We had a wonderful two night stay at the river house. Communication was great. The house is just as advertised, clean, pretty a great location, and fully stocked for anything we would need. We definitely look forward to coming back for another visit.

This place was amazing and we would definitely stay again! The property is very clean and you can't beat the view! We loved hanging out on the back patio in front of the fire table watching all of the boats go by on the river.

Wonderful little stay on the Mississippi River. The most AMAZING sunrises to wake up to ... as well as beautiful moon rises over the river. We will definitely be back! Fun little bars in town if you wish to step out ... had a blast. Ran down to the meat market across the border in IA, and that was a hoot! Very CLEAN and had every thing you need in a kitchen to cook anything. Wonderful host!

My girlfriend and I chose this rental for a weekend get away to unwind and decompress from our jobs. This place was exactly what we needed. Not too big and not too small. Located right on the water with it’s own boat dock making this a perfect place if you plan boat/water activities. The morning sunrises here are perfect!

This property is so cute! And the views are beautiful! The sunrise is worth getting up for! The property owner is great with communication and very nice. The fishing off the dock was great and will for sure be back again!

This is a perfect spot for 2 people to enjoy quiet time with the gorgeous river views. We loved sitting outside on the patio and enjoying view, watching the barges on the river and fishing from the dock. Nearby La Crosse Wisconsin had hiking and shopping and restaurants as well as the local restaurants in Brownsville. Would recommend for a couple getaway for sure.

We stayed the weekend to visit our son who goes to college locally. What a great little spot right on the Mississippi River. Beautiful sunrises that illuminated the entire cottage. Super clean and everything we may have needed was provided.
