About this property

166 Bluff Street townhouse

4 bedroom 2 bath town home in the Cathedral Historic District downtown Dubuque. Renovated in 2019, yet keeping its vintage charm, this home is ideal for larger/extended families or groups traveling together. The kitchen has all the essentials and an easy walk to restaurants and local shops. There are Three Queen bedrooms on the second floor, a King bedroom on the third floor, and a Queen pullout sectional sofa in the lower level family room. The TVs are hooked up to Hulu, Netflix, and Amazon prime. If you are looking for local advice I'm happy to share my favorite spots or recommend places that I think you may like .

Beautiful home in quiet neighborhood

Chose this house because it was close to the family members we were visiting. Situated in a nice neighborhood, the home had a very well stocked kitchen, clean and modern bathrooms and very comfortable beds with superior linens. We enjoyed every minute of our stay and highly recommend this property.

Great downtown Dubuque location

Easy to get to and close to HyVee and downtown Dubuque shops and the elevator, Shot Tower Pizza and other places to eat. It was super clean, the beds soft and tastefully furnished. Lots of stairs, but also more spacious than expected. Owners checked in and were responsive. We loved it!
