About this property
The Nest: Beautiful Apartment Style Lodging In The Heart Of Downtown Decorah.
This furnished one bedroom, one bath apartment is located in the middle of downtown Decorah. The Nest provides easy access to all of Decorah’s wonderful downtown shops and restaurants and there are many local parks within walking or biking distance. The west facing family area is a large open room with beautiful high ceilings and a wonderful view of the County Courthouse. The Nest was redone with the homey feel of Magpie Coffeehouse in mind. The floors are the original over 100 year old fir floors, exposed brick, and a comfortable couch. The dine-in kitchen makes it easy to prepare dinner and for entertaining during your visit. The bedroom has a comfortable queen bed and large lit closet. In addition to the bedroom, there are two twin beds available built loft style in the main room and a fold out twin bed in the ottoman. The large bathroom has a fabulous shower with your choice of two wonderful shower heads. There is an enclosed back porch, perfect for relaxing with friends or reading a book. A full-size washer and dryer is supplied for you laundry needs. Electric charging station for our guests with electric cars and electric bicycles available for rent upon request.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Owner/Manager
The nest is owned by the Ritner family. Rod and his daughter Kelsey renovated it in 2010. There are a lot of really interesting aspects to the nest. The Ritner's believe in recycling and reusing as much as possible. The front door and the two closet doors in the bedroom were recycled from Eastside school demolition. The school door numbers are still on the door. The counter in the kitchen was recycled form the decorah bowling alley floor.
Why they chose this property
This property is very unique in the recycle reuse. It has a new feel along with the incorporation of old items. New appliances, plenty of room for guests and even a old fashioned bath tub in the living room. And a great view of the court house from the bay window. We've been told by many guests it's their favorite place to stay in Decorah.
What makes this property unique
Electric car charging and bike rentals available to nest customers.
