Excellent location in Fountain City, walkable to all nearby bars and restaurants. Enjoyed each evening's beautiful sunsets over the Mississippi River next to the fire on the balcony.
We very much enjoyed our 2 night stay! Great location in town and had everything we needed. The hot tub and fire were wonderful additions as well! Would definitely stay again.
Very clean and updated the property manager is a great person and always available. There are great local establishments with good food and drinks within a 2 minute walk.

Thank you so much and thanks for being such clean and awesome guest!
Beautiful property with everything you could want for a weekend getaway. The hot tub at sunset looking out over the river was perfect. The robes are a great touch and the location is perfect. Will definitely be back.
We needed a place for a wedding we were attending near by. Our friend loves trains! So this was a perfect place to stay! Sitting in the hot tub was a bonus! The town is awesome and great food! Host was great! We would definitely stay again!
Excellent place for a quick girls weekend! Everything was as advertised in pictures. Ample off street parking, easy access to the property with lock box, the place was clean, beds were comfortable enough. Balcony for a quiet start to the morning and the hot tub at night were what really made the place.The establishments right in town were super convenient but it is also worth it to take the short drive to Alma, many cute businesses.
Came to visit our daughter for the Christmas holiday. Beautiful location and close to everything we needed. Even checked out a few cool spots just mins away. Highly recommend staying here while you’re in town, the property owner is fabulous to work with and extremely responsive! Thank you!!
Great spot to stay right on the river to see the fall colors. It was fun watching the train go by and amazing that there was 0 train noise or vibration inside this sturdy building. Loved all the activities available in the area including apple orchard, river cruise, side by side adventure etc….
