Kick back and get away from it all. This unique beachfront cabin takes on many different personalities depending on which season or even the time of day. Summertime, it is a beachhouse, Fall ,it gives the feel of a cozy cabin nestled in a deep valley at the base of a bluff. The Fall foliage contrasted with the river reflecting the blue sky can be striking. Wintertime ,the stark contrast from the white snowscape outside to the warmth inside really adds to the cozy feeling. Downey Woodpeckers and other wild birds hang out at the feeder. Shopping in Dubuque is a scenic 20 minute drive on paved roads. The Master bedroom is a great place to start the new day. Enjoy a cup of coffee on the bedrooms deck and watch the river light up with the morning sun. The Master queen and double twin bedrooms share a toilet and pedastel sink. Downstairs is the bunkbed bedroom with a full size on the bottom and twin on top. The main bathroom features an oversized shower with a tankless water heater which provides for long showers, Two foldout cots with self inflateing air mattresses can be placed where needed. The address for your GPS is 24722 Finleys Landing Rd., Sherrill Iowa 52073.

Why the Owner Chose Dubuque
There is not another place like it. Beach, harbor, and cabin with spectacular view on 2 acres is unheard of. Plus it is totally remote yet 15 minutes from shopping.
The Unique Benefits of this Cabin
Next door is Dubuque County's, Finleys Landing Park . 120 acres of rugged hiking. Climb the 150 foot river bluff for a spectacular view of the Mississipi River valley. For those non-hikers try a 15 minute drive to Balltown, the view from the viewing area is spectacular. While in Balltown check out Breitbachs Country Dining for a meal or drink. It is the oldest tavern in Iowa.

Winter Weekend

We (me, kids and grandkids) spent a long weekend here in January and it was great. We were able to go hiking, sliding, and skiing, and the kids had a great time. The cabin was clean and cosy, with some nice decorative touches, and the owner was very helpful and considerate. Would definitely do it again.

We were extremely pleased when we pulled up to our rental cabin in October...having stayed at various cabins in the Iowa/Wisconsin area, seeing the cabin nestled near the Mississippi with a great view just as advertised was welcoming. Upon entering, we were not disappointed either. The cabin was clean, very well stocked with everything we needed, with firewood available as well for our outdoor campfires. Reasonably priced, we felt we definitely got our moneys worth and would not hesitate to stay here again. More than once, one of us would smile and say "great find". I would say 5 star for sure!

We rented out this cabin for the weekend with a group of people and had a wonderful time! We stayed in the summer so we were able to walk to the beach, play sand volleyball (court right next to the cabin), plus there was a huge yard, where we had a bonfire as well. The cabin is clean, cute, and comfortable even for a group of people. All the neccesities were there for us, such as a grill. I would recommend it to anyone as a fun affordable weekend getaway!

The picture of this cabin does not do it justice. The cabin and grounds are beautiful! The girls in our family have made it a tradition to take a weekend vacation every summer and we choose a different location each year. Our 13th annual vacation we chose this cabin and it exceeded our expectations in cabin renting! It's very clean, tastefully decorated, and has everything you could possibly ask for & MORE! Not a far drive from Dubuque, where we visited the beautiful Botanical Gardens and did some shopping. We also enjoyed hanging out by the fire pit in the evening and exploring the beach nearby during the day. I would recommend this cabin to anyone! We plan to go back! Thanks Dan!
