About this property

Cabin in the Bluff, Only Minutes from the Mississippi River!

*New for 2024 - Stainless Steel Appliances (Microwave, Refrigerator, and Stove)*

2 bedroom, 1 bath home that features an open concept kitchen and family room. There is a detached screened-in gazebo, which is perfect for relaxing. Also featured is a fire-pit. Sleeps 8 on beds - 2 full and 4 twins. It is perfect for family vacations, hunting or fishing trips, motorcycle adventures, or just a quiet weekend away.

The home is located 1 mile from downtown Harpers Ferry, less than 1.5 miles from the Mississippi River, 7 miles from Yellow River State Forest, 10 miles from Effigy Mounds National Monument, 14 miles to the Casino Queen in Marquette, and so much more.

Our family uses this cabin throughout the year, so rather than sit empty, our hope is that others can enjoy all that the NE Iowa area has to offer.

Weekend getaway

This property was exactly what we needed. It was close to a nice park and splash pad for the kids. We were a little nervous with the river so high so we chose to stay close to the house. The house was cozy with plenty of room for everyone. Bunk beds were a hit with the little ones. We took a little drive to Spook Cave and it did not disappoint. We were all able to see something new.😃

Nice property that is supplied properly. We didn’t have time to use the gazebo and fire pit But it’s a nice little area with supplied firewood.

Great place!

This was a wonderful place to stay for a getaway. It was quiet and located in a beautiful area. The first morning we were there I was outside having a cup of coffee and a doe and her fawn walked into the front yard from the woods across the street. Overall it was fantastic and I'd definitely stay here again.

A comfortable place to stay

We spent several days hiking at the various parks in the area and stayed here with our two young sons. They loved the bunk beds and gazebo. It was clean and comfortable and a nice place to stay.

Cabin in the Bluff

What a wonderful and cozy stay. Harpers is a beautiful little community and the home provided a place for us to rest and relax between boating, hiking, and fishing. The home is clean and had everything you'd expect in the comfort of your own home. The owners were wonderful and went above and beyond.

About the host

Hosted by Ryan Randall

Host profile image
This property is owned by a family who grew up boating and spending time in the outdoors. While our plan is to utilize this cabin for rest and relaxation, our lives are very hectic. Rather than let the cabin go unused, we would rather guests have the opportunity to spend time in the Harpers Ferry area, soaking up all of the scenic views, great food, and everything Northeast Iowa has to offer!
