Cute stay near the historic Millwork District

Cute 2-bedroom accommodation near restaurants and downtown Dubuque. Nice coffeehouse downstairs-no noise from the business and good coffee. White Street is busy, but traffic wasn’t a bother with windows closed. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice Location

The property was close to several of the activities we were doing. It’s a nice, clean property. Parking took a little time to find due to the one way streets and where it is. It is across the street and in the previous block by a car lot but it does have signage. Owner communicates well. We would definitely stay again (but maybe pack a bit lighter due to the steps ).

great place to stay in Dubuque!

We really enjoyed this property. The views are amazing, we loved the window seat in the kitchen, it was very quiet, great coffeehouse right downstairs, and an easy walk to some good restaurants and shops. It's in the "millwork" district, so you can look out at some cool factory buildings, as well as city hall and the gorgeous houses on the bluff. Loved it!

Relaxing and enjoyable

Location was great. Restaurants and shops within walking distance. Coffee shop in the same building was the cherry on top. The street noise is loud for light sleepers like myself (husband and mother-in-law were not bothered). However found ear plugs in a drawer and slept great the next nights!

Hot tub heaven

Great place to stay as a central hub for visiting area small towns. The hot tub is cleaned for each new occupant, which was great. The apt was so comfy we were happy to binge a couple of shows instead of heading out when the weather didn’t cooperate. You do have to travel up steep stairs, so keep that in mind when packing! Great location above coffee shop and near 7 Hills and other restaurants!

Convenient location near Dubuque's Millwork District

This was our second stay in the Drake House: City View and we wouldn't hesitate to here stay again. The apartment is comfortable and conveniently located. There are stairs to negotiate with your luggage, but there's a nice deck with a view of the Millwork District at the back of the property. There were plenty of towels in the bathrooms. We didn't use the washer/dryer.

Great Iowa get away

Grew up in Iowa and left in 1985 for the military. This might have be the longest trip back since then. We flew into Cedar Rapids for our niece’s wedding. Then traveled to Dubuque with our son and grandson. We took in a horseback trail ride in Galena, walked through Maquoketa Caves State Park, took in the National Mississippi River Museum, and ventured out to the Field of Dreams movie site. We also took our Grandson to the Live Social all ages game room at the Q Casino. Afterwards the casino was nice to my wife and I. All of this was within 30 minutes of this property. It was clean; we used to clean beach front rentals for extra income 25 years ago, so we know a clean property when we see one. The hot tub was not available due to a cracked shell, but the owner provided fair compensation for this inconvenience. Highly recommend this property if visiting the area. We did stay at the casino a little too late one evening and Uber was not available, but there is a local cab company that provided quick and affordable transportation back to the property.

About the host

Hosted by Jenn Schuman

Host profile image
My husband and I are native Dubuquers. We came up with this idea after staying at a cozy vacation rental in La Jolla, CA. It sat on top of a small restaurant that served breakfast and lunch. My husband spotted this property and approached me with the idea, stating that if I wasn't 100% in he would just forget about it. Needless to say, I was 100% in and here we are! Ready to share our dream with you! We hope you will love it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We chose this property for two reasons. First, we both grew up in this area of Dubuque. Second, we love what Dubuque is doing for the downtown area and feel that the Millwork District will continue to grow and will be the place to go in Dubuque.

What makes this property unique

Being in the Millwork District of Dubuque is a huge advantage to our property. We are close to so many attractions, making your stay handy and convenient to whatever event or purpose you have to visit our beautiful city.
