We love to stay here. Up on the bluff overlooking the Mississippi. One of our best times there this time! Sat at the fire with other people there and enjoyed the night! They have done some wonderful improvements since we were there last time.

It was a cute, quaint little place with a gorgeous view of the Mississippi. The room was clean and cozy. The beds were comfy and the room decor was very nice. It wasn't a real big room, but it was fine for the two of us. We would definitely stay there again.

Clean and tastefully decorated. Beautiful view with comfortable gliders to sit outside. Comfortable bed. Nice Fall decorating touches in the room. Minor suggestions: Hooks or someplace to hang jackets. Also, Shower gel and hand soap were both almost empty making it difficult to get some out of the containers. Excellent stay.

Beautiful and charming. It sits directly above a scenic overlook, so when you stay here you will have the view that all the cars are stopping at to take pictures of out your bedroom window. The view is absolutely incredible. The sunrise over the water, the red train below, the trees, it's gorgeous and a true mid-west Mississippi experience. The owner is super nice and they maintain this property very well. Clean, nice decor, attentive staff when needed. We will be back!

Lovely room clean and comfortable with an amazing view of the Mississippi. Check in was via text with a door code making it simple. Great space outside to sit and watch for eagles or just relax. Spectacular sunrise.

Spectacular views of Mississippi, bluffs and Guttenberg, as advertised. Great location for so many of the area must see sites and must visit small towns. Comfortable bed, spacious, clean, well-stocked room. Only suggestion is a bit more info on use of and supplies for the fire pits. We traveled in fall and had a perfect night for a fire but weren't sure since the couple pits were so close to other rooms that felt would've have bothered them. Also, really no starter / lighter supplies. Will definitely stay again on our annual fall visit to the area.

I should have checked if the room was on 1st or 2nd floor. My husband is disabled and climbing the stairs was very difficult for him. The room was very nice, beautiful view, nice area. Only issue my not checking if it was 1st or 2nd floor.

The view of the Mississippi River from our room was amazing! The keycode room entry and the ability to skip check-in and check-out made everything quick and convenient. The room was well equipped with a coffee maker, microwave, and a small dorm-style refrigerator, which was a nice bonus. Overall, it was a great stay!

Owners left code for door on email. We had room on top floor. Excellent view of river from our room plus deck outside our door. Lots of BBQ facilities there (wished we had brought food to grill!). Landscaping ( flowers) was fabulous. So beautiful and peaceful. We would absolutely stay here again if we are ever in the area again.

The check in was strange. It’s “no contact” so there is no staff on sight. We arrived at 7pm and the place was completely deserted, which was unnerving. We got into our room with a code for the door. The room was clean. Bed was a little uncomfortable and the bathroom is small but, the view was pretty and being the only ones at the hotel, we sat outside and played our guitars under the stars and enjoyed ourselves very much.

Beautiful property and well-maintained. We booked through Expedia and didn’t get the room that we thought we were so it was a little bit of tight quarters. Otherwise, everything was amazing and the views were stunning!!!
