Advertised as a 'romantic' getaway - I must point out that it's PERFECT for individual relaxation/downtime - so cozy and peaceful! I believe the accommodations were better than advertised - but keep in mind that the main 'bed' is a futon, so not everyone would find that comfortable. John provided more than essentials, and the place is so cute, with sweet attention to quality & style! You can just stay put OR make little adventures in the 'driftless'. I enjoyed a trip to Lansing, IA and crossing the Mississippi. I drove a 'loop' both sides of the river ...all in one afternoon. And I loved seeing the baby geese with their parents on Rusk Creek on the road to the cabin. The Driftless Education Center, and Coffee on The River were my favorite stops. Be careful of the roller-coaster backroads :) - Best to travel in the daylight! And also, just because the caboose is stationary, doesn't mean you don't have to watch for VERY active train activity when you're out and about - it is part of the scenery, and the experience.
