About the host

Hosted by Linda Kobliska

Host profile image
We have lived in the Alta Vista area all of our lives and welcome you to enjoy our slice of northeast Iowa. We operate two guesthouses in Alta Vista, one in Nashua on a small lake, one in New Hampton, as well as other, more traditional rental properties.

Why they chose this property

This house was my mother's and we wanted to keep it in the family. It was always well maintained and offers a homey, comfortable, very reasonably priced stay.

What makes this property unique

With a second guesthouse directly across the street from Grandma Z's, we have many guests who rent both houses at the same time for larger family gatherings (while still providing some welcome privacy to family members). These homes work well for getting families together, short term rentals for job assignments in the area as well as various other lodging needs.
