Upper Iowa River House
The property was one of the nicest we have stayed in. Very clean with plenty of towels and linens. It had an amazing view of the bluffs and the river. The hot tub was clean and warm. The only downside is the same that most rwntals have, they are not accesible easily for people with mobility issues or handicaps. Bathrooms are small and cramped woth low toilets, tall toilets would help improve that. Steps were a decent angle but could use better handrails. The 2 decks were so relaxing to sit and watch the river flow and see the brightly covered fall leaf bluffs waukon is 12 miles away and has a great source for groceries and eating. A hop skip and jump East and you are at the Mississippi. Drive to New Albin for great smoked meats and steaks for grilling. It is also home to the only meat vending machine I have ever seen. .

Birthday getaway
We spent my besties 40th birthday here for 3 nights. Owners weren’t very good at getting back to us about the check in process, kept us on our toes worried we weren’t going to have the code when we got there. Once I found the phone number, she responded right away! Which I was thankful because once we arrived we had zero service. The cabin is a great set up for hosting the 4 couples we had. The coffee pot was our next hurdle. It’s not the same as the one pictures. We had 1 single serve and a 5 cup brewer. The single serve didn’t even work, and the 5 cup was slower than molasses. I contacted Gabbi and she had one dropped off later that night, which ended up being another 5 cup coffee pot. With 8 adults drinking coffee it wasn’t very convenient, but we made do. We enjoyed the hot tub and the view of the river. We hoped to go kayaking but the rental place and just closed for the season. All in all, it’s a great place to stay. It seems like it could use some updating- some of the outlets didn’t work, or light switches. Happy to have the privacy though and we had amazing weather.

Cabin review
We had a very nice time. The cabin was clean and comfortable. The owner did not contact us on day of arrival until later in the evening (well past check in time) I had sent a few messages the day prior with no response and no directions on how to get into the property.

Beautiful spot
This was a great spot for anyone interested in convenient river access. As far as housekeeping, there was an evident deficit. Dust, toys, and garbage were found in corners of house. It was poorly cleaned and poorly maintained. Prescription medications was left in the unorganized kitched cupboards. Lack of adequate

Absolutely wonderful place!
Beautiful setting right on the Upper Iowa River. Very private. Very clean. This was a girl's trip (5 of us) and the sleeping arrangements were perfect. We are already talking about coming back. The only issue we had was no railing on the steps going into the house (even though it was only a few steps) and railing only on one side of the steps going to the basement. We had a couple people with mobility issues and had to be very careful. We strongly suggest getting railings in those 2 places. One of the ladies actually fell at the bottom of the basement steps. Luckily she did not get hurt. Aside from that, everything was perfect. We had fun watching the Baltimore Oriole in the trees as well as other birds and watching baby bunnies hopping around.

Relaxing
My husband and our 2 dogs found the cabin very relaxing. We were able to walk right out to the river & do some fishing. Our dogs had plenty of yard space to venture around. The hot tub was a nice touch at the end of the night. After the traffic calms down from the day, it is very peaceful and all you can hear is the nature. Everything was as described and we enjoyed our stay :)

Awesome place
This cabin is amazing. The scenery is perfect for a getaway. The river being right outside made it a nice view, good fishing, and we did a float right to the cabin. We will definitely stay here again.

Nice cabin
The cabin was really nice, but it was a little hard communicating with the property manager she didn’t always reply back. We couldn’t get the air-conditioning to work and I tried messaging and calling and never got a response back from the property manager. Luckily, there was a bedroom in the basement which was nice and cool for the whole trip other than that the cabin was really nice only other thing is that we never got any check-in information I had to call and figure out what was going on and how to do it . Would still recommend.

Girls getaway
This was a two bedroom cabin with hot tub near the river, to relax and laugh and tell stories. Additional beds in basement and 2nd floor loft. Plenty of couches. Seating for 5 on deck. You may want to bring bag chairs for more than 2 people to sit by the fire. Area is quiet but there is a highway directly across the river. Well equipped for cooking and coffee. Hosts were accommodating with a family emergency that required rescheduling. We had fun!

stay by the river
Easy to find with a nice location. It appears that this location is going to continue to get better and be able to host larger groups. The house offers a bunch of amenities such as a fire pit area, hot tub, and out door seating off the deck. Open concept on the main floor and lots of room in the basement. Overall good experience for our family of 9 (kids, parents, and grandparents) Manager was pretty quick to respond and meet requests.
