Rustic Cabin Home, Waterfall, Family Getaway, Corporate Party, Weddings

Updated 6 -20 -2024 (please read all info below, thank you)

This is a rustic cabin type home built in 1850. It sits on a wooded 1 acre lot. In the home: the first floor master bedroom has a King Bed with fresh 700 ct linen and new paint, it has a window AC, a 42" TV and 300 DVDs. You also have access to the kitchen, the front porch and dining room study with futon. This is also a nice cozy room for an air mattress. The large wooden sun porch has a 42" TV, study table/desk, old chair seating and window AC (ok for an air mattress as well).

The remodeled upstairs bedroom has a nice comfy Queen bed and has a beautiful view of the Mississippi River valley and historic downtown East Dubuque. It has new carpet, new paint, a small closet, TV with DVD player., microwave and mini-fridge with freezer and a window unit AC.

Downstairs in the remodeled basement there is cozy very quiet room, with 42" TV and DVD, great for movies or gaming. This room has a futon and a single bed. Sleeping up to 3, or more if you have kids and blow up mattress. We have one new and comfy pillowtop blow up mattress available.

The backyard has a large 22' outdoor movie screen, a large waterfall feature with a 8' x 8f' deep pond (not for swimming, but some dip in it). The backyard also has a 35' stage, stone fire pit, seating, and woods overlooking the great Mississippi River valley. You may hike the trails to scenic Gramercy Park, this park has new pavilions, restrooms, river overlooks, hiking trails, and new playground equipment. Call city hall to book the main pavilion.

Pitching a tent in the yard is permitted but it must be set up after 6pm and taken down by 9am each day so it doesn't hurt the grass.

All areas are clean and well kept as shown in photos! And bug free!

Yes we allow pets 15.00 per pet.

* Set up of the outdoor 22' movie screen 50.00 (private use only)

* Use of the waterfall for professional photos: 150.00 per 2hr photo shoot (includes filling the pond to minimum level, 35.00).

Note: The hosts/caretaker will be staying on the adjoining 1/2 acre property where a 35' travel trailer is located, this area is secluded by a 6 foot privacy fence, as shown in the property photos. Note: grassy lot and long wooden fence.

Guests may park in the driveway or in front of the home.

VRBO guests are responsible for cleaning up the yard after using it, cleaning by host only includes the basic duties in the home such as washing bedding and towels, sweeping floors etc. If the guests use dishes they should wash them.

Stay
Our stay was cut short due to the weather. The location was good for going to Galena and around Dubuque. Were allowed to drop off our personal items early which was nice. Sad the hot tub had leak we were looking forward to using. The bed main floor was comfortable. My daughter stated upstairs was not and she didnt get a lot of sleep.

Our Dubuque stay
We had a great time around the fire and enjoying the beautiful outdoors associated with this home. The house was the perfect size for our family and friends while we were away from home. There was plenty of firewood for the fire as well.

Quirky place with a great backyard
Cal was very responsive and friendly. The backyard was very nice and private. We really enjoyed hanging out by the bonfire at night. The house was comfortable and clean. Very cabin like. You can tell Cal takes a lot of pride in this home.

Unique
This is a cute place to stay with lots of possibilities especially during warmer weather. There were several older DVDs and TVs, otherwise there was no TV reception, which was not a big deal. The location was convenient but noisy due to traffic and trains. It would be a nice location for a private party so that friends and family could stay in the same location.

Weekend getaway
We had a great time staying at this house! Comfortable bed and tons of movies to watch. The waterfall and dipping pool was perfect for just getting in and relaxing. We had a fire every night in the fire pit and played music outside with his sweet setup. The house was just steps away from a bunch of great bars with late night food! Quick drive over the river and there’s a bunch to do in Iowa, restaurants, bars, museums! Then I beautiful drive down along the river and many places to hike and kayak! Would definitely stay here again!

Everything was Amazing. What a Perfect Party Venue!
All was clean and convenient. The beautiful live classical guitar music added a special touch to our celebration. The kitchen was delightfully expansive for our food preparation and storage. The waterfall was impressive and fun for everyone. We want to have all our parties here! The amazing accomodations far exceeded our expectations.

Cozy cabin!!
The home was just as advertised. It was very clean and nice. The wood inside the home gives it a cabin feel and smell! They had plenty of amenities for us to use. The waterfall feature is unbelievably awesome. I will definitely stay again when we return.
