Cozy little villa ready for your next stay. Private beach to play and dock the boat. Just steps away from canoe, water bike rentals. Just blocks away from the boat landing. Have a fire at your own pit. This is an affordable older home on the river. If you are looking for something like the Charmant of an elegant place with no flaws this is not for you. NOTE: If you are looking for something affordable in a cute little home then this is the place. Not everything is perfect âŠthis is why we rent out at an affordable rate. This home is for affordable not perfection! If you have high expectations please book the Chalet.
Host provided the necessary information to access the property. The house was adequate and clean. The water had a strong odor and we werenât sure if it was drinkable. The largest bedroom was chilly, but extra blankets were available. The accommodations were fair for the price.
Nice place for what we were looking for. (3 bedrooms) The only slight improvements needed are water pressure in shower was lacking. The water does have a slight smell. Beds were comfortable. Nice kitchen, great view of water, with dock access. Thank you for allowing us to stay.
As the host states, itâs not perfect but for the price itâs what we expected and maybe a bit better. The only real disappointment is cleanliness. Not sure who or where the cleaning fee goes. The place was relatively clean but you didnât want to look to closely in the harder to access spaces of the home.
The house was nice, accommodating and clean. The water pressure in shower was poor and need softener for well water. Also we could not get amazon firestick to work in bedroom kept saying could not connect to internet. Overall nice house and good location.
We enjoyed the French Island vibe. We ate at River Rats and Tom Sawyers, great food and people. Enjoyed the dock and fishing. Wish beach was little cleaner but it is spring. Ceiling fans all worked and slept great. Liked the king size bed. Couldnât find a sheet they said was left with WiFi info. They did get that to us. Was a perfect Motherâs Day weekend in the La crosse area.
The beds werenât made and had crumbs in them, smashed Doritos all over the dining room floor. The AC would not work it was 77âą and rising by the minute dirt on floor, cobwebs all over the lamp shades. The lights and fans were confusing and the directions that were left were not helpful at all. We ended up not staying and got our back
There was a mud wasp nest between the front door and screen door. Neither TV in the house would work. The water from all faucets and shower smelled like rotten eggs. The property was not ON the water, you had to walk down a hill to get to the dock. The yard was unkept. The property was moderately cleaned. When I contacted the owners about the issues, they failed to act and said I was freaking out and had a lot of drama (very unprofessional).
Our stay overall was good for the price. We enjoyed being close to the river and having a dock to use. Our kids loved swimming and playing in the sand on the small beach.The listing said there was a deck but there isn't. And the water is a bit farther from the house that we expected. We also have a toddler and there is an open staircase to the basement, which would have been nice to know about. We would have brought a baby gate.The grill was in the back but had no propane. We had to switch out the tank with the owners other house next door. While we did enjoy the week, the house is not very well kept. It need a good cleaning, there was hair everywhere. There were also several things in the house that were broken or falling apart.
Pros: updated decor, necessary amenities were all there - towels, dishes, etc, spacious main bedroom and living room, manager addressed needs quickly.
Cons: needs a deep cleaning - esp floors and carpets, no hand soap in bathroom.
This place was great for 4 people- plenty of space , but not actually on the river. Lacking some amenities- not enough towels, no hand soap, no dish towels, electric problems.
Beds were comfy and location was good, so overall a good deal for the price.
Cute decor with a few quirks. Wi-Fi sketchy. Suggestions - garbage can in bathroom, large fry pan, directions for coffee pot (never saw one that brewed and then warmed). Worked for our quick stay and great location for our needs. Owner quick to respond.
House definitely serves its purpose, but host interaction was lacking, we had an issue with the toilet clogging on Monday evening, there was no plunger provided, contacted host through VRBO, wound up having to take care of issue ourselves, (1 bathroom and 3 people, it HAS to work) host finally replied on Thursday. Water softener cycles at 1am every other morning, it is very loud and in the basement that opening is right outside master bedroom door so it will wake you up. There was no bleach to sanitize dishes as noted on the notes left on living room table. No dish towels in kitchen, I bought two and left them behind. Water smelled horribly of sulphur. Bath towels were put in linen closet still very damp, I had to lay them around the house to dry since there are no laundry facilities. Batteries in remote for tv were dead. The house served it's purpose, we chose over a hotel to be able to cook and not have to eat out as often and to have room for parking with our boat easily. Neighbors were friendly. Trash service never ran while we were there, outside receptacle was already half full when we arrived. Would recommend house as long as you are not super picky
My family and I arrived after check in time. The house was not cleaned. The beds were left the way the previous occupants had slept in. The bathroom was dirty with used towels lying on the floor. The kitchen and dining room floor had not been cleaned.I immediately informed the host upon noticing the condition of the property. She responded within 15 minutes. She gave us 2 options, wait an additional 3 hours until someone could arrive to clean, or she would refund our entire stay. We chose to have our stay refunded, and found another property.I communicated that I was disappointed that the property was not ready, and that this has never happened after booking several properties in the past. The host accused us that we booked last minute, and it would have been cleaned had we given more notice. The property was booked 48 hours prior to the date of check in.After looking at other reviews this seems to be an issue. Another individual had the same issue that they arrived to the property not being clean and ready.I would not recommend staying at a property managed by this host.
Place looks nice inside. Water smelled like rotten eggs. Shower head was not working correctly. No water pressure. Very disappointed. Reading the reviews after I had already booked this is an ongoing issue. Back from at least 2023. I feel I should get a 50% refund. I literally didnât shower
