Fishing tournament

This was a perfect spot for my partner and I. We had easy parking for 2 trucks pulling bass boats. Great access to electricity to charge our batteries and friendly neighbors that stopped and talked to us. The house had everything thing we needed and was freshly remodeled. Tv had a great selection of things to watch, will go back.

Delightful and clean home

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this house. It was a great place to be as we explored the driftless area. The house was exceptionally clean and very well organized with all the amenities of home. It lacked for nothing. Regardless if we were out exploring or staying inside on a rainy day, we were comfortable and content with this house. If we are in the area, we will definitely stay here again. Love it

Bass fishing

My brother in law and I stayed here for a week and will come back. Fishing was good. Backed the boat in the driveway with the boat in the grass and charged the boat from underneath the deck or back of the house. You could park another on the other side of the house also. We cooked breakfast and dinner each day and did laundry in the basement.

Pool 9 fishing get away

Very nicely finished rental. We'll call the property "the mullet" business in the front- right on the main street. But the back deck & back yard gives a very private party feel. Watching the high school football game from the back yard was fun- I hope the home team won. I would recommend and return to this rental. Oh yes- the reason for our stay was Bass fishing the Mississippi- fishing was great too. Thanks for offering dog friendly home- our Lab's are our kids & go everywhere with us.

About the host

Hosted by Jeff Dellitt

Host profile image
Jeff & Shelly are your hosts. We love hearing the stories from our guests about their visits to the area. We believe our home is perfect for a couple's retreat or small friends group in town for fishing. We have even hosted a family in town to view a meteor shower!

Why they chose this property

We chose this area for its incredible scenery and the awesome fishing opportunities on Pool 9 of the Mississippi River. This property serves as our second home when visiting!

What makes this property unique

Incredible view from our deck of the De Soto Valley, with meandering creek and towering bluffs. We are also walking distance to Pork's Bar, which has incredible pizza & chicken!
