Really great rental option for family in Dubuque

We had a great time at this property when in town with our teens. The kids loved the lower level for watching TV and video games and also the really nice backyard. Overall, a perfect spot!

Clean house & comfy couch

We spent most of our time at the house during our stay in town. We really appreciated how clean it was and how accessible the host was for any questions. Also loved the big selection couch to kick back and relax. If the weather would have been better we could have taken advantage of the backyard porch!

Super!

Everything inside and outside of this house is super clean and neat! Everything inside the house is brand new and done in great taste. The furniture along with the beds were very comfortable! So much better than staying in a hotel / motel. Easy to find and close to everything that's needed for sightseeing!

Beautiful home

My family traveled from Atlanta to Dubuque to spend Christmas with extended family. The home was newly updated, spacious, and had a fully equipped kitchen. We also loved its central location in Dubuque. The owners had it beautifully decorated for Christmas, which was a nice, caring touch. We loved it and would stay again.

Great Stay, Excellent House

This was one of the cleanest, most well stocked and thoughtfully organized rentals we have enjoyed. It is even better in person than the pictures. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked with everything easily accessible. Cathy was very responsive and easy to get a hold of for any questions. We had four adults and two small children and had plenty of room to spread out. As a bonus, the check out procedures were crystal clear and reasonable! Would definitely stay here again if we are back in the area.

Wonderful, Spotless, Great Location!

My sister and I were in Dubuque for a family reunion. We both grew up near Cathy’s VRBO so we wanted to stay on the West end. The house is spotless, on a quiet street, beautiful inside and has everything you need and even a few things we didn’t realize we needed. Cathy had the perfect size cooler and ice for us to use for the reunion which was a lifesaver! The house is really big, we only used 2 bedrooms and didn’t use downstairs at all but we were very comfortable. The internet worked great, my work laptop had no issues connecting. The house is convenient to everything! Thank you for a great place to stay! I’ll definitely be back!

The Best stay Ever!

This was THE BEST VRBO EVER!!!!! When I tell you this place was immaculate! It was sooo clean, beautifully decorated, and felt like home! The host supplied thorough instructions for everything! The neighborhood was safe and there was a grocery store in walking distance! All the furniture was comfortable and durable! The host supplied so many wonderful amenities that I wasn't expecting. The beds were so comfortable! Parking was awesome! The kitchen and appliances were A+! The outside back, patio furniture, and grills were so great! All the pots, pans, dishes and cutlery were provided. There was even seasonings and condiments that weren't expected. Thank you, Ms. Cathy, for sharing your home with me and my family. We enjoyed EVERYTHING! Game night has never been better! A lot of fun, laughter, Karaoke and healthy competition took place! :) 100% recommend to anyone!

The way it should be done

This home was by far the best VRBO we have ever stayed at. The home was clean, spacious, attractively, decorated, well stocked, and in a quiet convenient location. The kitchen and bathrooms were modern and recently renovated. There was plenty of seating in the kitchen and dining room for a family. The kitchen had lots of cooking tools to be able to make anything you desired. The bathrooms had plenty of towels, and the cabinets were stocked with all of the things that you might have forgotten from toothpaste to shaving supplies to shampoo. The living room sofa was comfortable, and the television was sized appropriately for the space making it a great area to hang out in. The back patio had functional and well maintained furniture and the yard itself was private and sizable. The garage had space for two cars and even had an extra refrigerator if you were needing it for extra room for food or drink. The lower level had additional sofa and table seating as well as a small kitchenette. There was not one negative about this home. And the hosts were great with communication and the instructions for check-in and checkout were very clear.

The house was very nice - updated and clean . The kitchen was FULLY stocked ( even had all kinds of coffee brewing systems!). Backyard was big and great for entertaining . A few stairs entering the house but handrails were properly placed for safety. Host responded quickly to our needs ( locked ourselves out , our error not hers.) One other thing to share- 2 nd full bath is located in the basement but wasn’t a problem for us as the upstairs bathroom is HUGE. I am extremely picky where I stay, everything about this place and stay was great/ will definitely stay here again .

This home is in a perfect location, is exceptionally clean, beautiful updated, and has all the amenities you need. From the fully stocked kitchen to the beautiful backyard, with the best patio we have seen in a long time: watch football from the patio, while you grill and then turn on the fire pit!! Great property! Thanks Cathy!

What a beautiful home! While the weather was too hot/rainy for us to fully enjoy the backyard, we were able to have coffee on the patio on morning. Plenty of chairs for everyone. Nice furniture inside the house as well. Fully stocked kitchen. Basement space was great for board games at night. Would definitely stay again.

Amazing Property

Our extended family stayed here while returning to Dubuque for a family reunion. This is by far the most clean, remodeled, stocked Vrbo home we have ever stayed in! It really will blow your mind, the house is so incredibly nice and comfortable, we felt completely at home. Cathy was wonderful about making sure we had everything we needed, she even checked on us after a really bad storm! I hope this property is always available when we return because this is by far our number one choice to stay! ❤️
