We had a great time staying at the Bayfront cottage!! It is in the perfect location on the water and only a short drive away from downtown lacrosse! Perfect place to stay with friends or family!
The location was great for our girls weekend. The kitchen was big but doesn't have a dishwasher. The fire pit in the backyard overlooking Richmond Bay was a great way to relax in the evening. It was nice to be able to walk to restaurants near by and a Kwik Trip. Enjoyed our time in LaCrosse!
Came to town for fishing trip. Convenient location and great view out back yard!

Nice little cottage
Beautiful location. Simple accommodation but comfortable. Lacks a bit of love and in need of a deep cleaning.

This is a gorgeous house and perfect for my family of 5. We had a great stay and enjoyed the hosts friendly messaging and quick responses. Great location and space.
Check in process was nice and easy. Host was very good w/ communication. Kitchen needed a good cleaning as there were cobwebs that had grease buildup above the stove. Kitchen barely had any cookware. The enclosed breezeway/porch would have been more enjoyable if it was also clean.
Our stay was perfect! The rental is in the ultimate location, water, dock for fishing, beach, bbq grill and even a fire pit.
We couldn't have been happier. We will stay again when in the area!
Nice, clean, simple place with easy access to lots of great establishments in La Crosse.

The trash was overflowing in the driveway and ripped open when we pulled up. The yard was in bad shape and it had not been mowed in a while. The bedding was stained and the sheets all need to be replaced. The water quality is bad enough that you don’t want to brush your teeth with it. We left early.
Fun place to stay. Courteous host. Loved the kitchen and sun porch.

Deck is falling apart and has holes in it. House was NOT clean. Cheap blinds that don't work, electric outlet in downstairs bedroom that didnt work. Bad decision to rent on my part.
The Cabin is located very close to downtown and the Hotel that the event we where attending. The owner responded promptly to the small issue we had checking in. I was very happy with our stay.
Walking distance from a Kwik Trip. Kayak and boat rental 2 doors down and tons of amenities close by. Downtown was a 6 dollar uber ride. We'd love to return in the summer when we'll be able to spend more time outside, on the water. Great for small family get togethers!
Great location, close to everything. The house is plenty spacious and the view from the deck is beautiful. Having a driveway was a big plus to park the boat. I will be back again.
We really enjoyed the outdoor amenities. The fishing was good. We relaxed watching the sun come up on the bay. We even enjoyed the sand beach, grilling out and a fire in the pit. The closed in porch made enjoying the bay possible on the rainy day. We had a very relaxing visit.
Very comfortable cottage where we were able to meet friends for our once a year get together. Although weather and health prohibited our plans to canoe and sit by the fire, we had a very enjoyable time. We will plan to come again next year.
We were up in the are for Oktoberfest Race Weekend at Lacrosse Fairgrounds Speedway. Property had everything you needed, as we were not there a ton. Just sleeping and showers. Would be a great place during the summer, with a riverfront back yard, and plenty of space to hang out and have a fire, etc.
Great house, great location. We were there to go fishing and it was ideal for that. We had a great time. Everything was perfect with the house the dock. And the water. It could use some electricity at the dock as we had to run 300 feet of extension cord to charge the batteries in the boat. Overall wonderful, we would rent it again.
We did have a good time on our stay here and the property has a beautiful view. The place really does need some TLC. First of all there were only 5 towels and we had 6 people. The toilet seat was being held on with one bolt and it would move everytime you sat down! There are not outlets in the bathroom and no mirrors anywhere else in the house. The railings on the back deck are not secure and if you leaned on them you would fall and definitely get hurt!
