Beautifully updated cottage right in the heart of Fertile, Iowa!
Welcome to Memento Vivere, in Fertile, Iowa! Memento Vivere means "Remember you have to Live" and this 122 year old house was completely brought back to life by its owners with modern amenities and a cozy atmosphere, all the while preserving its charm. This 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom cottage is the perfect place to get away from all the hustle and bustle of life. With a separate workspace, dining room, living room, kitchen, coffee/wine bar - this house has everything you need to relax and unwind.
I would recommend this house and town 5 0ut of 5 stars. I love the Cafe Mir' for its big city menu and the beautiful little river town!

Best cottage we’ve ever stayed at; meticulously clean and comfortable. Fertile is small community with wonderful people, a beautiful park, and a lovely farm to table restaurant plus a unique store with many treasures. We will be back!

Great renovation and location!
Very cute property in the small town of Fertile, IA. Location was perfect as it we were in for a wedding at the Winan Creek Barn venue. This was five minutes away vs almost 20 to the nearest hotel. Impressively peaceful on the back patio at night, and just a few blocks down the block from a great little restaurant called Cafe Mir. Definitely recommend if staying in the area.

Weekend getaway
Very clean and cozy home!! Bigger than i expected. Tastefully decorated. Comfortable furnishings. Very cute town. We had dinner at the restaurant Mir, and were surprised that they were so busy had to wait for almost an hour. Oddly enough the antique store next door served alcoholism beverages on their patio and had live music. The food was incredible!!

Family Getaway
This Fertile house was a perfect place to spend a few nights. My family of four was able to spread out and my girls especially loved the gorgeous upstairs bedroom. Plus we were within walking distance to our favorite Iowa restaurant, Cafe Mir.

Perfect space for our family.
For our weekend stay it was myself, my wife, our 4yr old and my mother. The bed on the main floor was helpful for my mom (no stairs), and the rest of us slept upstairs. Beds were comfortable.

Great Weekend
My husband, best friend, and her husband came down for a wedding in Joice. We loved the idea of having our own space vs staying at the casino. We hung out, played games, and had the best time in this gorgeous small town home.

Wonderful place to stay
Wonderful place to stay. It is super cute and clean. We had all the comforts of home for far less than a tiny expensive hotel room. Fertile is very close to Mason City and Clear Lake. We can’t wait to stay there again. 😊

オーナーについて
オーナー : Tracy
Both my husband and I are Iowa natives. My husband grew up in nearby Mason City and I was raised in the Iowa City area. We have strong family ties still in North Iowa and own property in Clear Lake where we love to spend time.
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
We fell in love with this town having visited a local restaurant called Cafe Mir. We were looking for properties for storage purposes and this fit the bill. The house is 122 years old and was in a sad state after being neglected for many of those years. Our choices were to tear it down or build it back and we chose the latter and didn't look back. We hope our guests enjoy the updated amenities and also enjoy this quaint North Iowa town.
この宿泊施設の特徴
In addition to the local restaurant, Cafe Mir, there is also a coffee shop and market open on the weekends .. Fertile Beans and the Fertile Market.
