Paula and Aaron were great hosts. We had all the essentials we needed. They responded to questions quickly. Thank you for the treats! Hope to stay with you on our next visit to LaCrosse.
This was my third visit to this beautiful property. The apartment is comfortable and well equipped and has a nice patio with stunning views of the river. Easy drive to shopping and restaurants as well as hiking and biking trails. I’ll be back!
A well appointed studio with everything anyone would need for a quiet getaway. Very gracious hosts that made sure you had a comfortable stay. I will be back!

I would stay here again! Cozy but very comfortable space
Cozy, clean, and a beautiful view. This is our 3rd time staying at this property. Very convenient location for our stay because we love being on the water. Paula is a great host.
Overall great space with excellent hosts. We would 100% stay here again and highly recommend. Just 15-20 minutes from La Crosse with an amazing view of the Mississippi.
The apartment is nicely furnished with attention to details that really make it a wonderful place to stay. Beds and pillows are very comfortable. Beautiful view of the Mississippi River. Nice and quiet neighborhood. Communication with the owners is quick and easy. Would definitely stay here again.
Perfect location for my husband and I. Very clean!! Comfortable beds!! Hope to stay there again next year!!

About the host
Hosted by Paula and Aaron Augedahl
We built our new home in 2017 with the intent to leave a bonus room over the garage empty for whomever bought the house when we were done with it (years from now hopefully). But we decided to finish it off ourselves and use it as a rental since our town, Brownsville MN, does not have housing options available though there is quite a bit of tourism here. The until has been in operation as a rental through another site since May 31 and has been super busy all summer. We recently discovered Homeaway, though most of our guests come to us from the other site.
Why they chose this property
People who stay with us rave about how much they love the apartment. It is quite new so very fresh and clean. We went with flooring and furniture that isn't prone to collecting dirt/allergens, which has been helpful to guests with such sensitivities. It is very comfortable with room to move and though it's a studio apartment, the bedroom area is separate from the living room area. There are two queen sized beds but also plenty of floor space and reclining couch for additional sleepers, should it be needed. The full kitchen is supplied with my kitchen accessories that you frequently use (microwave, stove, fridge, toaster, blender, pancake griddle, etc). You can eat out or cook in. My guests tell me they appreciate the nice thick towels and comfy blankets that are available in the unit. The bathroom has shampoo/conditioner/soaps that you need along with a hair dryer. (In case anyone on vacation actually does this, there is an iron and board available for that lovely task.) We have free wifi and smart TV streaming video. If you are hauling a boat with you, we have room for you to park this outside of our house.
What makes this property unique
The simple beauty of our area is reason enough to come here. You will see much of Mother Nature's beauty right from the location of this apartment, but yet you are within 15 minutes of a city that is about 55k people and has most amenities you can think of. You have convenient access to city and country.
