House was perfect. Great updates to entire home. Creaky stairs and doors reminded us of our childhood home, in a good way. Beds were comfy. Plenty of room for all of us.

We really enjoyed the house and especially the fact that the sheets and towels were cotton and not microfiber. Even though it is an older home the air conditioning was excellent and reached the upstairs bedroom. We were grateful for the coffee and other groceries on hand since we arrived pretty late on Friday night. Thank you

We took a few days' vacation to the Driftless area. We have six children and needed a house conveniently located with plenty of space to relax after a day of being out and about. This house is nicely updated while still retaining the charm of an older house. The mattresses were comfortable. The space fit us well. Across the street, the Roman Catholic church has a basketball court in the parking lot. We enjoyed that in the evenings and the tennis courts that the town has further south in the town. I would be happy to stay here again!
