Perfect for our group

This was the perfect place for our group. It was close to friends that could be our 'uber' for the weekend and close to the marina when we had to walk to our boat on Sunday. Would highly recommend!

Great Find!

We had rented a property near Galena only to have it cancel unexpectedly less than a month before Thanksgiving weekend. We found this place and it was a great find! It was clean, close to our event, and plenty spacious for the eight of us. The kitchen was nicely supplied with all the necessities to cook a meal. Would highly recommend this property to anyone needing a larger space for their family.

Cleanliness

The house was nice but the cleanliness was not great. There were boogers and stains on the beds and walls in the kids room. Black hair or fur and dead bugs were found around the home, specifically on the couch and stairs. Beds looked like they had been slept in and not washed. The top bunk is mainly unusable if you have the ceiling fan on and has very poor lighting. The pillows were flat and also had stains on them. For the most part we enjoyed our stay but the cleanliness was not up to par.

About the host

Hosted by Jeremy Noel

Host profile image
Hello! Our names are Jeremy and Kelly Noel. We are Dubuquers and love sharing our city with new people.

Why they chose this property

We chose the Fenelon Place neighborhood because it’s one of Dubuque’s most beloved areas! Home to the Fenelon Place Elevator—the world’s shortest and steepest scenic railway, built in 1882—it’s a must-see attraction during your stay.

The neighborhood itself is quiet, welcoming, and filled with historic homes and mature trees. While our townhome is a newer build, it blends beautifully into this charming setting. Guests love strolling the streets, riding the elevator, or simply relaxing on the deck with sweeping views of Dubuque and the Mississippi River.

What makes this property unique

Our townhome is modern yet perfectly situated in a historic neighborhood, giving you the best of both worlds: contemporary amenities with the charm of Fenelon Place.

It’s also spacious and ideal for large groups—with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, everyone can enjoy their own private space while still coming together in the open-concept living areas. Whether you’re here for a family reunion, a getaway with friends, or a multi-generational trip, this home balances comfort, style, and convenience.
