This apartment was beautiful, in a perfect location, right above a very cool cafe and walking distance to everything. There was a minor mix-up with the housekeeping upon our arrival, which was taken care of quickly by management, who went above and beyond to make right. We would definitely recommend this apartment and look forward to our next stay!Oh and the huge hot tub was a great way to wind down the day.
It was very clean and up to date. I appreciated the gift cards to the coffee shop. The only reason I marked a 4 was bc it was loud during coffee shop hours since the main level was on the coffee shop 2nd floor. This also left little privacy for the hot tub.
The Loft provided everything we needed for our stay and more! Loved the atmosphere, the cozy fireplace, and the hot tub to end our day. So many cool restaurants and shops within walking distance, and Charlotte’s Coffee Shop right downstairs was a definite bonus! Communication with Jenn was easy and all necessary information was relayed timely. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the Downtown Dubuque area!
Great place to stay! They thought of everything to make our stay enjoyable. The hot tub is an amazing end to the day! The coffee house down below is a great place to eat breakfast: great food and convenient.
We truly enjoyed our stay at the Drake house. Great location to walk downtown and a quick drive to the river walk. Host left great suggestions and the coffee shop downstairs is an added bonus. Will definitely stay again if in the area 😁
The location was everything that the owner said it would be online. The unit was very clean, cozy & was located in a spot convenient to many different attractions. The hot tub was an added bonus. Would definitely stay here again!
This made for a great weekend getaway. It had everything you’d need and then some for a relaxing weekend. Plus a coffee shop on the bottom floor for good breakfast and coffee!
Great location, walking distance to newer booming downtown area as well as original downtown area to make for a great stay and experience some wonderful food!
We loved our stay here! Stayed 2 nights for an anniversary weekend. The space is clean and so cozy and the deck with hot tub was so relaxing. We walked to bars and restaurants nearby. We ordered from Charlottes coffee shop online and just walked right down the steps to pick up our orders. We will definitely be back!
Very cute place, walking distance to coffee, brewery, and a few local bars. We had friends that had a boat on the river, it was a short 13 min drive. Would highly recommend the Drake House!
Very tastefully restored brownstone. Easy walk to many restaurants. Coffee shop on main level. Our only complaint is that pullout couch was not very comfortable.
Great place to stay if you are attending a wedding in Dubuque. Close to everything downtown.

About the host
Hosted by Jenn Schuman
My husband and I are native Dubuquers. We came up with this idea after staying at a cozy vacation rental in La Jolla, CA. It sat on top of a small restaurant that served breakfast and lunch. My husband spotted this property and approached me with the idea, stating that if I wasn't 1000% in he would just forget about it. Needless to say, I was 1000% in and here we are! Ready to share our dream with you! We hope you will love it as much as we do!
