL student who was sick of dining hall food and it had everything I needed! That made the stay so much more enjoyable. Plenty of room for a comfortable stay. Erin was very responsive and a great host. We checked out the coffee shop across the street and the food was delicious. Como falls was a short walk and a nice quite place to sit. We'll definitely be back!
Charming two bedroom apartment on the second floor of a historical building. A very cozy space to cook, share meals, play games, read, and watch movies. Large bathroom with a great shower. Hokah is a no frills small town just fifteen minutes from LaCrosse.
Cute and cozy. Very clean. This home had everything we needed. I would suggest maybe a bench at top of stair to sit and take shoes off and on. Very comfortable.
Our primary objectives for VRBO:
Clean, honest about place, easy to communicate with host, good beds, basic needs provided for. We got this and more.
Soft bedding, extra blankets, fans due to street noise to drown it out, location on hwy 16 perfect. Didn’t use the kitchen, but it had anything needed.
We were so happy to find this hidden gem! The listing is exactly as described. The property was very clean, quaint, and unique. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was fully stocked to cook supper, and we had plenty of space for a family of five. One small downside is that we ran out of hot water after two showers in a row, so we made sure to space them out. We enjoyed watching the little downtown of Hokah's happenings as it snowed outside. We had yummy smoothies at the coffee shop across the road, and my husband loved finding the nearby surplus store. We would definitely stay again!
My wife, friends and I were looking for a relaxing environment to unwind. This location was exactly that and more! We went to Como Falls which was a 1 minute drive away and it was a very serene and calm environment. The apartment is well kept and clean. Both bedrooms were comfortable. There was a lot of space. A nice kitchen, dining and living room. The bathroom was very clean. Thank you so much!
We loved having a place for us to stay near La Crosse, WI. Our family enjoyed having a kitchen, a living room, and a place to eat and play board games during our stay.
Beautiful floors and interior furnishings with new windows! Perfect for relaxing and recuperating from a day of adventures. Shower has some wonderful water pressure too!
