About this property

Tusen Takk Decorah

Tusen Takk is Norwegian for "a thousand thanks". Our wish for your visit here is for time to relax and remember what you are thankful for and what makes your life good.

We are a bright red home located on a side street, just 4 blocks from downtown. We offer 3 bedrooms, large living and dining areas, a sweet patio spot and a fenced in yard. Start up the fire pit and share your stories around the flames. Walk downtown to your favorite coffee place and enjoy this charming town.

Everything was wonderful! Home is in a very quiet dead end street, plenty of gathering space. Would be nice to have a dishwasher though. Very clean and lots of wonderful little thoughtful amenities.

This residence was excellent. The host was great and the accommodations perfect. The host was very communicative when an issue occurred (due to freezing temperatures and out of everyone's control) and resolved it quickly. I highly recommend this residence and host!

Nice place to stay. Only having bathroom downstairs was a bit of a drawback but that’s how it is. Very spacious downstairs- a nice place to chill out in. Nice to have coffee provided. Good to be able to walk downtown
