Joyau dans le manoir entiĂšrement restaurĂ© de la Couronne pour les rĂ©unions, fĂȘtes et groupes Slps 21

NOUS AVONS PROPRIÉTÉ 3 PROPRIÉTÉS DANS 1/2 BLOC DE L'AUTRE. La Grande Dame de la Triple Couronne est enfin terminĂ©e aprĂšs 3 ans de rĂ©novations et de dĂ©coration minutieuses. Avec sa maison sƓur Priester House situĂ©e Ă  cĂŽtĂ©, vous pouvez maintenant accueillir jusqu'Ă  37 adultes dans les deux maisons (Priester peut accueillir 16 personnes, Koehler peut accueillir 21 adultes). et notre orioerty Gaines dort 12. En cela, notre troisiĂšme maison, connue sous le nom de Koehler House et reprĂ©sentĂ©e ici, comprend 8 chambres complĂštes chacune avec une salle de bain sĂ©parĂ©e. Une rĂ©sidence de la reine Anne vers 1895 digne d'un des capitaines d'industrie de la Gold Coast. Construit au zĂ©nith du quartier, le manoir Koehler a Ă©tĂ© construit par M. et Mme Koehler d'ĂȘtre Ă  cĂŽtĂ© de leur fille bien-aimĂ©e qui s'Ă©tait mariĂ©e dans la famille Priester et qui vivait Ă  cĂŽtĂ©. Il y a toujours un escalier reliant les deux propriĂ©tĂ©s dans la cour arriĂšre. Il est amusant d'imaginer que les petits-enfants des Koehlers et du Priester aient toute latitude pour courir et jouer dans les deux immenses maisons, surveillĂ©s par leurs parents, grands-parents et domestiques adorĂ©s. Le manoir Koehler dispose d'une cuisine entiĂšrement Ă©quipĂ©e avec une cheminĂ©e et un grand Ăźlot de granit autour duquel servir et circuler. Une salle de petit dĂ©jeuner confortable Ă©clairĂ©e par un lustre de navire et les vitres de centaines de morceaux de verre biseautĂ©. 14 adultes peuvent ĂȘtre assis confortablement dans la majestueuse salle Ă  manger qui comprend une cheminĂ©e et des siĂšges autour de la table Ă  manger entourĂ©e d'une fresque panoramique Ă  360 degrĂ©s du Mississippi
Bateaux à vapeur riviÚre et roue à aubes. Il y a un garde-manger complet avec majordomes en porcelaine, verrerie et couverts pour votre usage. Il y a trois plafonds en étain d'époque dans la cuisine, la chambre principale et la chambre à l'est, une magnifique entrée et un total de cinq cheminées dans la maison, toutes sont équipées de radiateurs électriques à effet de sécurité. Dans l'entrée, il y a une alcÎve fermée par un écran chinois avec un lit gigogne pour une personne souhaitant résider au rez-de-chaussée.
Le porche circulaire extérieur dans la cour est magnifique et est le couronnement de la maison. Le porche surplombe la riviÚre avec une vue sur le coucou. Il surplombe les deux cours arriÚre et est un bel endroit pour profiter du soleil avec sa vue plein sud ombragée toute la journée. De loin, la salle publique préférée de la maison est le salon des dames situé juste à cÎté de la salle à manger décorée en bleu doux et présentant son lustre en verre de Murano d'origine. La douce lumiÚre de l'aprÚs-midi et le soleil brillant des jours d'hiver en font un lieu de rassemblement confortable que tout le monde aimera. Chaque chambre est décorée avec un thÚme individuel.
Au premier Ă©tage, il y a l'alcĂŽve grillagĂ©e chinoise avec le lit gigogne et un lit queen cacher un lit dans le salon des dames. Le salon des dames peut ĂȘtre rendu privĂ© par ses portes escamotables d'origine. Au deuxiĂšme Ă©tage

Great House for Groups

This house was large enough for our group and provided a great place to stay for the duration of our time in Davenport. We arrived when it was dark and it was a little tricky to get into the house. There were no checkout instructions and that was a little confusing. If you are looking for a large house with lots of bedrooms and bathrooms, this is it. The kitchen was well equipped and we were glad to be able to cook most of our meals there. Cleanliness left a little to be desired and we did see evidence of some critters, but it is a large property and there is a lot to clean!

Family Reunion

Poor first impression with the grass not mowed, railings falling down on the back porch steps, and unslightly backyard. Inside the house was furnished beautifully with lots of character. The main TV did not work and when we called the caretaker, there was no response. The freezer was not freezing properly. Despite our concerns, we found the house charming and enjoyed our stay.

Beautifully restored Gold Coast mansion

We really enjoyed staying in this lovely house. Besides the beautifully restored rooms and period furnishings, the bathrooms and kitchen had all the conveniences. The back porch was especially nice. Communication with the owner was easy, and getting into the property was clearly explained and easy to do. I hope we can stay again in the future.

Guys Trip

We had nine adult men together for a guys trip. The property really fit this well as everyone had a separate bedroom. The backyard was secluded and an excellent spot to congregate. The surrounding neighborhood didn't have much to offer, but it was a short distance to the downtown restaurants. Very cool house that was well maintained. The only issue we ran into was there isn't central air on the main floor and the window units had a little difficulty keeping up on a 90+ degree day.

Unique home that fit our needs

This house was very unique and filled with history. Every day we noticed something different. There is plenty of room for a large family or group. We were 11 adults in town for a golf weekend. The House was perfect for us and we enjoyed lounging in the inside and outside of the property. The immediate neighborhood does not offer a lot but a short drive you can get to many restaurants, golf, casinos, etc. we used VIP transportation to get around to the golf courses and they were great to work with if you need transportation.

Our Family Stay

This was truly an eclectic property! We rented this house as we needed 8 bedrooms with 8 attached bathrooms. When we arrived one of the attached bathrooms had a broken sink and tub with notes attached to not use. Fortunately for us one couple was unable to attend so we used the extra room. After the first night, one couple said they froze. After investigation, they found one of the windowpanes in their room was broken out. With lots of renovation and regular maintenance, this property truly could be a jewel.

Family Reunion

This was the perfect house for us to stay at for a sibling who graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic. The distance from the college and shopping was perfect! All 8 siblings, parents and few others filled the house. Having our own bathroom for every room was a bonus! Plenty of room to gather on the main level too.

Four Families vacation

We loved the house! We are 4 families who have vacationed together since our kids were pre-teen. They are now all out of college. There are 17 of us so we used every room. The guest to bathroom ratio was a huge plus for us. The home is beautiful and historic. The beds were comfortable the back porch and patio great for morning coffee or afternoon cocktails We found a booklet of historic homes in the neighborhood so we enjoyed exploring and finding them. Im greatful there are people with the vision and patience yo restore these historic gems.

Timeless Gem!

This house has such historical beauty! What a gem! We traveled to Davenport for our son's wedding and filled every one of the many rooms with our family. The bride's family reserved the companion home nextdoor making for a wonderful few days. Can't say enough about the uniqueness of this place from the artwork to the chandeliers, to all the detailed ceilings and fixtures. Everywhere you looked was a new treasure! We hosted the rehearsal dinner at this home and it was perfect! Lots of space for a gathering inside and out. The back porch was our favorite place to be - plenty of seating, a firepit, lots of string lights, etc. We didn't want to leave! A huge plus to this place was the abundance of bathrooms. Every room had it's own. We also appreciated the fact that there were two laundry rooms. Can't wait to see prewedding photos from the wedding photographer. He fell in love with the place and couldn't wait to have the opportunity to take pictures around the home. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Family Gathering

Interesting place that was large enough to accommodate our families and our kids. It was so nice that each bedroom had its own full bathroom and made for super convenience. The backyard came in handy one of the evenings for kids to play. I was pleasantly surprised at how well the AC units worked seeing that each day there were in the 90s. Small deduction for cigarette butts left on back porch and yard from previous guests and the neighborhood can be a little suspect but you can’t fault owner for that. Truly a lovely home and overall we enjoyed our time there.

Central Station for the large family

We had 20 people of various ages in the house for a family reunion and 90th birthday celebration. The kitchen was well stocked and the bedrooms all were unique and enjoyable. The house is like a museum, an "eye spy" game and a constant source of discussion. The location is ideal for the river front and old town Davenport.

"Pure Joy" was my wife's expression.

Pure Joy Was My Wife’s Expression This was the perfect home for my wife’s 50th birthday party as we celebrated with a ROARING 20’s theme. Decorations were not needed, as the home itself, was the backdrop of class, sophistication and had the old-style vibe. We entertained guests arriving from Minneapolis and Chicago who were equally impressed with the uniqueness and character of the majestic home. We enjoyed exploring the nooks & crannies of the mansion. From the exquisite chandeliers to the detail in the wooden built in’s, to the stained-glass windows and vintage dĂ©cor
 our guests were in awe of the craftmanship and detail of this beautiful VRBO home. My wife also researched the mansion and learned all about the life of the original owners, who built the house back in 1895, which made our experience so delightful. They were German immigrants who spent their entire lives in the brewing industry and moved in right after they retired. The current owner of this home was a delight to work with and the maintenance man was equally as kind. “Pure joy” is the expression on my wife’s face this past weekend. We relished each minute of our time at the old Koehler Mansion.

Review

The neighborhood was scary There were bugs. Ants in the kitchen, and Lady Bugs on all the beds. There were a few dead flies too. Maybe 10. We couldnt get in because we were given the wrong pass code. Then when we got the right code the keys were NOT in the box. Maintenance man was good. Each time we called him he responded quickly.

Family Thanksgiving

We loved our stay. As an extended family group of 14 adults, we were very comfortable in this large house. The fact that each bedroom had its own bathroom was an unusual luxury for a house with that many bedrooms. The common areas fit our needs for being together as a group as well as separating for individual activities. We were there over Thanksgiving and we were planning to use the grill, but didn’t notice until later Wednesday evening that there was not a propane tank. The handyman for the house was there in the morning with a new tank (on Thanksgiving). We chose to go to Davenport from Michigan, Kentucky, Illinois, and Indiana specifically to stay in this historic house and we were not disappointed.

Very spacious and lovely home

Our ladies group stayed in this home and thoroughly enjoyed our time there, for the most part, but there were a few hiccups during our stay. One big one was that it was terribly cold in the house when we arrived Friday evening. There were no main instructions to follow as to where heat thermostats were located. We tried the most obvious one that was in the dining room, but still weren't getting any heat. We finally found one on the third floor, but the first two floors were still very cold -- a little over 50 degrees. We tried using some of the space heaters that were in the fireplaces, but that didn't help very much. I tried contacting the owner through VRBO, but after waiting and not receiving a response, I called the phone number that we were given, but I had to leave a voicemail. Still no response. The next morning, I messaged through VRBO again and finally received an answer from her that she would call the maintenance person. We found out later that there was another thermostat in the kitchen (it looked more like a light timer and it wasn't in a very obvious space) and that it had been turned way down. We also found out that the one in the dining room didn't work at all. After that, it was a much more pleasant stay! :) It would have been much more helpful if there had been an instruction sheet/book with information on heating, cooling, WiFi info, phone numbers, check out instructions, etc., instead of sticky notes placed here and there. Having stayed in many places over the last 20 years, that's one of the first things we look for in a home that we are renting. It's a beautiful old home and knowing that it had undergone a recent renovation, we would have loved to have seen pictures of it from its 'day', before and after pictures of it during the renovation, and a little history of the mansion itself and the family who originally built it (unless we missed this somewhere). They did a marvelous job in the renovation and the rooms are beautifully decorated! It was nice to have such a lovely and spacious home to relax in for the weekend!

À propos de l’hîte

HÎte : Villa

Image de profil de l’hîte
The Owners are proud to present their third restoration in the Gold Coast of Davenport. Here's Lois-an incredibly active and creative octogenarian. Who let that girl on a ladder? If you look closely at the mural in the dining room you will see that she painted some of it herself.

They drove through Davenport in 1964 on their way to the New York World's Fair.
Lois said to Maurice:
"I want to come back some day and buy a house on the Mississippi River."
50 years later they came back and bought Priester House and commenced restoring it to a single family home. To do so, they had to evict a bunch of bad renters-a host of raccoons. They couldn't believe their good fortune. A few years later Koehler Mansion became available next door. The following year, the Gaines Mansion was stripped of its copper plumbing and electrical wire. The City threatened to demolish it. In stepped Lois and Maurice to save it. They say that fools rush in. The owners reckon that they have stripped miles of woodwork. Lois has sewn yards of curtains and Maurice is a fixture at the local Home Depot. The friends they have made in the neighborhood, fellow restorers, are new friends for life. The Owners have imbued each of the 40 plus rooms of these houses with their talent, hard-work and good humor. As a guest, you will feel their spirit.

Voici pourquoi l’hĂŽte a choisi cet hĂ©bergement

This the third and best of the three houses they bought to save them from the wrecking ball. See our other VRBO listings Priester #817328 and Gaines
# 398617.

All three are now complete and ready for rental.

Voici ce qui rend cet hébergement unique

The three houses are within the same block near the Centennial Bridge that spans the Mississippi River.
Gaines sleeps 12
Priester sleeps 16
Koehler sleeps 20
Together they sleep 48! Perfect for family reunions or get togethers
