Well maintained and stocked, had everything we needed, it was a little tight parking a big bass boat and truck, but the owner advised that he thought there was adequate room and there was! I’d definitely stay again!!!

Thank you for staying! It was a pleasure having you stay. Hope to see you again!
My husband and two young boys stayed here for a weekend due to being in town for a wedding in the area. It was a super convenient location for wedding festivities which is why we chose it and the host was great. Would recommend!
This was a beautiful trip, and John was fabulous. I would definitely stay again.

Nightmare of situation
Got charged for another place for the same night still trying to get reimbursed? Friend sunk my snow dog machine thru the ice! Left day early with another added expense to retrieve my machine under water. A friend of 40 years is no longer a friend. It was a bad experience not fair to say!

Thank you for your feedback. We're truly sorry to hear that your stay did not meet expectations and that you faced several unexpected challenges during your trip.
Regarding the double booking, we spoke with you directly during your stay and advised you to contact VRBO to resolve the issue, as modifications and cancellations must be handled through their platform. Unfortunately, as owners, we do not have the ability to cancel or modify reservations on a guest’s behalf once the check in time has come.
We strive to provide excellent service and clear communication, and we regret that this situation resulted in frustration. We sincerely hope VRBO can assist you with any remaining concerns related to the booking.
We appreciate your feedback and wish you all the best in your future travels.
Great location for fishing trip with SIL. Place was well equipped and comfortable. Public launch was only a couple blocks. Sunsets from the front yard were gorgeous
I was born and raised in Stoddard and have spent my entire life fishing, hunting, and enjoying the outdoors in this beautiful part of Wisconsin. Sharing our riverfront home lets me give guests a taste of the peaceful, nature-filled lifestyle that I’ve loved for years. Whether you're here to relax, fish, watch wildlife, or just soak in the view, I’m glad to help make your stay comfortable and memorable.

We love this location because it offers the perfect mix of peaceful riverfront living and easy access to some of the most charming towns in the region. We're just a short drive from La Crosse, Onalaska, and Holmen—areas full of rich heritage, local events, and great opportunities for shopping, dining, and exploring. We're also close to Coon Valley, Westby, Viroqua, Genoa, and Prairie du Chien, each with their own small-town charm, beautiful countryside, and unique local experiences. Whether you’re into fishing, outdoor adventure, or simply relaxing and soaking in the view, this area offers something special for everyone.
What makes this property unique
What makes our property truly unique is how close you are to the Mississippi River—you can’t get much closer without being on a boat. Your front yard is just steps from the water, with a private shoreline ledge and dock where you can sip coffee, cast a line, or watch the sunset over the river. The views are stunning, the wildlife is abundant, and the setting is incredibly peaceful. Guests often tell us it feels like a hidden gem—clean, cozy, and perfectly situated for both relaxation and adventure. Whether you're here to fish, boat, birdwatch, or just unwind, this place offers a one-of-a-kind riverfront experience.
