About this property
Westview Retreat - 2 Bed 2 Bath home on the Mississippi River
This home is located on the Mississippi River and has an open floor plan with 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. It was once an earth home, which gives the home a cozy, cottage type feeling. The front of the home is floor to ceiling windows (with blinds) so you can enjoy the river view. Please note: our interior and exterior stairs are steep and because of the age and design of our home, we are not ADA accessible. Please be careful and watch your step! Entry is through the garage. Free parking is on site.

About the host
Hosted by Pam Walsh
Residents of Illinois, we love our small town, the ability to be away from it all but still close to everything, and the chance to welcome and introduce new friends to our little corner of the world.
Why they chose this property
On the banks of the Mississippi River, the views are constantly changing and always stunning. Surrounded by nature, there is aways wildlife to see and in the late fall until spring, the eagles come to nest and are spectacular to watch.
What makes this property unique
Steps from the water there is always something to see and do and sportsmen, bicyclists and hikers find it's the perfect spot to get away. Want to cozy up, drink coffee or cocktails and do nothing? We're a great place for that too!
