This brand new condo on the Upper Mississippi is a wonderful rental property. The accommodations are very nice and we enjoyed our stay. The owners were in the condo next door, during some of our stay and were very kind and helpful. Scott was easy to contact to rent the condo. After we arrived he responded promptly to our questions and accommodated our needs. We slept seven people here comfortably. Two very nice full bathrooms. The kitchen is complete with dishwasher, large side by side fridge toaster and microwave. The dining area worked well with the round table and extra chairs. The kitchen also had a counter top bar and chairs. One of the more impressive features is the extra tall garage for parking your RV, boat or other toys you may want to bring along. Upstairs, in the loft, there is a large flat screen TV and a DVD player. There is no internet service, which worked out just fine for us. Although the property does not actually overlook the river, it is right across the street from the homes that do back up to the water front. You can go out the front door, walk across the street and sit under a shade tree and watch the river go by.
Harper's Ferry is a pleasant fishing/boating village right on the Mississippi River. It is a beautiful area, with the river to the east and forested hills and bluffs and field to the west. The local residents are very friendly. There are at least two restaurants in this small town a gas station with a Quickmart, a public library with WiFi internet available, post office, boat ramp and docks for those who bring their boats. We enjoyed a boat tour of a portion of the Upper Mississippi, booked through Mississippi Explorers; lots of eagles to see, beaver dams, and lots of interesting information about the Mississippi River and the area. Our captain and first mate were very knowledgeable. We also hiked the Effigy Mounds National Monument trails, which were close by and very interesting.
