About this property
New Rental! Kid Friendly Bluff House with incredible Mississippi River Views!
Enjoy breathtaking views of the Mississippi River while you relax, get cozy, and recharge in this newly decorated modern-rustic cabin situated high on the bluffs above the Mississippi River. Whether it is a family vacation, a girls/guys weekend, or a couples getaway you will enjoy the "Bluff House" inside and out. Take in the views with coffee on the deck in the mornings or sitting around a campfire on the large paved patio with a cold beverage of choice in the afternoon/evenings. There is never a shortage of things to see, whether it is boats and barges going by on the river, trains passing by on the tracks, or vehicles slowly moving by on the highway below.
Plenty of beds to accommodate a group or large family. (1 king, 2 queens, 2 twins)
Brand new outdoor playground, sandbox and zip-line to entertain the kids for hours! Inside we have an indoor kid's play space and toys in the loft to accommodate families with younger children. We also have a pack and play crib for babies.
Our patio has a large fire pit, (wood provided) fire starter, plenty of chairs, and an outdoor cooler. (located in the utility room)
A large farmhouse kitchen table, brand new granite kitchen countertops, a brand new gas oven/stove, and an outdoor gas grill will give you all the space you need to stay in, cook, and enjoy meals together. Propane is provided for the grill with an extra tank in the event you run out.
A new sectional couch with an open concept floor plan extends the kitchen space to the living room and also includes a smart TV. Watch your favorite team, sitcom, movie, or whatever you are in the mood for!
Our high-speed internet can accommodate zoom meetings, TVs, multiple phones, or whatever you may need to “plugin.”
Second to the last house on a dead-end lane, not for from LaCrosse (WI), Lansing (IA), Viroqua (WI).
Bring your UTV and explore Vernon and Crawford counties, or your boat, kayaks, jet skis and explore the mighty Mississippi!
If trout fishing is your aim you should also check out some of the finest coldwater trout streams anywhere: Lansing Clear Creek at Clear Creek Park (1972 South Road on the west edge of town); Wexford Creek (1416 Great River Road) and the French Creek Wildlife Area to name a few. Check with the DNR to find which area streams are stocked on a regular basis.
There is a gas station just down the hill for misc odds and ends, there are local bars for food and drinks. Hit up the Great River Roadhouse for drinks and the best pizza around! If you need groceries or other dining just cruise across the river to Lansing, Iowa and you are certain to find everything you need and some you don’t.
If you are looking for a different property, please check out our listing across the river in Lansing, Iowa. Listing #7556345

About the host
Hosted by Joe and Ashley
This is a family owned and operated rental, we also have another listing across the river in Lansing, Iowa. We also have a second home 1/4 mile away from this rental in De Soto. Listing number 2678364 We have enjoyed the process and enjoyed sharing our home with others so we decided to make another purchase on this home.
Our Lansing property listing number is 7556345

Why they chose this property
We chose this property because it was a ‘diamond in the rough’ and we saw what kind of potential it had. After numerous hours of cleaning up the landscape, we were able to open up the view and see the Mississippi River! My wife Ashley put her touch on the inside to add to the breathtaking view, and we now have a first-class property!
