"Overall nice, quaint place. Quiet, peaceful location. Beds/mattresses need to be updated. Would benefit from more comfortable seating (ie larger couch) in the main area. Had a wonderful, delicious meal from local establishment (Dunmire’s), highly recommend it."

HOT TUB Luxury Cabin on Mississippi River, Dock, Pool Table, Fishing, Fire Pits
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (10)
"We rented this house for a Bachelorette Gathering. We had 6 ladies celebrating altogether. Typically, pics look better than the real thing, but in this case, the opposite was true! It was better than the photos. Such a perfect space! Lots of rooms and beds; enough bathrooms even. Everything was clean and perfectly made up. All utensil and utility drawers were well labeled and made everything really easy to find. Alexandra was very helpful with all of our questions and concerns with the hot tub,...

"We absolutely adored this property! The property and cabin were clean and stocked as promised. Location was perfect, literally feet from the water. Dock was large and sufficient to dock boat and support lots of beach play. The other cabin owners nearby were friendly and respectful. Couldn't have asked for better! We even said upon arrival that if we were to buy a cabin, this place would be exactly what we'd want, and we'd probably end up living in it year round!"

"The cabin was better than the listing! Kitchen is huge, with an amazing amount of cabinet and counter space. Love the island, and up to date appliances!! Lots of living space. Bedrooms were comfy and the loft is such a plus, my grandson loved the birds eye view of the inside;). We were visited by turkeys, and squirrels. Fire pit and patio were much appreciated! Enjoy walking the property and took a short trip to wander the shores of the Mississippi River at the French Access. Will definitely...

"We had a very relaxing getaway at this property. The setting was perfect for some much needed downtime, and yet still so close to anything you could want or need! The house was clean and cozy, but could do with a little updating and repair. We would love to go back and bring a larger group/family instead of our little trio.Thanks for the perfect MEA getaway!"

Even though we were only there for two nights, we definitely felt relaxed and very comfortable in this fantastic property. The host was also very helpful and quick to respond with questions that we had. The neighborhood is also very nice with brand new paved roads, and plenty of space to take walks. We have...

"Great stay at this property! Easy to find with plenty of parking. 2 kitchens, 5 bedrooms, 2 bath, 2 living rooms, huge patio, ginormous lawn made this a perfect spot for my sister's bachelorette party. We rented a pontoon for the afternoon from right next door then had dinner at the bar/restaurant. This meant we didn't have to drive anywhere all weekend which was great. The property manager is a local who can give you tips and recommendations for whatever you need. It does seem possibly a newer...
