GRAM'S HAUS

BetsyRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Our first AirBnB stay at another location had to unexpectedly cancel three days before our stay due to an unavoidable, and unplanned emergency at the home. AirBnB helped us find a second stay, and we had already earmarked this place for a future stay. Kim was immediately responsive to both AirBnB and us about getting her home booked, and she even went out of her way to get a Pack & Play out of her storage for our infant grandchild when she learned we would have an infant with us. Her home is immaculate, & she was highly responsive when we communicated back & forth to help gather details as everything was so last-minute due to our circumstances. We can’t wait to go back for another stay!

Victorian Home one block from Mississippi River!

JeffRating, 5 stars4 days ago

We would definitely recommend this place and would stay here again if we are ever back in the area. The property and house were more than we expected - immaculate and inviting. We enjoyed sitting outdoors - quiet and relaxing. The house is close to the river so we could stroll along the walkway. Locally we saw the Lockmaster House Museum, the Lock and Dam, had a meal at the local brewery, and enjoyed wine tasting at Promiseland Winery. We also drove up to Pike's Peak Park to do a little hiking. Thank you, Kristin for being a gracious host.

Beautiful riverfront family retreat

JonahRating, 5 stars56 months ago

This place was perfect for getting a large group of friends together. There was a bed and dining room seating for everyone and we got plenty of use out of the firepit and even the water slide even though it was chilly. The location is great, right on the Mississippi and only an hour from Dubuque and Prairie Du Chen. Cassville, just a short jaunt down the road, has all the basics you could need and the state park nearby has awesome views from the bluffs. On top of all that Jennifer was a wonderful host. She was quick to respond, accommodating, and has bunches of recommendations for the area. Overall it was great stay.

The vibrant red home features multiple large windows, allowing natural light to enhance the interior spaces. A spacious deck extends from the house, bordered by trees and rocky terrain, creating a picturesque setting amidst the lush surroundings.

#StayBluffside: Mississippi River Oasis-> McGregor

MichaelRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Brandi's place is exceptional. Her home has been well-loved and is very well maintained. Everything is clean. The couch, the bed, the sheets, the bathroom, the kitchen. One of the drawbacks to airbnb's is the lack of cleanliness that is becoming the norm. Sheets, chairs, couches retain body odors. Not so with Brandi's place. It smells clean and fresh. I came to hike, and there is great hiking close by. Pike's Peak is walking distance, a bit more than a mile, but the exceptional experience is Effigy Mounds National Monument. It's a quick 10 minute drive. It is an incredibly beautiful park with wonderful vistas of the great Mississippi. A genuinely sacred place.
