Exceptional property. Super hosts.

Better than expected

We really enjoyed our stay! Thanks, Dan!

Good stay. We were surprised that it was right in town.

We had a wonderful time. The town is lovely.

The Shady Haven Tiny Cabin 1, was exactly that. She sat in the shade with a perfect view of the river. Inside was just as cute as could be with a FULL SIZE shower. She was a comfortable little place for us to get away and relax for a couple of days.

This was our first tiny home experience! I (being mom) stayed here for three nights with my three teenagers (16, 15, 14 yrs old) for our annual mom and kid trip. We brought one large suitcase and utilized that as our dresser which fit very nicely into the storage under the stairs. I brought condiments that I knew can be priced more in rural area grocery stores and purchased our main meal items at the in town grocery store (which is about a mile walk from the cabin). There was a binder full of information regarding the home and town. We caught Gar, Bass, and Pike right off the stairs from the cabin. Caution...if you cast right off the stairs to the middle about 30-50 yds, you're going to lose your sinking lures...but don't worry, a 30 some drive minute drive brings you to Walmart and Dick's in Dubuque to replenish what you lost! We are amateur fishers! The beach with chairs/umbrella made for amazing mornings and evenings watching the barges and pelicans. All in all, this tiny home was absolutely everything I could have asked for to create amazing memories with my growing children. I felt safe and secure for my children/self, belongings and with Iowa weather. It was clean, fresh and beautiful. We absolutely hope to come back again and I would even like to take a few days alone to decompress here. This town and site are beautiful beyond measure. Great site and host!

My family (2 adults, 2 kids ages 12 and 14) had a great time at Dan’s place - we stayed 4 nights. The tiny house is so cute and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay (really appreciated the AC on the 90 degree days we were there!) We rented the pontoon boat for one great day on the river- spent the whole day- and also spent some time checking out the Bellevue state park and went tubing in Maquoketa. Dan is an excellent host and takes wonderful care of this place. We’ll be back!
