Quaint and comfy!

Absolutely loved this historic cottage. Oozing with charm! Kathryn has created such an inviting get-away. We were in town for a family Christmas and needed a few extra beds and a quiet space for a break from the exuberance of 10 grandkids. Perfect peacefulness to be found at this cottage. Just a heads-up to any wanting to stay here; there are several small steps throughout the cottage in addition to the spiral staircase, all very well marked and lit, but still a word of caution for some. We surely hope to be back, and the teenage granddaughters hope to join us next time!

Relaxing Girls Weekend

My friends and I stayed here to enjoy some time away and celebrate a bachelorette party. We loved our stay at this adorable house. The tiki bar was a nice surprise and the highlight of our stay! We were able to walk to downtown for drinks in the morning and evening. Just know the hot tub mentioned is in one of the bathrooms not outside, but suggest they get one as it has the perfect setting for one and should get a hammock enjoy perfect fall days. We had a great time!

Cottage in LeClaire, IA

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Everything was pretty much as shown in the photos online. The river views were great. There was a lot of train traffic along the river but it was really not an issue for us. There were several nice decks and outdoor seating options, however, the decks and patio furniture had not been cleaned in quite awhile. We did enjoy sitting in the little screened porch on the second floor and that was very clean. Overall, a nice stay.

Adorable cottage!

The cottage was the perfect place for me to get away from distractions and get some writing done! From the variety of outdoor seating to the cozy indoor space, it was a great setup. And the river view was so pretty! I even got to see a beautiful rainbow over the Mississippi after a storm. The only improvement that could be made is the master bedroom bed. It was only a full size which was very tight for the night my husband was able to be there. Granted, we are used to a king, but a full was a whole lot smaller than we like. We would not have been able to do another night in that bed. By myself it was just fine. All in all, it was a wonderful place to stay! I loved it!

My 19 year old daughter and I were coming to the area for a Blake Shelton concert and wanted to stay in LeClaire. The house was perfect, super relaxing and exactly what was needed.

River view

Quaint, cute and very clean and well appointed. Excellent view of the Mississippi River from various vantage points both inside and outside. Two en-suite bath rooms and a powder room. One glitch was that the entrance code that was provided was not accurate so we needed to contact the VRBO help line to obtain the correct entrance code. I do not know if that was an owner or VRBO issue, but hopefully that can be remedied in the future.

Although being on the river I think next time we will do it for my birthday so weather is warmer. The house is exactly as listed. Easy check in, fabulous spiral staircase, jetted tub comfy bed.
