Loved our time staying at this house for a weekend! In town for basketball tournaments, and enjoyed being able to have some quiet downtime in between games.
Owners were amazing and very helpful with the stay!
Lovely house, in a great location. We were attending a wedding and reception at a nearby venue, this house was perfect for our group. Host communication was great and the property is very clean.
This was a perfect setting for our trip on the Riverboat Twilight, docked in LeClaire. The host was very easy to work with, met us upon arrival (they live next door) and had great suggestions for meals. The house is clean, with great beds and rooms, and well stocked. We were sorry to have to leave.
Very cute inviting home, lots of space and very clean. The outside had lots of space and the views of the Mississippi was nice, close to everything we wanted to see and do. The owners were very nice and helpful, would be our first pick to stay there again.
This beautiful guesthouse was such a perfect place for my family to stay while traveling to LeClaire for a family graduation. The house was charming, very clean and stocked with everything you could need. We really enjoyed the gorgeous yard and the views. The hosts could not have been more inviting and helpful! We had a wonderful time and will definitely stay here again when we come back!
We had a wonderful stay. There were 5 adults - 3 with developmental disabilities - and the 4 bedrooms and 2 baths worked perfectly for our needs. The owners were very welcoming and helpful.
We stayed for 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed the property. It was located close to the wedding we were there to attend which made things easy for us. The hosts were friendly and very helpful, especially when my husband had some special needs..
Great house for our family. Stairs may make it tricky for families with young walkers but we were able to make it work for us. Beautiful garden.. The whole property was a real respite for us during our vacation.
The location was great for our purposes. Very close to the Le Claire downtown area. The owner lives right next door and is very nice! The outdoor area was peaceful and beautiful. Being close to the river there are a lot of bugs but once inside you're fine. We slept well on the many beds and there were portable fans available. We love white noise. We'd be happy to stay again.
Clean and spacious house with modern amenities, a nice yard with a flower garden, and a view of the river. Conveniently located just a few minutes from downtown LeClair. Our friendly and accommodating hosts made us feel welcome.
The perfectly well appointed house with everything we needed and a great floor plan for a VRBO. The exterior of the house had a ton of gorgeous flowers and landscaping making the indoor and outdoor spaces perfect to relax in between sightseeing. Conveniently located just two turns and two minutes from lovely downtown Le Claire. And the host was extremely friendly and kind. Definitely recommend this property!
We came here for the week to take a 2 day trip on the Mississippi River. The boat trip was canceled due to high water, but we found other things to do. We still had a good get away!
Karen was an awesome host whom we now call friend. Her attention to detail & Racoon decor made this a fun stay w/ everything we needed & more. The king bed was very comfortable. The location above the Mississippi and all the gardens provided a beautiful location. We enjoyed seeing all the wildlife. Le Claire is a pretty river town with an interesting museum & River trips. I 80 affords accessibility. We hope to return in the future.
We had a great experience from booking all the way through check out. Shawn and Karen were exceptionally nice and prompt with answering any questions we had. The property itself was amazing and super cute with the raccoon theme and the story behind it. The house had everything we needed and was well kept along with the outdoor spaces. It is in a super convienient location as well. We definitely plan to stay here again in the future when we return to visit family in that area!
The house and grounds are beautiful.
Karen, our host, was welcoming and very helpful and gave us a tour of the house when we arrived. She kept in contact during our stay and gave us helpful information regarding restaurants and sites.
The house is beautiful and we lacked for nothing.
The raccoon house is a gem and I know we will be back.
Clean, organized, accommodating. Perfect fit for what we were looking for as four adults and two softball players were in the area for weekend softball tournament. Nice to be able to come back and relax after/between games. The house had everything we needed. Will book in the future.
