Great Cozy Location

Lovely place to stay for the price. Shower was finicky and wifi network wasn’t defined or maybe password was inaccurate. Don’t stay here if you need to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. If you stay in the upstairs bedrooms, it’s a trek.

Perfect!

This home was wonderful in every way- from a perfectly appointed kitchen, great decor, fantastic linens, a private patio, enclosed front porch and even a fire pit in the backyard! The hostess thought of EVERYTHING! We can’t wait to return and stay again!

Very nice little house, super clean, great people

This is a small house with one bedroom downstairs and an attic bedroom. We are both over 70 years old and the stairs to the attic were a minor challenge. The home is immaculate and communication was perfect. Would not hesitate to stay there again

Such a cute place!

The Tusen Takk house was adorable! It was clean, cozy, and decorated and renovated so beautifully! Our hosts were also very easy to work with and very responsive to our needs. We were in town for a funeral and it was so nice to be able to stay together here. Decorah is such a beautiful town, we only wished we could have stayed longer! We'll be back and highly recommending Tusen Takk to our family and friends
