We all say that this has been the best house yet! Plenty of room, gorgeously decorated house. We had everything we needed. Host was fantastic. We also loved the area and Dubuque. So quaint! This is a ten star house, highly recommended!

My family all thanked me for finding such a comfortable place for our weekend gathering. We espescially enjoyed visiting on the screened porch/patio after dinner.

This 1886 house on top of bluff is super cool. The double parlor is major highlight. I'd love to know more about the history of this house. If walking to the millwork district, use the stairway near 11th street as it's equally interesting with great views. If driving, I'd avoid Dell Street because it's so steep. Two nights was not enough time for us to explore Dubuque. I'd like to return to Dubuque and this cool property in the future.

We enjoyed our stay at this well-kept clean attractive historic house with ample modern conveniences. There was plenty of room for the seven guests, including four bedrooms, chatting on the side porch, some watching the Olympics on TV and a great ample dining room table. We would easily recommend this house to others as well as the owners/hosts who were prompt in communication.

The house is very clean and well decorated. It has many large bedrooms and plenty of space for a group of people. The kitchen is well appointed with two ovens and coffee makers. We had everything we needed to do a little baking and cooking. The dining table is great for games and eating and the living room is nice for TV time. We loved that it has central AC in the hot weather. It is also walkable to the farmer's market, library, stores, restaurants, winery, bars, and the Fenelon elevator! The hot tub is very nice at night, even in the heat and they put towels by the door. The porches are lovely to sit and chat or read. The electronic entry is great for a big group that doesn't want to always be together. We received a thorough email about everything we would possibly need to know before we got there. They thought of everything!

We had a wonder stay at the Highland House! Beautifully mantained and so much space for our family of six. Large bedrooms and gathering areas inside and out. Plus, a hot tub! Very clean and had all the essentials. Would recommend!

This was my families first time in Dubuque and this house was beautiful! It was very clean and spacious. We loved the covered patio. It was great to sit in there and be able to watch the kids play, at the same time. The only thing that caught us by surprise was that people could park along the road, right by the house. At one time, a car pulled up right next to the house, the kids were playing in the grass, and it just made us wonder what was going on. But then we realized that a lot of people park along that road and it’s nothing to worry about. Other than that, we loved the hot tub and even used the bbq and had a fun family bbq. The beds were very comfortable and spacious. If you looked closely, you can see the Mississippi River from the house.

This is the second time we have stayed there. At Christmas we appreciated the beauty of the house. This time we appreciated the wide porches, beautiful view and wonderful gardens. We have a large family and there always seems to be enough room for everyone.

We had a fantastic time in Dubuque. The home was fantastic and charming. The host was easily available and my guests and I had a relaxing weekend. Lots of extra rooms in the home and really great windows and views. Mid spring was a great choice to visit.

This is a beautiful historic home with modern conveniences in a classic setting. All rooms, including 4 bedrooms are spacious and nicely appointed. Though house is on a hill, access from driveway requires no steps. In addition to the 4 upstairs bedrooms, there is a sleeper sofa in one of the 3 sitting areas downstairs in case anyone does not want to try either of the two sets of stairs. Better weather would have found this small group of senior friends enjoying the views from one of the 3 porches--Maybe next time! Thick towels were abundant, as were throws to wrap up in. Location was close to just about everything in the downtown area. Tom the host was easy to reach and very responsive. We all enjoyed our stay and recommend this property without hesitation.

I can’t say enough good things about this property and its host. It’s warm and cozy, but huge. We loved the wood burning fireplace and used the very well stocked kitchen to prepare a Thanksgiving dinner. The house has a great location for everything in downtown Dubuque and is a short drive to Galena, IL. The views from the front porch are fantastic. It’s not just a great house, the host has also thought through all the nice-to-have things that some short-term rentals do not. They have tons of towels and there are comfortable throw blankets in all the closets, not that you need them. We didn’t use the hot tub, but my teenage kids did and loved being able to escape from the parents. They also loved that there were smart TV's in every bedroom. I highly, highly recommend this place and hope to stay there again.

The old charm of this house is absolutely amazing. Tom sent wonderful instructions on accessing the property so we had no issues at all. We had an evening when all of the family from muliple states were able to gather and reconnect and this house was the perfect place for what we needed. Next Dubuque family event we will definitely look to see if Tom's place is available!

Myself and siblings gathered for a comfortable, sit-around weekend and that is exactly what we had. This property is beautiful! The neighborhood is great and the view from the front porch is outstanding! The house was so well supplied, beautiful towels, and a very easy checkout. I would love to stay here again!

My friends and I stayed at this property for two nights to enjoy March Madness at the Q Casino and to do a little exploring in downtown Dubuque. The location is fantastic, just a mile or two from most everything we wanted to do in Dbq. The property was very clean and well maintained. The amenities were great. A cup of coffee in the hot tub each morning was just what the doctor ordered after being out late the night before. The owners were very accommodating and responsive. Overall a great stay and a place we plan to book again next year.

Our family, which consisted of us and our 3 children and their young families, stayed here while attending our extended family Christmas in Dubuque. What a beautiful place! It was very well equipped with everything we needed! Plenty of room to spread out, and plenty of room to all be together. We have rented several places in the area and this was by far our favorite!!! We hope that we can stay again soon!!

Wow, this place was the best! We stayed at the Highland House for 4 nights the week after Christmas while visiting family in the area. The house is beautiful, comfortable, and the perfect size for our extended family with 4 bedrooms and a pullout sleeper sofa in one of the parlors. But most importantly, the owners went above and beyond equipping the house with everything we needed during our stay AND to top it all off, it was decorated for Christmas! I can’t think of a single bad thing to say, just perfect. We loved it! Will definitely be booking again in the future.

This was a beautiful old house within walking distance to downtown Dubuque. This was a perfect place to stay with our extended family. Loved the room layout, as each bedroom was away from the others. Amazing family room area with an easy to use pellet stove. It added to the charm of the property. Big front porch and screened in porch that would be perfect if it wouldn't have been below zero outside. Fully stocked kitchen allowed us to cook meals inhouse. Owners gave great recommendations for restaurant options. Please was clean and well taken care of for a 100 year old home. We easily slept 9 people.
