About this house rental
Nestled in the bluffs of Winona, Minnesota, The Driftless Retreat is a cottage in the valley just one mile from Saint Mary's University and a 10 minute drive to downtown Winona and the Mississippi River.
The cottage features a private front and back entrance, large backyard, and woodburning fireplace.
Our hope is that The Driftless Retreat is just that, a retreat away from the every day. We believe that every detail matters and take pride in making your time here relaxing and enjoyable.
The space
The Driftless Retreat is located along Gilmore Valley Road. There is a steep shared driveway and the cottage is first home on the left. The space includes two bedrooms with a king and queen bed. There's also a pull out bed in the sofa in the living room. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and a coffee and tea bar along with typical cooking items. The bathroom has a rain shower and hand held shower head. We supply all natural Public Goods shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, and hand soap. There is a medicine cabinet and storage closet in the bathroom where you will find towels for each guest. A washer and dryer is available for guest use at no cost. There are two televisions on the property in the living room and master bedroom with access to Netflix. Finally, there's a beautiful wood burning fire place in the living room for small fires on cold evenings.
Guest access
We will send you a code before check-in that will get you in the front and back door.
Other things to note
Be careful as you leave the driveway as it is steep.
This property uses a surveillance device (smart doorbell) and is only used for security purposes.

The cottage was clean, serene and charming, well stocked with lots of natural light and great view from living room. The beds were VERY comfortable as was the rest of the furniture. It was quiet and peaceful, just a short drive to great restaurants (Nosh) and hikes. One recommendation is to move the microwave from cabinet to a shelf near sink or by kitchen window. We look forward to our next visit.

The house is was such a nice place to stay. Comfortable furniture and well decorated and laid out. Stocked with pretty much everything that you could need and more. Plus they left me some fresh eggs!

This was the perfect house for a little getaway from the kiddos. The sauna was a lovely touch to help with the relaxation of the weekend. If your even in Winona, I highly recommend staying here!

We spend quite a bit of time traveling to and from Winona and have been hoping to find a place to stay that is not a hotel. Driftless Retreat did not disappoint! It was so clean and inviting. The owners spent quite a bit of time making the home comfortable and zen-like. Check-in and communication was flawless. It was the PERFECT choice for us and we will most definitely be adding this to our rotation of places to stay when we travel. Highly recommend!

We were in town for just a weekend for the boats and bluegrass music festival in Winona, this was the perfect spot for my family and my friends family to come after a long day of dancing down by the river! The house was so clean and cozy and truly felt like home! We will certainly be back!
