This was perfect for us sisters to gather and stay in one place to be able to share stories, laugh, gather around the fire pit and just relax!!! This property was close to everything downtown and walking/hiking trails. Showers were amazing and had a lot of pressure. The only downside for us, was not having curtains/blinds on all the windows downstairs; the grass was pretty long but a minor issue. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and definitely recommend this place.

Was a great location to start out daily drives to artists' studios and a wonderful place to land after the day was done.
Close to downtown Decorah. Recommend taking time to visit Vesterheim - The National Norwegian-American Museum and dining at Rubaiyat. We think you will enjoy both.

This is an absolutely lovely home to share with friends and family. It is comfortable, clean and has a warm and welcoming feel. Mattine is very responsive and has done a great job making this home feel inviting. If you and friends or family need a place to stay, near the college and not far from downtown Decorah, I highly recommend Mattine's farmhouse!

Fantastic location close to town! This house has four comfortable bedrooms, and a very nice roomy kitchen with eat-in dining area. We had plenty of room for our family to prep meals, play games and be together, plus we were only minutes from the Whippy Dip and other Decorah attractions.

The pictures make this look better than it is. The beds were just mattresses barely off the floor. We are in the hotel business, we know what guests expect for their beds. The beds were unacceptable in our opinion. Very disappointing and we stayed at a hotel after viewing the property.

College Visit
We had a fantastic stay! We were in town to see our son perform in the Luther College Christmas Program. It was our immediate family and both sets of in-laws (total of 8) staying at the house. The location couldn't have been more convenient as we were less than 5 minutes from the campus. The house was immaculate upon arrival and very comfortable. The host was only a text away and was quick to reply. Thank you for a great stay!

Wonderful stay
This property was perfect for our stay in Deborah. Mattine was very flexible in our requests for “extra”. There were cookies and a welcome note which was so sweet and started out the stay in a lovely way. The bed was very comfortable. I am so glad we chose this property and would do it again in a heartbeat.

The charming farmhouse was a great and convenient place to gather with college friends who had never been to Decorah. We wished we had more time to use the inviting yard. Instead we explored parks and shops and museums along with the Luther campus...all were minutes away. It would be interesting to know a bit more of the history of the farmstead. It was a relaxing and accommodating place to reconnect.
