The house was so comfortable for our whole family. What a great home overlooking the city and Mississippi River. If we’re staying in Dubuque in the future with a couple families again, I’d stay here in a heartbeat.

Beautiful historic home with great views

We had a great weekend in Dubuque for a friends getaway! The house was clean and well stocked and had comfortable beds and a beautiful view! Lots of historic charm! Be prepared for stairs as documented in the listing but it’s worth it.

Home away from home

We had a group of 10 that came from Texas for a wedding. We needed a big enough place for us all. It is a beautiful house with a fantastically beautiful view of Dubuque. We will come and stay again.
