The house was great and what a lovely back yard. The only thing that would have made it even better is if you actually had an easy way to get into the river.

This is a unique, historical property with a great vibe. Clean and comfortable, with many little extras provided, the hosts go out of their way to make sure you’re taken care of. The farm fresh eggs were a wonderful surprise! Excellent communication with owners and an overall great stay. Would definitely stay again when in the area.

Charming Barn

Our family of 4 enjoyed our stay in this unique remodeled barn. The upstairs bedrooms were very comfortable, and the family room was quite spacious. Additionally, the back yard was beautiful. Christine was an excellent host and we had everything we needed. One piece of constructive feedback- the railing on the deck is not sufficient to prevent small children from falling, so we needed to keep a close eye.

Quick trip and a road win against Luther College

This property is a gem. The location was perfect for our trip, as it's only 10 minutes to the campus and about 13 minutes into Decorah. The backyard is amazing - we watched as a bald eagle perched next to the stream. The interior is so unique and comfortable. Although we have NO reason to come back to this part of Iowa, we just might make another trip to stay in this barn home again.

Rustic Iowa Charm

Perfect weekend getaway. Plenty of space and great family room to visit with friends. Beautiful land to enjoy watching the deer stroll through or warming up at the fire pit. Super friendly owners available to recommend places to see or answer any questions. Definitely will be back.
