Absolutely loved the place. The pictures are spot on. It's super cozy and charming yet much bigger than you would think. All the rooms are decent sized and well decorated. Also, a great location only a short walk from all the restaurants and shopping. We will definitely add to our list of must go again.

This was the cutest, coziest cottage! It was perfect for the 4 of us. We used the grill and deck one night and the firepit another night. Very relaxing and convenient walking distance to all the cool places on Cody Road. We would definitely stay there again.

Quaint, cute and very clean and well appointed. Excellent view of the Mississippi River from various vantage points both inside and outside. Two en-suite bath rooms and a powder room. One glitch was that the entrance code that was provided was not accurate so we needed to contact the VRBO help line to obtain the correct entrance code. I do not know if that was an owner or VRBO issue, but hopefully that can be remedied in the future.

We always try to get away for a day or two around our birthdays. This was an absolutely adorable home with a great view. Although being on the river I think next time we will do it for my birthday so weather is warmer. The house is exactly as listed. Easy check in, fabulous spiral staircase, jetted tub comfy bed. The local restaurants are great, unfortunately the local grocery store is not. This place was really great we hope to come back soon.

The house was very cute and the family room was very cozy. Nice and clean and was very welcoming to our two small dogs with toys that they played with and a couple of beds they slept on. If you're up for hiking up a 45 degree incline there's a nice open park across the street to walk dogs or let your 9 year old run around. The only thing worth mentioning about the property is to access any of the sleeping areas you have to use the fairly narrow spiral staircase. It's super cool but my wife had a foot boot on due to an injury and it was a bit treacherous going up and down. Not a fault of the property though and it was clearly shown in the pics.
Overall a great stay that we would do again.
Thanks!

Nice place for family stay
Very cute place. Great views of river and lush green garden setting. Close to town and easy access to freeways. Train is close by but not too much of a bother. Screened in porch room was a great bonus space. Home was just as advertised.

Weekend Getaway
This was my second time here and my husband's first. We had a wonderfully cozy weekend. It was a rainy, chilly weekend. We took full advantage of the fireplace and played board games and just relaxed. We absolutely will be back!

Anniversary get away
We stayed at the cottage for a few nights with our three dogs, although the weather was not the greatest we had a wonderful time just hanging out, relaxing, and watching the eagles fly over the river. The cottage had everything we needed and more. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely place with us!

Cute and cozy stay with a nice view of the river! Good amenities, wonβt be disappointed. I will say that you must be aware it can be a little loud with passing trains but anywhere near the river you will have that.

Perfect place to stay if you love a great river view like we do. Halfway up the bluff, it's a lovely cottage in a lovely place. We'd go again without hesitation.

Cozy retreat!
This home is everything listed in the VRBO description. The wonderful surprise was the extra touches like the seasonal decor and the personalized welcome sign. It immediately made me feel welcomed as if I was coming home. Very comfortable, with multiple outdoor settings for viewing the river. The owner was very quick to respond to my questions. I will stay here again!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here for our anniversary! So many wonderful spaces in this house, and we just wanted to stay for as long as we could. The house is built into the side of hill so that every window faces the Mississippi River. We enjoyed the screened porch in the evenings and sitting outside with our coffee in the morning. Everything we could possible need was available to us. Kathryn (the host) was great to work with and always responded quickly (we had a little mischievous ground hog hanging around). I highly recommend this adorable cottage :)

Property was as described and beautifully decorated. Downtown was about a 3/4 mile hilly walk. Enjoyed the downtown area-eating, drinking and shopping. Kathryn provided a bed, treats and a food and water bowl for our dogs. She was also kind enough to mail me an item left behind. Screened in porch was great for enjoying the evening. We would definitely return to this property for another weekend trip.
