Welcome! The cabin was built in the mid 1850s as a parochial school. In 1897 it was taken down and rebuilt into a home that was lived in till the early 1980s. In 2007 we took it apart and moved it down to the farm.

Welcome to Trout River Log Cabin, a rustic 19th century Norwegian-built log house nestled in the rolling hills of Northeast Iowa, just seven miles from downtown Decorah, or three from TG Brewing. The cabin is open seasonally from April to October. Our family farm with its many acres of perennial grass fields, timber, and meandering Trout River is absolutely gorgeous. And while you're at it be sure to check out our other overnight stay, Decorah House, located five blocks from downtown Decorah.

The cabin was gorgeous and we enjoyed our stay. Walking to the river to fly fish was great and there are a lot of trout! It is about a 15 minute walk and the walk back is all up hill, good exercise and through the woods which provides nice shade during this hike. I am…
