Girls Cabin Weekend
We had a wonderful time at the Lions Downe cabin, beautiful and expansive views up and down the river, hot tub for relaxing conversation at sun down, huge kitchen and living areas for having meals and playing games. We hope to be back again!

Beautiful Location, Communicative Hosts, experienced some bug Issues.
Beautiful location with a gorgeous view of the river. The cabin has many nice amenities. They even left us a gift of local cider and wine! Kitchen was stocked with everything needed to cook your own meals during your stay. Fireplace was nice and cozy for the evenings. Hosts were communicative. Hot tub was not heating up one evening but hosts got back to us right away with suggestions on how to resolve the issue. We forgot an item at the cabin and the hosts were kind enough to mail it back to us no charge. The only reason I rated a 3 of 5 was due to an issue we experienced with one of the beds. A friend who stayed in one of the loft beds woke up with numerous bites all over her body. She found a bug that appeared to be a bed bug. We immediately reported it to the host and all guests checked their homes to see if it could have been brought in. Unfortunately, it appears to have originated from the cabin . Host advised they would have their pest control come out to investigate and address it. Upon request, they provided a 50% refund and apologized for the inconvenience. Had it not been for the bugs, would have rated 5 stars. Thanks!

Another Lovely Stay
Our same foursome and two dogs choose to visit again as we did the previous January. The cottage is perfect for a close getaway from the Twin Cities and makes for a relaxing winter break to read by the fire, hang out, play games and share meals.

Winter Escape
This was our fourth time staying at Lion Downe and it was excellent as always. This year, due to the unseasonably warm weather, we got to try out some of the amazing hiking trails in Red Wing. The log cabin is unique and that is exactly what we look for in a vacation rental. The hot tub views overlooking Lake Pepin are second to none. The cabin was clean and kitchen fully stocked for our fancy meal making. Communication with the owners is prompt and they are very helpful if needed.

Great place for a weekend
My college girlfriends and I meet up for a much needed reunion. The check-in process was easy and the cabin was clean. We enjoyed Maiden Rock Winery and Cidery and had lunch and did some shopping in Red Wing. The hot tub was a nice touch. Great place for a reunion or girls weekend.

Great Cabin!
We enjoyed our stay at the Lion Downe Cottage! The views are amazing and the vibes inside the cottage are warm and cozy. The hosts were excellent and very responsive. It is essentially just one large room, so definitely bring your ear plugs if you're a light sleeper!
