Great getaway

Very homey feel to the place. They have different spaces for people to just hang out and do different things. Games were played, movies were watched, even art projects were done! Easy to walk to town and hiking was done up to Mount Hosmer for another beautiful view! The beds are very comfortable. Kitchen was great, even has a new washer and dryer. This has a beautiful view of the MIssissippi river. It was fun to watch the new bridge being built. We gravitated towards the large windows to see what was being done throughout our stay! I can't wait to come again and see what a difference the seasons make in this beautiful setting.

Very Comfortable Stay & Great River View

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was clean, cozy and warm and the view incredible. We enjoyed seeing the sunrise over the river and watching all the bald eagles from the comfort of the living room. This was our second stay. Our first was over the Christmas Holiday when we were able to enjoy family time. We had all we needed to cook and serve meals and lots of room to play games and enjoy our time together.

Could’ve been better

Didn’t know anyone lived in the house. We didn’t come in contact with them but that would’ve been nice to know prior to booking. House smells musty. Hair from someone else in the bathroom and on towels. Place to sleep.

Recharge Weekend

We spent Friday through Tuesday relaxing at your Lansing vacation home. The weather was just right for hanging out on the deck and driving along the river. The house was spacious, uncluttered, and perfect for watching our favorite teams play football, volleyball, and basketball. We will most definitely consider returning!

Outdated home needs update

Carpet in kitchen and bathrooms, smells musty, no screens were on windows, countertops in bathrooms and toilets were oddly low if your 5’ 6” or taller, you will feel like a giant hunched over.

Great View, Unsafe Balcony

CAUTION, do not press on the balcony railing, its ready to collapse, you will fall 20 feet, the entire deck has a severe pitch away from house, it feels unstable and urgently needs replacement. The home is very dated with carpet everywhere. The toilets and countertops are very low and also need replacement.

Beautiful location and views

This property is located in a perfect place for the best views on the Mississippi River. You can walk to anywhere in town to the many shops and restaurants. The house was clean and just as described. Our family will rent here again.
