Beautiful cottage!

This was our second stay at this beautiful cottage! Great location for walking to bars/resturants, shops and grocery store. I would highly recommend staying here if looking for a place to stay along the river road.

Cozy and cute

Property was exactly as shown. Very close to all attractions in Pepin including the wedding venue. Bed was super comfortable as well as the couch for a last minute add of a guest. We couldn’t get the internet to be recognized by our devices but didn’t cause any issues as we weren’t in the place long and could just use cellular signal. I’m sure it was an easy fix had we called the owner. Thanks for a great spot!

Nice, quiet getaway

My husband and I enjoyed our little weekend away. The area was quiet and the place was nice and simple. We only wished we had known that there were not many options for food or snacks past 8pm - we were a little unprepared the first night in that regard. We caught on quick though.
