Enjoyed our stay at “The Depot”

We love Guttenburg but this particular trip was for a fishing tournament for our boys. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. It’s in a great location only 3-4 minutes to the river whether you’re using the main boat ramp or the north boat ramp, close to the grocery store, gas stations, restaurants and downtown.. the beds were comfy as was the furniture. No complaints about anything. Some have mentioned the trains which didn’t bother us. We will definitely be staying here again! Thank you for a great stay!

Property is very clean and updated. Nice central location. Very close to train tracks, but you hear them everywhere in Guttenberg so not a big deal. Great communication with owner.

Sister weekend

Cute little property with ample parking. Updated & very clean. The house had everything we needed. Plus good water pressure in the shower. Beds were comfortable too. The trains were loud but we got used to it by the 2nd night & we could not get internet in the room with twin beds. Overall, a good experience & we would definitely consider staying again.

Convenient location & clean!

Had several options for fun things to do close by. Place was spotless! ONLY complaint (that can't be controlled by the owners anyway) is the train tracks. We decided to stay here even knowing about the tracks but unfortunately we learned we're not the people to sleep through them! Beds were very comfortable and had no problems with cooking all weekend.

Weekend getaway

Everything was exactly as described or pictured. All was very clean and well maintained. The layout and space was very well designed and more than comfortable for the two of us, and easily would have accommodated a family of four. The proximity to the railroad was no big deal. I rather enjoyed the trains that passed. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again if we were to return to the area. A big thank you to the host.

A Remodeled Train Depot-How Cool is That?!

OMG what a perfect little home! I could live here. The inside was decorated and appointed perfectly. The ONLY thing I looked for and could not find were coasters! There is a Keurig coffee machine, complete with K-cups and creamer in the beautiful kitchen. Everything inside is brand new and in pristine shape. The decor is just right. Not too many pictures or knickknacks. However, the owner has a great sense of humor. There are a few funny canvas pictures in each room. There is also proof in a kitchen cupboard, but I won’t spoil any surprises! The three TV’s are brand new with streaming capabilities. The Wi-Fi was strong and there were many, many DVD’s to watch and games to play. The home includes a brand new washer and dryer as well! We were in walking distance of a Subway and a Kwik Star gas station for anything we needed in a pinch. Jeff was right there was so much to do with a very small radius. The town of Guttenberg was was charming and Lock 10 was busy and interesting. Nearby McGregor has a lot to see and do as well. There are good restaurants, such as Latino’s as well as shops and antique stores. We went to every large park in the area including Pike’s Peak State Park, Effigy Mounds National Monument and Wyalusing State Park in WI-as well as a few county parks in between.. The river areas are gorgeous and we took so many pictures which was the main reason for out trip. I would not be thorough in my review if I did not add that if train noises are not your thing at night you may need to reconsider, as the tracks are 20’ or so from the second bedroom and it can be very loud. I do wish I could have found a short history of the train depot as it was in Guttenberg’s history somewhere. I am hoping to return here with a friend in the future, so I would definitely recommend this listing!

Second Time Stay

This property is awesome. It was our second time here and it was just as great as the first time a few years ago. The depot has everything one would need. It is well appointed, clean and close to so many parks and nature preserves, which is what we love about the Guttenburg area.The depot has 3 TVs and soon, will have a 4th in the patio area. It has a washer and dryer, a well appointed kitchen, a large bathroom and two nice size bedrooms. Just a note, there is no dishwasher-not a problem for me. Also, bring your own hair dryer if you need one. Otherwise, it has everything! Bar-b-cue tools, games, DVD movies, even a video golf game on the porch. Guttenburg itself has a lot to see, especially where the barges travel the Mississippi. Even Dubuque is close enough or a visit.Jeff Pregler is great to work with and is quick to answer a text. He keeps the rental price reasonable and the propery in great condition.If you are going hiking, fishing, or just sight seeing in this area, "The Depot" should be your choice.But remember, you must like trains! I do.what we love to visit

Very Good Choice for a Guttenberg Stay

Fishing Trip

Great spot for the guys to crash after fishing every day. Accommodations worked out great. We’ll definitely stay again, but will probably bring a fan or two for a little background noise to help drown out the train a bit… just forgot to throw them in this time. Great price for a nice place:)

Description is 100% accurate

It's named the Depot and clearly shows it is next to the train tracks. At $85 a night, it was a deal. You just have a few trains going by that will shake the house, but I was able to wave at the conductor from my bed. Beds were comfy. Extra linens in closet. Plenty of room to sprawl. Used grill and fire pit with no problems. Absolutely would stay again! Plenty of parking. Close to the River walk.
