My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Hillside camper. It was fully furnished with towels, cookware, dishware, flatware, shampoo/soaps, firewood and starters. The bed was extremely comfortable. A/C worked better than we needed! TV and radio were on when we arrived, but soon turned off so we could enjoy the ‘main attraction’ of this location… the incredible waterfall and babbling brook not 30yds from camper door. We sipped our coffee while sitting on the bench overlooking the falls each morning. It was the most idyllic way to start our day.Location is super easy to find, and easy/short drive to Decorah for dining, shopping, hiking (which we did a lot of).Uncle John and Rose were attentive and demonstrated how much they love sharing this treasure with others.
Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2026
