Jean checked on us several times to make sure everything was fine. She has done a great job with the property. The house was clean, organized, and just great for us. Kitchen had everything we needed and plenty of room to house our family to eat together. Beds were very comfortable and it was easy to sleep. The overlook of the river is a great view. We definitely would recommend this house and will stay again.

Was pleasantly surprised by the house. We spent most of our time on the deck that has an amazing view of the river and bridge. Parts of the house are a little dated but it was clean and comfortable. It’s also walking distance to town. Jean was very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. Will definitely stay here again!

We really enjoyed our weekend stay! It is a great location to home base for exploring NE Iowa. We enjoyed watching the barges and boats from the large deck. This was our second stay here, and the upstairs bedroom overlooking the river was nicely updated since our first stay. This is a spacious and clean home. Would definitely stay again!

Wow! One of the best views on the Mississippi River! This spacious, beautiful home had everything we needed and then some! Stunning views from nearly every room; well-stocked roomy kitchen; spacious bedrooms with wonderful mattresses; a huge deck with plenty of chairs and a table; cozy living room with comfy furniture. Wonderful hosts and prompt communication. We stayed for our annual sister’s retreat.

Very Comfortable Stay & Great River View

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was clean, cozy and warm and the view incredible. We enjoyed seeing the sunrise over the river and watching all the bald eagles from the comfort of the living room. This was our second stay. Our first was over the Christmas Holiday when we were able to enjoy family time. We had all we needed to cook and serve meals and lots of room to play games and enjoy our time together.

Unbelievable Views

Views were even more stunning than the listing. Perfectly situated for walks around town. Only drawback was the AC flow to the 2nd story. We stayed during the hottest weekend yet and were unable to make use of the extra rooms due to the temps upstairs. Other than that, lovely place to stay!

The view was amazing of the river, the bluffs, and the eagles. The deck was perfect in the morning and shaded in the hot sun. It was walking distance to everything in town. The living room, kitchen and dining was spacious and had 2 tables. The downstairs shower had a rain shower head and a fold down bench if needed. The upstairs had a bath/shower combo perfect for littles. The photo book was fun to see how the house looked before she started renovations. Jean was very easy to communicate with. We enjoyed our time there and already are planning another stay!

Recharge Weekend

We spent Friday through Tuesday relaxing at your Lansing vacation home. The weather was just right for hanging out on the deck and driving along the river. The house was spacious, uncluttered, and perfect for watching our favorite teams play football, volleyball, and basketball. We will most definitely consider returning!

Great getaway

Very homey feel to the place. They have different spaces for people to just hang out and do different things. Games were played, movies were watched, even art projects were done! Easy to walk to town and hiking was done up to Mount Hosmer for another beautiful view! The beds are very comfortable. Kitchen was great, even has a new washer and dryer. This has a beautiful view of the MIssissippi river. It was fun to watch the new bridge being built. We gravitated towards the large windows to see what was being done throughout our stay! I can't wait to come again and see what a difference the seasons make in this beautiful setting.

Could’ve been better

Didn’t know anyone lived in the house. We didn’t come in contact with them but that would’ve been nice to know prior to booking. House smells musty. Hair from someone else in the bathroom and on towels. Place to sleep.

Outdated home needs update

Carpet in kitchen and bathrooms, smells musty, no screens were on windows, countertops in bathrooms and toilets were oddly low if your 5’ 6” or taller, you will feel like a giant hunched over.

Great View, Unsafe Balcony

CAUTION, do not press on the balcony railing, its ready to collapse, you will fall 20 feet, the entire deck has a severe pitch away from house, it feels unstable and urgently needs replacement. The home is very dated with carpet everywhere. The toilets and countertops are very low and also need replacement.
