Our lower level stays very cool and is very well insulated. The upper level gets blasted by the hot sun all morning. We recommend to leave the door to the basement open to allow cold air to come up by, be sure vents are open upstairs, and be sure vents in basement are closed. We also provide a few fans to use if you would like.
Please note that railroad tracks run by the home. About one train and a few barges pass by at night. We have provided disposable earplugs for your convenience.
The home utilizes a septic system and is very sensitive to anything other than the provided toilet paper being flushed. Anything besides toilet paper must be put in the trash. Only water can go down the drains, any grease needs to be thrown away in the garbage (Poor hot grease into a can, let it cool, and then dispose of it.). If the pump gets clogged from your stay we will charge you the fee to have it fixed.
A 4WD vehicle is needed to manage the lane and driveway if there is snow on the ground, other vehicles will be fine when there is no snow. Please, know the home is down a .25 mile gravel lane that we re-graveled in 2021. There is parking for 6 vehicles, do not drive/park on our grass.

Summary: We chose this location because of the spacious accommodations and the views, it did not disappoint. The views are spectacular and exceeded our expectations. There were 11 of us, our 87 year old Mom down to our 2 year old great niece. We had more than enough room for everyone. We were very satisfied with what is provided there, especially plenty of bath towels as well as plenty kitchen towels and dish clothes. I always bring extra paper products, dishwasher and dish soap, towels, etc... when going to a rental and did not need any of them. The house is very well stocked. It is so quiet and private, we could not have been happier. I also want to mention that communication was 5 Star! We had to make multiple changes and had multiple questions and she was always very quick to respond, very thorough and very friendly. Would definitely stay there again if we need a large place in the area!

Summary: This rental worked very well for our family. Spacious, clean and views were beautiful. The town of Guttenberg was lovely as well. We went to the Farmers Market and a food truck at the local brewery. Shops were varied, and local coffee houses a must stop!

Summary: Stayed here with family when Grandson was playing in Field of Dreams tourney. Plenty of space, well stocked kitchen and a pretty setting on the rivers edge. A little crazy to get to and the trains going by were a little loud but we all said we would stay here again. Loved the wildlife! Owner was great about answering questions and giving us good directions. Perfect weekend.

Summary: Great open spaces to hang out with my 5 siblings. Great kitchen to cook meals together but also enjoyed a couple meals in nearby Guttenberg. A grill was advertised and we'd planned on that, but then learned it was still locked in the garage from winter storage so we had to alter a couple dinner plans. At least the host got back to me right away when we couldn't find the grill so we could stop looking for it. Short drive for a day trip to Pikes Peak and Effigy Mounds for hikes and amazing scenery. Good fishing near the house, as well as below the dam in Guttenberg, and also trout fishing not far away at Sny Magill Creek. Grocery store in town, Benders, had everything we forgot to bring ;-) Really enjoyed watching passing barges so close, as well as the trains going by. The train whistle was not nearly as loud as I thought it was going to be. The road to the house is a bit sketchy being so near the train tracks, but we got used to that. Would definately go back t this lovely property!

Summary: We all had a great time, beautiful view, comfortably slept 16 people. We were able to bring two boats and put them in the water at the ramp just below the house. The boats were beached during our stay and had no issues. The older kids had a blast catching crawdads and minnows, they fished by the boat ramp and out on the boats. We took the kids to the pool in Dyersville one day and they had a great time. (The Guttenberg pool had closed due to broken glass in the pool.) Wonderful memories made!

Summary: Lots of room and great views. Trains and boats as mentioned in the description, which can be noisy, but were really enjoyed by the kids. We got to watch a barge go through lock and dam 10 in Guttenberg, drive back to the house and watch it go by on the river, pretty neat!
