Harmony

"The hotel is in a small town not far from Decorah Iowa, and Lanesboro MN. I chose the hotel because of location to the local caves. Checkin experience was excellent. I had a nice room upgrade to a larger King room that had a kitchenette. I found the space to be very clean, although the hotel can use some updating. For a small town hotel, this was a good choice. There are a few attractions nearby, though not a lot."

The Nest: Beautiful Apartment Style Lodging In The Heart Of Downtown Decorah.

"The Nest was exactly what we wanted for Nordic Fest. Having reserved parking was a godsend. The apartment was clean and well appointed. All in all a great place to stay."

Secluded 1860 Stone House recently remodeled on the Upper Iowa River by Bluffton

10/10 Excellent

"Great historic place that has great charm."

Cedar Springs Greenhouse

10/10 Excellent

"The greenhouse was a quaint, perfect little getaway for my husband and I to celebrate our anniversary. The hosts thought of everything we could need for our stay, and even went out of their way to help me surprise my husband with a bottle of wine. They even provide some handy snacks for purchase if needed. A fierce hail storm rolled through during our stay, and that little greenhouse was able to withstand the storm! The included air conditioner worked well to keep the greenhouse comfortable during our entire stay. The futon bed was a good size for us (5'6" & 5'9") but if you're much taller then that, you may want to use the included air mattress. We barely fit in the sleeping space, but it added to the fun of staying in the greenhouse :) It was really cool to look out into the rock quarry, and to hear all of the sounds of nature surrounding us. Even though the greenhouse is on a lived on property, we felt secluded in our own private area. We greatly enjoyed our stay, and look forward to spending future anniversaries there again!"

The Cowboy Cabin, secluded and peaceful, only 5 min from town & sleeps 4.

10/10 Excellent

"It was great! Excellent communication from host on what to expect. Everything was exactly as pictured. Secluded, quiet, nice area. It was the perfect getaway with our pets. "
