We had a wonderful weekend here on a couples' trip with 6 people! It was the perfect home base for wandering Decorah and paddling the Upper Iowa River.

Back again for my second week this year and things were just as excellent as my previous stay. If you are ever going to be in Decorah over Halloween, you can’t beat the Phelps Park loop for trick or treating, my kids had a blast. This place is highly recommended by my family and I.

It a fantastic location, friendly neighborhood and just a 8 minute walk to downtown. The large front porch was great for our family to congrate on and play games. I would most definitely stay here again. Thank you to the owners for being responsive when we had questions.
