About this apartment rental
Welcome to Pepin Guest Haus! Our cozy yet modern and fresh loft has beautiful views of Lake Pepin and is walking distance to everything in town. Pepin, Wisconsin is the hidden gem of the Midwest. As your hosts, we aim to share this treasure with you.
The stretch of Wisconsin Highway 35 running along Lake Pepin has been called the prettiest drive in America by the Huffington Post. American Poet, journalist, and editor of the New York Evening Post stated that “Lake Pepin ought to be visited by every poet and painter in the land.” Beyond the breathtaking views of river bluffs and Lake Pepin, and the authentically nautical environment, the town of Pepin itself boasts great food, gift shopping, boating/ice fishing, and the perfect setting to create some of your best memories.
Pepin is home to the well known, beautiful Italian winery, Villa Bellezza, from which Pepin Guest Haus is conveniently located across the street. Additionally, the town has a variety of restaurants including the famous Harbor View Cafe, iconic lakeside boat-up restaurant The Pickle Factory, and the fun-in-the-sun Garden Pub & Grille. For breakfast be sure to visit the Homemade Cafe and if you like Barbeque don't miss Smoke-In D's pop up stand - all located walking distance from Pepin Guest Haus. Pepin is also the original home of American author Laura Ingalls Wilder and has a museum dedicated to her and the early settlers of the area. Gift shops and metal art are plentiful in town as well.
Pepin itself can delight for a full weekend but if you'd like to explore the area by car or motorcycle the towns of Bay City, Maiden Rock, Stockholm, Nelson, Alma, Fountain City, Wabasha, Lake City, Frontenac, and Red Wing are all within 45 minutes or less from Pepin Guest Haus. If you enjoy wine tasting Pepin Guest Haus is a perfect home base as you embark upon the Great River Road Wine Trail!
For the comfort of our guests - whether it's a wedding at the winery or nearby country venue, a weekend with your beloved or friends, or you just need to get away and relax - we've made sure Pepin Guest Haus is nicely appointed. During your stay you'll enjoy the following within the suite:

We absolutely loved our stay at Katherine's loft in Pepin! Every detail was cared for, from the instructions received before arrival to all the amenities that were carefully placed and labeled throughout the apartment. Everything was so perfect and comfortable. We loved the deck overlooking Lake Pepin. Filtered water in the fridge, shower bombs in the bathroom, makeup face cloths, plenty of outlets, and again - everything labeled!!! We could see and feel the love that went into this place and we'll definitely come back!!!

Perfect place for night after your wedding at the winery! I rented this for my daughter and her new husband, they loved it. Hostess made them feel super special with her extra touches.

This little slice of heaven was a perfect for our overnight stay! The host thought of EVERYTHING! Cordless phone chargers for android and Apple… eucalyptus tabs to put in your shower… the deck, fireplace and outdoor patio with fire pit. Honestly the best VRBO experience we have had with not a single disappointment or “I wish they had…”

Great location if attending a wedding at the vineyard. You can walk there if you want. Only downside would be the trains.

Katherine’s property was a dream. If you are attending an event at Villa Bellezza, you have to stay here.

It was the perfect spot for a girls' getaway! It had everything we needed. It was clean, cozy, and everything was in good working order. The host was friendly and accessible if needed. Be aware that there isn't an oven, although there is a grill, microwave, and hot plate/singular cooktop you can use to make food. I overlooked that part in the property description, so kinda my fault there. We had a great time and would definitely recommend or even stay again!

Host was very welcoming… just enough to make us comfortable. The place was tastefully decorated and spotless. Plus a whole bunch of personal touches. Everything we needed for a night away and a visit to the lovely winery across street. June is gorgeous in this area and Stockholm, 5 miles away, is very quaint too.

Property was immaculate and had a lot of little extras that made it unique and memorable.

Perfect. Away from the rat race but near great dining and one of the most beautiful, natural settings in the United States. The suite, itself, is floored and walled and ceilinged with beautiful, hard woods and an excellent kitchenette, fireplace and a private deck where you can gaze out at Lake Pepin and enjoy country air.

Katherine's Pepin Guest Haus was everything we could have wanted for our weekend on Lake Pepin. It was so beautifully decorated for the holidays and extra cozy with the fireplace and toasty floors. Katherine sent us some weekend events so there was so much to do even though it's technically the off-season. We can't wait to come back!
5.0
First class property and first class accommodations. Frankly, if you do not stay here at least once you have not experienced what first class is all about. Don’t think about it-just DO IT!! Thanks Kathrine.

A beautiful place for a couples getaway. Private, well-furnished space with a fireplace and your own outdoor patio with firepit. In a quiet neighborhood but close enough to walk to town.
Two things to know and plan for when visiting here:
1: There is no stovetop or oven - other than the microwave and a toaster you cannot cook. This was fine for us, we planned picnics and meals out.
2: If you're visiting midweek off-season, many restaurants in town do not open until Thursday.

The place was so cute and clean. They had all that you needed on a short stay with everything marked well. The nautical theme was so perfect for being on Lake Pepin. The place was walking distant to the key destination places in Pepin. Great stay!
