Secluded Rustic + Modern Log Cabin with hot tub by Stream, luxury getaway
About this cabin rental
Situated in Iowa, this lovely cabin for $212 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. Walnut Creek Cabin, formerly known as the Rustic Retreat, is a secluded log cabin on a private stream located in the heart of the Driftless Area. The cabin has recently been renovated to welcome guests into a modern + rustic luxury getaway. The rustic details of the original log cabin have been preserved and reimagined to include an attractive modern design. During your stay, the serene landscapes of rolling hills, bubbling brooks and wildlife invite you to explore the 10 acres of land with nature walks or while sitting in the hot tub. There is also an outdoor fire pit, screened-in porch, and an indoor gas fireplace to make this your dream retreat. Experience nature and simple living without forgoing all the amenities. The cabin is located close to the scenic Mississippi River where you can enjoy water sports, fish, and watch spectacular sunsets. Nearby is the Rush Creek State Nature Preserve and also the Villa Louis in historic Prairie Du Chien. During wintertime, enjoy cross county skiing and snowmobiling. The Space: You will have access to the entire log cabin, which is located in Ferryville, WI. There is a private bedroom on the main level with a full bed and access to the washer/dryer in the closet. The upstairs loft has a queen bed, complete with a Saatva luxury mattress made with eco-responsible materials. There is also a daybed couch, that can convert into a queen-sized bed, and additional seating areas upstairs in the loft. The cabin is fully furnished and also offers Wi-Fi, cable TV and a land line (if you choose to use!) to ensure a comfortable and relaxing stay.

We stayed here over Christmas and had an absolutely amazing time. The cabin is in a beautiful setting with lots of land and privacy. The cabin itself is very cozy and has everything you need. From exploring the property to seeing hawks and deer from the hot tub to having a campfire to touring the Driftless area, we made memories that will last a lifetime. I would highly recommend staying here! Our dog loved the cabin too and didn't want to leave

I recently stayed here with my sister from Texas. We were exploring the Mississippi River area. We both enjoyed the secluded cabin. Sitting by the firepit in the evening, we were treated to the sight of many deer walking through the adjacent fields. Many new memories were made.

The perfect place for rest and relaxation. The cabin was clean when we arrived. The native wildflower landscaping is beautiful. We enjoyed watching hummingbirds and pollinators. A great spot for bird watching. We did outings every day but looked forward to coming back to our home away from home each evening. Overall great experience, and we would stay there again.

SUPER clean, beautiful stay! The pictures don't do it justice. This is glamping to the extreme- washer/dryer, dishwasher, AC, TV. We loved the bon fire pit. It's very secluded also and you are surrounded by nature!

This property is wonderful! Ten acres of peaceful green beauty to enjoy! Everything in the cabin was neat and clean with everything we needed for our stay. Loved the loft with a comfy bed and sunny reading area. The fire pit and screen porch with relaxing hot tub were perfect. Spent a lot of time in the bug free porch watching birds nesting and deer in the field. Very relaxing and private location. Eric was super responsive to questions and suggesting a source for fire wood! We will be back to relax and enjoy the driftless area again!

The cabin was just as beautiful as the photos, a perfect space for two of us. The location was more restful and peaceful than I could have imagined. We were we welcomed by a bubbling creek, bald eagle, great blue heron and fox! Every nook was cozily created with so much care. The kitchen was perfectly stocked. Everything was just perfect. We reached out once to the manager and he responded immediately. It was a wonderful retreat in a beautiful part of the Midwest. Thank you!!

We had a fabulous stay at the cabin! We were able to bring our dog and brought food to make so mostly hung out on the property, enjoyed the hot tub, and had a lovely quiet family vacation! The only thing I would say for those bringing infants - be careful of the stairs leading down from the loft! They are very steep so we opted to just stay on the bottom floor and had plenty of room! Didn’t want to risk carrying the baby up and down in the middle of the night! We had a great time relaxing and watching some of the great movies in the cabin :) thanks for a great stay!

This property was pleasing in every way! Private, stocked with anything you needed, beautifully decorated, awesome hot tub - very relaxing and enjoyable!! Ferryville had a couple of places to eat/drink - the views were stunning! Lansing was not far away and had fun shops and a couple of places to eat/drink as well. Nice people wherever we went. We will definitely check out the other properties available in the future. Thank you!

This is a gem of a spot - even in early March with gray skies and muddy roads, it was so warm and cozy! The house is beautiful and the hot tub is amazing! Would recommend to all! Plus, you can bring your dogs!!

This place is the best! Family trip with my husband, two boys and our dog. This was our third year in a row staying at Walnut Creek Cabin and hope to come back many more! Spent our time sledding, hiking around the creek and property, warming up in the hot tub, building puzzles, watching movies and relaxing in the most gorgeous thoughtfully decorated cabin. Always clean and comfy!

This cabin was so welcoming and relaxing. It was cozy but spacious enough for our family of four. The hot tub and fire ring were enjoyable added features. There were so many thoughtful amenities and little touches that really made the stay special.

We loved everything about this place. It was quaint and comfortable. Loved the hot tub and fireplace. It was a beautiful cabin, very clean and had even more conveniences than we thought. The land was breathtaking and we enjoyed our stay very much!

This was our second stay at a KPS rental near Ferryville and it was as superb as our first stay at The Pines two years ago. Everything was super clean (inside, the hot tub, the porch, the yard, etc.). Check-in and check-out are supremely easy. Eric does a fantastic job of making sure you have all the information you may need and promptly responding to questions while balancing that wonderfully with his guests’ privacy.
The Walnut Creek cabin completely lived up to and exceeded expectations. If you’re thinking about booking, just go for it - you won’t be disappointed. It feels secluded, cozy, and peaceful. It’s clear the hosts are super thoughtful and they care about the details. Which makes the stay all the more relaxing and sets their rental above the rest. We already can’t wait until we can make a return trip!

We loved our time at the Walnut Creek Cabin! It was beautiful, well equipped with everything you could need and the host, Eric, was wonderful! We are already planning our next trip and would love to make this an annual tradition. Couldn’t recommend this place enough, you won’t be disappointed! - Hayley & Thomas

Amazing amenities, absolutely beautiful location, and super modern interior. We had such a relaxing time and did not want to leave!! Only few gripes were the amount of wasps that kept coming into the screened in porch and the cleanliness/operation of the hot tub - it would have been nice to have instructions since some of the keys have worn off - I ended up googling the manual. But overall amazing place and would highly recommend.

We loved the cabin like most reviewers:) Such a cozy and beautiful atmosphere, with some luxury touches. The property is just spectacular and totally secluded. We had a perfect weekend.

We could hardly believe our luck when we pulled into the driveway--what a gem!! The photos of the property do not do this place justice; we felt like we had our own private park. Bonus: it's dog-friendly! The interior of the cabin was comfortable, luxurious, and well-appointed. Much thought was put into the comfort of guests!
We enjoyed many of our meals in the screened-in porch, watching hummingbirds and goldfinches flitting about the coneflowers and phlox. (Kudos to the gardener!) We spent every evening around the fire pit, listening to the crickets and stream; as the sun set, we were joined by a family of deer & dozens of dragonflies feasting in the open areas beyond the stream. (Bring your binoculars--this was an unexpected delight!) I downloaded the Merlin Bird ID app because we were curious about the many different birdsongs we were hearing: song sparrows, wood thrushes, whippoorwills, red-headed woodpeckers, Eastern Wood Peewees--I totally geeked out on this. :) We also saw shooting stars nearly every night.
The hot tub was a wonderful place to unwind after a day of hiking and sightseeing. There is a nice selection of DVDs and games for a rainy day, and Eric was an attentive and helpful host. If you love nature but also want a bit of comfort and luxury on your vacation, I highly, highly recommend.

Fantastic experience! The fire pit is just what you want. You hear the creek while you relax. We enjoyed the screened in porch wand the hot tub despite the summer humidity. Inside, we relaxed with board games around the table. Great all around.

Phenomenal Getaway
I have never stayed at a property or any type of lodging that was that perfect. Every aspect of the cabin was a 12/10. All the furniture, all the hygiene products, the fire place, the layout, the nook, the hot tub, it was beyond perfect. It was great and so so soooo cozy for two people. I will say it is a big change for two city boys, and quite secluded, but there was a grocery store less than 15 minutes away, and we never had a reason to leave otherwise! I have zero critiques, it was just perfect.

Sisters Trip
When we walked into the cabin we all were in awe. It was more beautiful in person. We loved our stay here. We would spend the days hiking and the evenings in the hot tub. Eric was wonderful with communication and even came out right away when we couldn’t get the hot tub working and got it up and running quickly. (It was just a tripped breaker). Our sisters trips was amazing and we’d definitely come back!
