Wildflower Cottage - Cute Home with Yard & Bonfire

Wildflower Cottage is a beautiful vacation home just a half mile from Lake Pepin. The home was recently remodeled with a modern retro feel, and is comfortable, modern and relaxing after a fun-filled day exploring nearby wineries, restaurants, or the Pepin Marina and beach, all just minutes away.

In addition to the lovely bedrooms and living room, there's a full kitchen if you'd like to cook on site, including a full compliment of pots, pans, bakeware, dishes, silverware, etc. Please note that the kitchen table has 6 seats and we also provide folding tables and chairs for groups larger than 6. We also provide dish soap, spices, oil and a small selection of tea and coffee. Bring your own coffee supplies, food, beverages, firewood, sunblock and mosquito repellant. We also provide towels for use in the home, soap, shampoo and conditioner and a full basket of beach towels for you to use during your stay. Enjoy our new EV charger for your convenience too!

Wildflower Cottage is a great place to stay for weddings, boating, touristing or working on the go with our provided high-speed wifi. We have additional vacation rentals in Pepin and Lake City as well, in case you have a particularly large group and would like to book parallel accommodations.

We're remodeling Wildflower Cottage this winter and by 1/1/25, we'll be offering the Cottage as two two-bedroom rentals - Primrose and Daisy Apartments! Primrose will contain the current upper floor and offer the existing two bedrooms with queen beds, full bathroom, living room and kitchen. Daisy Apartment will be on the lower floor and offer two bedrooms (queen or full beds), a 3/4 bathroom, a living room and full kitchen. In reference to the current pictures, the purple bedroom with a bunkbed will become a queen or full bedroom (removing one twin bed), the green bedroom will stay a queen or full bedroom, the blue bedroom will become the living room (removing two twin beds), and the yellow sitting room will become a cozy full kitchen with fridge, stove and built-in dining area. Daisy will offer a washer/dryer, and Primrose will not. When rented together as Wildflower Cottage after remodeling is complete in November or December 2024, these changes will be reflected.

Please reach out if you have any questions - we're here to help you have a wonderful visit in Pepin!

2 Family trip to Lake Pepin
We love Lake Pepin! Enjoyed pie, sailing and tubing. Location was great - quick walk to lake and pub. 5 rooms was great and teenage girl happy to have own space. Host alarm above fridge made it harder to relax but the wonderful fire pit helped. We spent 2 evenings around the fire. All of the lovely extras were great. Especially beach towels, beach toys and bag. Fun games too. Thanks Jill!

Wildflower Cottage
Wildflower cottage is a cute home in a nice quiet neighborhood. There was plenty of space to spread out or hang out together as a family in the big living room with seats for all of us. Lots of bedrooms and beds to accommodate our family. Kitchen was well equipped, however either a longer counter with more stools or a standard table and chairs for meals would have been helpful (we made the card table and chairs work). Downstairs bathroom was quite small for amount of people staying down there, but the upstairs bathroom was very nice. It was pretty warm in the downstairs for sleeping. It was a very hot weekend so we appreciated the A/C units and fan helped push cool air around upstairs. If the weather has been cooler we would have enjoyed the fire ring in the backyard. The grill was nice. The fenced in front yard with the big maple tree provided a lot of shade so grandkids could play and we could all enjoy time outside together in the evening. We enjoyed our time at the wildflower cottage and in nice, quiet Pepin. There were plenty of fun places to go to: beach at the lake, a park, restaurants/bars in Pepin and more within a short drive. Local people were super friendly. Property manager, Jill, was very responsive before, during and after our stay at wildflower cottage. Really appreciated that!

Wildflower Cottage
The Kitchen was nice and most bedrooms adequate. Upstairs bathroom adequate. Basement bathroom was extremely bad. Shower pretty much unusable. Toilet not good. If 2 bathrooms needed, this is not the house to rent. Everyone had to use the upstairs bathroom/shower, which was a problem. Way over the top on the listing of rules and camera's/microphones outside watching/listening to everything you do. Not comfortable to sit out there and have a fire or something for fear we were breaking some rule. Not going back to this one as it was not worth the over priced cost. Used many places and normally all very good. Guess sooner or later you run into a bad one.

Family 4th
We spent a very nice 4th of July as a family in Pepin. The house had plenty of space for everyone to have their own room and space. We are familiar with the area and were glad not to be super close to the train tracks but central enough to walk places. House is well stocked and the owner is available by text.

Not a welcoming situation
The house was clean, cozy, and comfortable. The giant "Call host alarm" and sound monitor with threats of extra fines and removal from property were troubling. The rental agreement explained all the ways we could be fined and I had to pay a separate security deposit outside of VRBO which was also concerning. We ended up spending minimal time in the unit because of these policies. Would not recommend.

Nice place!
Our family had a wonderful time at Wildflower Cottage. So many thoughtful touches throughout the cottage - from the practical to just plain fun board games and movies. Very handy location for Pepin visitors. Very quiet and peaceful. Great fire pit out back. We hope to stay again soon!

Merga H., Minneapolis/USA

The owner was very nice and friendly
It looks like the house was bout less than a year ago and converted into a rental but the future in the house so old and unattractive. Tons of left over paint stored under the sink and under stairway. Make unattractive. The second bathe was ver unacceptable. It is not really considered as a bath. Not enough supplies. There were no trash bags. We called the owner she brought the next morning but since there is one to replace we end up going to the store. Misleading information it says 6 miles from Lake City MN while you drive 25 miles.
