Our home is a cozy modern cottage on 8 acres on a bluff overlooking Lake Pepin. The house is mostly windows with incredible views of the sunrise, sunset, birds and the Milky Way. The house has one bedroom with a king-sized bed, and a queen-sized futon couch in the lower level. There is a full bath and kitchen as well as a wood-burning sauna. The house is ideal for a solo getaway or a couples retreat, but can accommodate four. We do not allow guns of any kind on the property.

The views were stunning. Quiet and relaxing area. We played ping pong and darts. Got to watch a childhood favorite movie on VHS and my husband loved it too. Would highly recommend a visit and would totally come again.
The home was a perfect little hide away. The views stunning. The sauna a great treat. We had everything we needed for a weekend get away. The birds were so entertaining. Only a hot tub would have made it better but not missed. Thank you for sharing your slice a heaven.
You can’t beat the views and location. The home is very nice and well stocked. My wife and I enjoyed the sauna and had fun playing ping pong and darts. It’s in a great location with plenty to do. We’ll definitely be back.

Great for any season
Super warm and cozy! A quiet and secluded spot to stay for a couple's weekend in the river valley. We enjoyed the overlook and a campfire at night. The home is well-equipped for a family stay.
We so enjoyed your home! Private, quiet, so so clean, well equipped, great view! Thank you so much! If we’re ever in the area again, we will definitely return!
We came for visit to relax, recharge and have fun. This cottage was beyond our expectations. On so many levels it was amazing; from the view, to the furnishings and comfort and the beauty of artistic pieces throughout the cottage. Plus I have never seen a Vrbo so so well stocked with supplies. The view above the treetops was the best. Thank you for sharing this special place.

We met our daughter from St Paul for a long weekend. There are great views of the Mississippi/ Lake as well as the hills of gorgeous green. Birds galore at the feeders. Located at the end of the neighborhood street but private and peaceful. Large lot. Comfortable beds and plenty of room for three.
Our biggest disappointment was the cleanliness, especially in the kitchen. Felt like the cleaning service did not show up before our stay and we had leftover grime and dirt from the previous guests.
Nearby Stockholm is small but very quaint, great pie and a wonderful bakery. Loved the Scandinavia shop. No nearby grocery.
Limited hiking.
We have booked this unit a number of times. It's a great little house.

Overly quiet neighborhood and lots of ants.
Beautiful location. My fiancée and I were there alone and got scolded for having music by the fire. Were told it was a quiet neighborhood. No tv inside and no music aloud at night. Kitchen was overran by ants. Basement ping pong table was covered in dust when we tried to play. Great place if your only intention is to be quiet inside.
We always have a wonderful time at this beautiful home
The view is fantastic, it is immaculate, lovely art and furnishings.
Lots to do in area
Highly recommend!
The views of the Mississippi River from the deck of this property are stunning. The property is very well furnished, quite beyond what was expected from the description (you pretty much need to bring nothing). We enjoyed the tranquility of the property very much and, if staying in the area, would rent here again.
Quick note: be aware there is another property being constructed next door as of September 2021. We did not find this intrusive, as the tree line blocks most of the noise and we did a lot of day trips anyway. However you should be aware that you may hear the occasionally beeping of a bulldozer backing up.
Loved the property, inside and out. Private location with beautiful views from all of the windows. A very comfortable and pleasant home. Enjoyed walking the property and watching the visiting deer family and variety of birds. Great location for easy exploring of the towns, shops, and restaurants along the river. Thanks to our Hosts for sharing this wonderful property! Jim and Roxanne
Everything was fabulous. I only wish we had better access to the lake we had such a great view of. All in all we had a great time and it was a nice little house.
Property was well kept up with many amenities. The furnished family /rec. area as well as the sauna were noteworthy examples. The view of lake Pepin from the deck was awesome ! Plenty area to hike both on and around the property.

Despite a couple of rainy days during our long weekend, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Being at the edge of the bluff makes it feel like a tree house with the way the land drops away from the deck side and the trees grow up from far below. Being familiar with the area, I knew we’d hear the occasional train down along Hwy 35, but beyond that our soundtrack was just birds and music (thanks for the great CD collection available). We identified a few species we don’t see at home and really loved the antics of the many hummingbirds. This is definitely a place I’ll recommend to friends and family!
See first time review last year. Stay was even better basically because we were more familiar with the area, though COVID-19 prevented us from enjoying the local towns & shops.
