Summary: We had a wonderful time staying at this location! The property was clean, cozy, private, and comfortable. The hosts were easy to contact and quickly responded to questions. We enjoyed the beautiful views of Lake Pepin and the hot tub was a nice bonus. The hosts provided ear plugs and eye masks, which was appreciated, because the windows let in a lot of light, and sound travels easily between the open concept main level and upstairs. The basement bedroom had beautiful views as well, and there was a charming screened-in sitting room. The two lofted single beds would be great for adventurous school-aged children, but us adults were afraid of climbing the ladder haha. Fortunately, there were plenty of other beds available for us. We enjoyed our weekend and would stay here again!

Summary: This was our second time on a mom’s winter getaway to this location. We enjoyed the views, the fireplace, and the fully equipped kitchen. The very large kitchen table makes it accessible for foodies to gather and share gourmet recipes and meals. We love Lion Downe!

Summary: We stayed over a particularly cold week in January and had the huge beautiful fireplace going the entire time. It felt magical to have the crackle and the warmth of the fire. We absolutely hope to be back again!

Summary: This is our second time staying at the Lion Downe Cabin, and we hope to return for a third visit. The outdoor hot tub in winter is "the bomb." Wonderful to sit outside in the cool, crisp air, looking at the stars from a nice warm jetted tub. Everything worked correctly. Even though we were there in winter, the walkway is clear (sanded and salted). The cabin was warm and cozy. Comfortable beds. We saw several eagles, a few deer, and quite a few ice fishing tents on the lake. The cabin is about a 15 minute drive to the nearest restauarant (The Outpost), which was fast, friendly, efficient, and served wonderful food. The only challenge we encountered was some fog, but if you have gps or some decent google maps you can navigate through that. Will definitely return if given the opportunity.

Summary: My girlfriends and I had a fantastic time at Lion Downe. We loved the unique design, stunning views, and the hot tub. The thoughtful gesture of providing wine, cider, coffee, and spices was a welcome addition! My friends couldn’t stop raving about how cool and unique your home is! Seeing photos of tulips blooming along the walkway has us eager to return in the spring or summer to enjoy the downstairs porch, warmer weather and the woods. Thank you again for opening up your amazing home to visitors. Our time here made my 40th birthday celebration extra special—thank you! We look forward to returning in the future!
