We thoroughly enjoyed our stay over MEA Weekend. The property feels secluded even though the neighbors are not that far away. We had a minor glitch during check-in but Penny was quick to resolve the issue and it didn't impact our stay. We loved sitting by the outdoor firepit with a beautiful view of the Mississippi surrounded by Fall colors. It was just what we needed!

We had a great stay at the Mississippi River Retreat. The house was a perfect home base for spending our days fishing the Mississippi River and a comfortable place to relax and hang out after a long day on the water.The outdoor space was a highlight, especially the fire pit and easy access to the Mississippi River. It’s a great setup if you’re coming to the area to fish or just want to spend time along the river.The house had everything we needed and made for a very enjoyable stay. A couple of small suggestions would be an updated grill and adding a toaster to the kitchen.Overall, a great river retreat and a place we’d definitely recommend.

Ideal location: secluded and scenic BUT near many amenities. House itself is welcoming, cozy, and full of conveniences such as wicked fireplace, fancy oven, hot tub, etc. A definite hit with the family, kids are already asking for another trip there in the summer. Highly recommend!

My spouse and I wanted to get-away after Christmas, but before the CPA tax season starts. This was a great house. Quiet and homey. We had a small maintenance issue with the house and owner came by right away to fix. Would recommend.
