Welcome to Pepin Guest Haus! Unwind at our cozy yet modern loft above the garage with beautiful views of Lake Pepin and in walking distance to virtually everything in town. It is a block away from Villa Bellezza Winery.
Pepin Guest Haus is nicely appointed with everything you need for a relaxing trip- king bed, two twin rollaway beds, kitchenette, shower, living area with sofa and TV, and deck with seating area and grill. Enjoy our newly added sauna as well (waiver required)!
Please note: Since we are near Lake Pepin (you can view it from the deck), we are also near train tracks. Trains come at an undetermined schedule. Thankfully we are in a "no train horn" zone but they do rumble. While we love the trains and their nostalgia, this is not for everyone.
Please note: There are 15 steps to access the Pepin Guest Haus, which is located in a private and separate building from the main house (our residence) above the garage. We have a personal garage door opener/security camera that guests will walk by on the right side of the garage.

Perfect location for a wedding at the winery. The Guest Haus was lovely - stocked with everything we could possibly need, immaculate, and beautifully decorated. Great communication from the host. Highly recommend!!!
This was a picture perfect space that had all the essentials; pays to look in the drawers to get your baring and find toiletries and amenities. The furnishings were comfortable and appealing. The host went out of the way to be accommodating and available for communication. We enjoyed coffee on the deck in the morning; and a walk to the winery for wine tasting. Will definitely look to revisit when in the area.

Thank you, Charles, for sharing your experience in our apartment. I’m glad the essentials, comfortable furnishings, and deck coffee moments added to your stay, and it’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the nearby winery. Looking forward to hosting you again whenever you’re back in the area!
This place was perfect for a couples getaway. So cute and cozy with many thoughtful touches. The pictures are accurate but it’s even better in person. Very comfortable spot and we loved it!
Clean, convenient, quaint. The train thing is something. The “occasional” train is sometimes 3 an hour, but not every hour. Some trains when they come by shake the unit. No blowing of the train horns. The shower head is just awful. Easy fix. When someone opens the garage door you will notice that. (The unit is above the garage) I’m 6’4” and if you are taller then that you will have to duck in the bedroom. Everything else was great.

Very comfortable beds. Clean and equipped with everything you need. Lovely environment. Great deck to sit and listen to the birds and with a view of the lake.
Pristine clean! Many thoughtful touches and details added to the charm of the place. I would definitely stay here again! The colors in the fall would be magnificent!
